Crystal Cruises trying to meet multi-generational travel demand

To accommodate increased demand, Crystal Cruises has added to Crystal Serenity 20 third berth accommodations, representing a 15% increase.  

“In time for the busy summer season and the rise in family travel, Crystal is introducing new in-room sofas that fold out to single beds in the sitting areas of several categories of staterooms,” the company says.

The changes reflect current trends and expand flexible travel options for future sailings, including Crystal Serenity’s upcoming Thanksgiving voyage in which kids sail free.
Crystal Serenity now features 157 flexible third-berth travel options in every category and on every passenger deck, including all Penthouse Suites and many Deluxe Staterooms with private verandas and picture windows. 

Every passenger deck also offers a variety of staterooms and suites with connecting capabilities, including a number with third berth capacity, expanding the options for extended groups of families and friends traveling together.
“The popularity of family and multi-generational travel is one of the year’s top travel trends,” said Bill Smith, Crystal’s senior vice president, sales and marketing.  “Families seeking great style and service, especially in overseas travel, appreciate our spacious ships and destination-rich itineraries.”
