Boutique ocean cruise line Azamara has released a short-life promotion offering a single category upgrade for new bookings made on select sailings between now and 14 July 2022.

Azamara Journey returned to service last week in the Mediterranean, signalling the entire fleet restart for Azamara and the upmarket cruise line’s four ships.

Azamara has confirmed it will partner with Versonix Seaware for its new booking platform to launch in early 2023, and exclusively foreshadowed by LATTE earlier this month.

Azamara is confident its boutique ship will operate near or at capacity when Azamara Quest returns to local waters at the end of 2022.

Azamara President Carol Cabezas believes the separation of the boutique cruise brand from the Royal Caribbean Group (RCG) is enabling a partnership with Virtuoso to flourish.

Azamara is likely to reveal its next stage of fleet expansion before the end of the calendar year, ahead of the launch of an all-new reservation system that will eliminate guest leakage to ex-Royal Caribbean sister brands.

Azamara President Carol Cabezas used tinted glasses to hide her tears as she christened Azamara Onward at a christening ceremony in Monaco overnight.

Azamara is set to introduce its newest ship, Azamara Onward, to the world in the coming days with a christening and maiden voyage from Monte Carlo to Venice.

Azamara has been forced to withdraw Venice as its homeport in the Italian city for 2022, relocating its berthing option to Bologna (Ravenna) – about 2.5 hours away by road.

Beth Santos, Founder and CEO of global community and lifestyle brand Wanderful, has been revealed as the Godmother of Azamara’s newest ship, Azamara Onward.

Azamara has confirmed it will operate a 155-night World Voyage from Fort Lauderdale to Barcelona aboard the company’s newest ship, Azamara Onward. The round the world cruise will depart Florida on 5 January 2024 and will visit six continents, including Australia, exploring 40 countries and featuring 22 overnight stays and 27 late nights in port.
