Crystal Cruises’ Post

We are pleased to share that we have signed a Memorandum of Agreement (MOA) with Italian shipbuilder FINCANTIERI. This agreement marks the commencement of the construction of two groundbreaking ships that will redefine high-end travel on the seas. The 690-passenger, 61,800-gross-ton ships will feature a host of amenities and innovative designs, ensuring unparalleled comfort and indulgence for guests. Guests will be thrilled to find a promenade extending the ship perimeter, along with a variety of dining options, showcasing an array of world-class cuisines including Umi Uma, the only Nobu at sea as well as recently announced Beefbar Global. We will also continue our legacy of offering exclusive entertainment along with the recently announced Casino de Monte-Carlo.

Manfredi Lefebvre, Cristina Levis, and the entire Crystal family join Silversea Cruises in paying our heartfelt respects to Captain Marco Sangiacomo, following his recent passing. His legacy and leadership will be deeply missed by all who knew him. In his honor, both Crystal Symphony and Crystal Serenity are navigating at half-mast today.

We are pleased to announce an exclusive collaboration with Monte-Carlo Société des Bains de Mer and the return of the casinos on board our Crystal ships. Experience the elegance and excitement of Monte-Carlo’s renowned casino, debuting on Crystal Symphony during our Chairmen’s Cruise on Nov. 14th and on Crystal Serenity this December. Thank you to The Points Guy for the incredible feature around the announcement. https://lnkd.in/gakfP-83    #CrystalAtSea #ExceptionalAtSea #WeAreMonteCarlo #MyMonteCarlo 

Cheers to National Martini Day and the beautiful Vesper Martini on both Crystal Serenity and Crystal Symphony. Thank you Aly Walansky of Forbes for highlighting that the drink “would make James Bond proud.” Crystal’s Corporate Bar & Service Manager, Ross Martin, added “The Vesper is a Crystal classic and favorite amongst guests. This martini was first mentioned in the Casino Royale novel in 1953 by Ian Fleming as James Bond’s preferred drink.” https://lnkd.in/ePh7sZsB #CrystalAtSea #ExceptionalAtSea

"Crystal, who last year gave sushi lovers something to be excited about by relaunching a Nobu concept at sea, is now doing the same for cruise-loving carnivores. The upscale cruise line is going to be launching the first Beefbar at sea, due to open later this year. The Beefbar at sea will include many classics from the menu that fans of the restaurant will expect to find, such as kobe tacos made with angus beef, avocado, Kobe beef butter, and habanero or kobe sliders in the form of adorable mini beef bacon burgers as well tartare & tartine, an app comprised of veal bites, sesame, and praline gaufrette." Read more of what Aly Walansky of Forbes has to say about the menu items, this collaboration and what you can expect onboard both Crystal Serenity and Crystal Symphony. https://lnkd.in/eSUzRErR #CrystalAtSea #BeefBarCrystal

"Unlike cruise lines that run the same itineraries over and over for a few seasons, Crystal keeps its ships on the move. This may be partly due to the fact that the line has a number of customers who book back-to-back sailings; with so much variety, such cruisers won't repeat ports."

Our Kim Guimaraes spoke with Erica Lamberg of Fox Business Network on hotel versus cruise vacations. "On upscale cruises, not only are guests receiving white-glove service around the clock, but they are also getting premium dining experiences, top-shelf spirits and wines, award-winning entertainment and innovative guest programming included in their cost." Read more about the amenity, value, room choice, all-inclusive options and transportation comparisons. https://lnkd.in/eCcyhwBD #CrystalAtSea #ExceptionalAtSea 

Thank you, The Telegraph's Sandy Cadiz Smith, for highlighting our Rome to Monte Carlo sailing—a journey that highlights not only a beautiful part of the world but also one 'steeped in over two millennia of history and its contribution to the world’s culture and civilization is quite simply staggering.' https://lnkd.in/e3XF9yuT #CrystalAtSea #ExceptionalAtSea #UniqueExperiences
