Small ship cruise line Azamara Club Cruises has announced its first foray in Alaskan waters, coming in 2019.
The line is sending Azamara Quest on a series of 8-10 day Alaska sailings from May and September of 2019.
Its first ever Alaska program will feature more time in port than most other operators with several late night stays, the line says.
Calls include Sitka, Juneau, Skagway, Ketchikan and Victoria BC.
Elsewhere in 2019, Azamara’s two ships will make 45 maiden calls at ports around the world, including first visits to Lorient, France, Newcastle, UK, Boracay Island, Philippines; and Stewart Island, New Zealand.
"Our 2019 itineraries span the world with new ports and destinations such as Alaska and go deeper than ever before into local cultures with one-of-a-kind experiences that you can’t find through local tour services," said Larry Pimentel, president & CEO of Azamara.
"With the new itineraries, we are continuing to build upon our Stay Longer, Experience More brand positioning, with more onshore opportunities."
