– Record UK sales with revenue doubled year-on-year –
Windstar Cruises’ 312-guest all-suite yacht, Star Pride, is getting a spring makeover with a drydock in Amsterdam and to celebrate, the cruise line has launched two agent incentives offering pairs of tickets to the O2 Arena as well as a place on a hosted fam trip sailing from the heart of London. The line also reports record sales in the UK with revenue doubled year-on-year.
- Agents booking any Star Pride cruise departing between 21st April and 22nd May 2026 will receive two tickets for a 2026 show of their choice at the O2 Arena*, featuring premium seating in The NinetyThird Lounge by Qatar Airways as well as priority entry. *Subject to availability and restrictions apply.
- Agents booking three Star Pride cruises departing between 21st April and 22nd May 2026, will not only receive the O2 tickets but will also have the chance to join a hosted fam trip from London, sailing through Tower Bridge to Northern Europe. Capacity is limited and is based on a first-booked, first-served basis. Any subsequent places will be transferred to the next available hosted fam trip.
The incentives will run until 30th March 2026 and are valid on new bookings only. All bookings will also qualify for Windstar’s Cruise Beyond promotion which finishes on 31st March 2026 and offers a complimentary all-inclusive package featuring alcoholic beverages, Wi-Fi and gratuities on select voyages sailing through March 2027.
Augustus Lonsdale, head of sales for Windstar Cruises, comments: “Star Pride’s April and May post-drydock voyages are particularly exciting as they are all new itineraries. This makes these incentives the perfect way to celebrate as well as reward our partners who have contributed to such an amazing start to our year. The first sailings from Amsterdam offer a new take on the famous tulip season and are the ideal way to showcase our appeal to river cruise and city break clients. Following that we’re welcoming Star Pride to London for the first time as a Windstar vessel. It is always special when Windstar yachts sail up the Thames and through Tower Bridge, but this year it carries even greater significance as it not only kicks off our season of short cruises from the capital, but also demonstrates our ongoing commitment to the UK and Irish cruise market.”
Agents who have qualifying bookings will be contacted to arrange their O2 Arena experience, or if they are eager to get started they can contact [email protected]. Fam cruise arrangements will be made directly with agents after the end of the incentive period.
Star Pride’s drydock will take place between 7th and 20th April 2026 and will include updated décor features as well as the introduction of Windstar’s highly-regarded, complimentary speciality restaurant, Basil + Bamboo, which offers a captivating blend of Mediterranean and Asian cuisine.
