CFC announced that it concluded its Mediterranean season in October.

The company saw an average occupancy rate of 80 percent across the eight cruises that it offered from Marseille from August 16 to October 18, 2025, and said it carried just over 8,000 guests.

According to the press release, five cruises were fully booked this year:

  • “Kings and Emperors” from August 16 to 23
  • “Island History and Tunisia” from August 23 to 30
  • “Aegean Epic” from August 30 to September 10
  • “Adriatic Treasures” from September 10 to 20, and
  • The mini-cruise “Corsican and Sardinian Festivals” from September 20 to 23.

 

The company said in a press release that the Renaissance is now on its first Atlantic crossing and will sail in the Caribbean starting later this month.

“The Mediterranean program was a great success. We are concluding this season with a high occupancy rate. We are now focusing on cruises in the Caribbean, which are experiencing a very successful first commercial season,” said Maëlysse Pierrot-Guibourt, president of CFC Cruises.

“Transatlantic routes are (in high demand), and the Caribbean cruises planned for the end of the year and throughout January are currently the most popular,” added Pierrot-Guibourt.

The company said that its next Mediterranean deployment will offer seven cruises sailing between August 11 and October 10, 2026.

Destinations on the itinerary include Sicily, Corsica, the Balearic Islands, Croatia and Greece.
