Seabourn plans big for its 30th birthday, with highlights to look forward to all 2018.

“Our 30th anniversary is a wonderful occasion to celebrate the reputation we’ve earned as the world’s finest ultra-luxury cruise line by providing guests with opportunities to experience the most intriguing destinations around the globe on the most desirable ships at sea,” said Richard Meadows, president, Seabourn. “As we continue to grow, those opportunities will grow as well. For now, though, we invite guests to sit back and soak up the ultra-luxury innovations we’ve pioneered and special touches we’ve created in celebration of our third decade at sea.”

Seaboard expands its fleet from four to five ships this spring, with the addition of Seabourn Ovation. The ship promises an ultra-luxury experience, with a high ratio of space per guest, highly personalized service, signature dining, a mindful living program and more. The 11-day inaugural voyage departs from Venice, May 5, traveling to Barcelona. The rest of her maiden season, the ship is set to cruise Northern Europe with a series of seven-day Baltic and Scandinavian cruises and 14-day voyages to the Norwegian fjords and British Isles.

Across the entire fleet, guests enjoy 30th-anniversary celebratory offerings, such as the Passion Pearls cocktail, exclusively available. The cocktail is inspired by Audrey Hepburn and mixes passion fruit puree, Champagne, Hennessy VSOP Cognac and other ingredients.

“Like Seabourn, Audrey’s career spanned the globe and continues to inspire the next generation of world travelers who enjoy the simple pleasures of a luxury lifestyle in the company of likeminded people of good taste,” explained Brian van Flandern, mixologist.
