Seabourn is marking its 30th anniversary with a lineup of special events and new offerings throughout 2018.
“Our 30th anniversary is a wonderful opportunity to celebrate the reputation we’ve built as the world’s premier ultra-luxury cruise line,” said Richard Meadows, president of Seabourn. “Guests will continue to discover intriguing destinations on some of the most desirable ships at sea. As we grow, those opportunities expand as well. For now, we invite guests to relax and enjoy the ultra-luxury innovations and special touches we’ve introduced in honor of our third decade.”
This spring Seabourn expands its fleet from four to five ships with the arrival of Seabourn Ovation. The new ship is designed to deliver an ultra-luxury experience, featuring a high space-per-guest ratio, attentive personalized service, signature dining venues, a mindful living program, and other amenities. Seabourn Ovation’s 11-day inaugural voyage departs Venice on May 5 and concludes in Barcelona. During her maiden season she will sail Northern Europe, offering a mix of seven-day Baltic and Scandinavian cruises as well as 14-day cruises exploring the Norwegian fjords and the British Isles.
To celebrate the anniversary across the fleet, Seabourn is offering special touches for guests, including a limited-edition cocktail called the Passion Pearls. Inspired by Audrey Hepburn, the cocktail blends passion fruit purée, Champagne, Hennessy VSOP Cognac, and complementary ingredients to create a refined, celebratory drink available exclusively on Seabourn.
“Like Seabourn, Audrey’s career carried her around the world and continues to inspire a new generation of travelers who appreciate the simple pleasures of a luxurious lifestyle in the company of like-minded people,” said Brian van Flandern, the mixologist behind the creation.
