Celebrity Silhouette entered service in July 2011 as the fourth Solstice-class ship, introducing the Lawn Club Grill and dedicated outdoor Alcoves on the top deck.
Silhouette added meaningful outdoor social zones over the earlier three ships — the Alcoves (private day-cabana pods), the Lawn Club Grill (interactive grill dining), and a redesigned Porch café. The Revolution refit updated her Retreat, AquaClass, and cabins to fleet-current standards.
Deployment splits between UK-based Northern European and Mediterranean summers and a Caribbean winter season from Fort Lauderdale — a second UK-facing option alongside Eclipse.
