For the third year in a row, Regent Seven Seas Cruises broke the company’s world cruise opening day booking record. The 2024 World Cruise sold out around 11 a.m. on July 14, after going on sale that morning at 8:30 a.m. Fares started at $73,499 per guest for a deluxe veranda suite, up to $199,999 per guest for a master suite.
“With a waitlist longer than we have ever experienced, we knew that the 2024 World Cruise was going to be popular, but this outstanding response has surpassed all expectations and is without a doubt our strongest world cruise launch day ever,” said Jason Montague, president and chief executive officer, Regent Seven Seas Cruises. “Remarkably, we’ve found that interest hasn’t just come from our past guests, and we have seen a strong increase in first-time travelers with Regent, many of whom were keen to book the higher end of our suites.”
At close to five months and 34,500 nautical miles, Regent Seven Seas Cruises’ “Navigate the World” begins Jan. 6, 2024, from Miami, Florida, on Seven Seas Mariner. The cruise will visit 66 ports of call across 31 countries and four continents, including Central America, the U.S. West Coast, Hawai’i, the South Pacific, Australia, New Zealand, the Middle East, Southeast Asia, the Indian subcontinent, the Mediterranean and Bermuda. The cruise includes more than 132 nights, 442 free shore excursions, access to 61 UNESCO World Heritage sites, 12 in-port overnight stays and crossings of both the Panama Canal and Suez Canal.
