Dimitrios has more than three decades experience sailing with Celebrity Cruises, having started as an apprentice officer onboard Celebrity’s very first vessel, Horizon, in 1990.
Tasos, meanwhile, grew up watching his older brother making a career on cruise ships, and realised he wanted to follow in his footsteps, joining Celebrity Cruises in 1998. Most recently he served as captain of Celebrity Edge.
Celebrity Cruises president and chief executive Lisa Lutoff-Perlo said: "Seeing their emotional reaction to this appointment and understanding what it means to share this pinnacle of their career together was something I didn’t expect and will never forget."
