Crystal announced in a press release the dates for its 2026 itineraries ahead of the official launch.
“We recognize that our loyal guests are eagerly awaiting the release of our 2026 itineraries,” said Cristina Levis, CEO of A&K Travel Group.
“Our team has been diligently working to craft the most exceptional and unforgettable travel experiences for our guests, from experiencing Japan’s stunning Cherry Blossoms during peak season to a complete solar eclipse in Western Europe. We are confident that the upcoming itineraries will exceed expectations and provide unparalleled adventures for all.”
The 2026 cruises will feature exploration and cultural immersion opportunities, with exclusive experiences curated by local experts through Crystal’s partnership with Abercrombie & Kent. Destinations include Indonesia, Japan and East Africa, Baja and California, among others.
The Crystal Symphony will return to the US for the first time since 2019 for a season of Alaska voyages, followed by Canada and East Coast sailings, and ending the year with Caribbean holiday sailings. After its World Cruise, the Crystal Serenity will remain in the Mediterranean and Northern Europe, then cross the Panama Canal to explore the Pacific Coast of Central and South America before arriving in California for the holidays. It will then start the 2027 World Cruise from San Diego.
On August 27, 2024, individual cruise segments for the first two quarters will be released for the Crystal Serenity and Crystal Symphony. By the first week of December 2024, all remaining 2026 itineraries for both ships will be available to book.
