On February 20, 2026, the luxury cruise ship Celebrity Infinity experienced a major technical failure causing a complete blackout, leaving approximately 2,000 passengers and crew in darkness for hours. The incident occurred around 2:30 AM as the 25-year-old vessel, en route to Piraeus, Greece, lost control of essential systems and became adrift off the Greek coast. Fortunately, the ship was already near its destination, allowing the coast guard to escort it safely to the port. All passengers disembarked unharmed, and the current cruise was canceled, with Celebrity Cruises also canceling the subsequent 11-day Greece itinerary from February 16-27, 2026, citing necessary maintenance and prioritizing passenger safety. Affected passengers are to receive compensation.
