2012 Itinerary Change
Brings Crystal Cruises
Home for the Holidays
Due to increased demand for a tropical,
warm weather itinerary in North American waters for the 2012 holiday season,
Crystal Cruises is moving its 2012 holiday cruise on Crystal Serenity from the
Holy Land to the Caribbean.
With
Crystal’s “Save Now, Save Later” promotion, travelers can save 20% on the 2012
all-inclusive Christmas/New Year’s sailing by also booking one of this year’s
holiday voyages by September 15, 2011.
The 2011 holiday cruises to either Hawaii or the Panama Canal/Caribbean
are also value-priced at up to 58% off brochure fares.
President
Gregg Michel explains: “We previously had both our ships in exotic locations
for the 2012 holidays. By now
moving one of our ships closer to home, we offer a combination of North
American and overseas holiday choices.
Plus, guests can save even more by making Crystal their luxury holiday
for two years in a row.”
Departing
on Dec. 21, 2012, the 14-day holiday cruise sails round-trip from Miami for
Tortola; Barbados; St. Lucia; Guadeloupe; St. Maarten; St. Thomas; Ponce,
Puerto Rico (maiden call); and Key West.
The
14-day 2011 holiday voyages, departing December 21, 2011, remain unchanged,
providing options from both U.S. coasts:
■
Hawaii round-trip from LA (Crystal Symphony): Maui; Honolulu; Kauai; Hilo; Enseñada
■ Panama Canal/Caribbean round-trip from
Miami (Crystal Serenity): Cozumel; Grand Cayman; Panama Canal (Gatun);
Cartagena; Antigua; St. Barts; Turks and Caicos.
To
accommodate next year’s change from the Middle East, Crystal’s pre- and
post-2012 holiday cruises have also been revised. Crystal Serenity now makes a Barcelona-Miami Trans-Atlantic
cruise on December 9, 2012, and follows the holidays with a January 4 Caribbean
cruise round-trip from Miami to Tortola, St. Kitts, Point-a-Pitre, St. Lucia,
St. Barts, St. Maarten, and Turks and Caicos.
All
cruises include complimentary airfare from 24 North American gateways (or air
credit), with additional savings for family or friend groups via Crystal’s
Family Memories Program.
