Back-to-Back Voyages

Many cruises can be extended into Collectors’ Voyages to create the ultimate Caribbean vacation, with more economical fares than if booking the sailings individually. Ranging from 13 to 21 days, these longer sailings combine non-repeating itineraries allowing passengers to see more than one Caribbean region in one trip.

Holiday Cruise

Those who like to get away for the winter holidays have nine holiday-sailings to choose from, which range from seven to 14 days, with a Holiday Collectors’ Voyage extend up to 21 days.

During these special holiday cruises, passengers can take part in a Christmas tree lighting ceremony, enjoy caroling and sing-alongs, participate in Hanukkah celebrations, and enjoy traditional holiday meals and a special Royal Dutch high tea with cookies and pastries. Kids have fun doing holiday crafts and having a visit with Santa Claus.

The New Year’s Eve sailings are a great way to ring in a new year, featuring a festive holiday ball with a champagne toast.

View & Verandah Offer

Those who book by February 28, 2021 can take advantage of the “View & Verandah” offer that includes stateroom upgrades, free beverages, one night of specialty dining, 10 percent off shore excursions, and more.

Caribbean cruises start at $699 per person for a seven-night voyage.
