Crystal Cruises Announces Expanded Collection Of 2017 & 2018 'Crystal Getaways'

In its continued commitment to offer luxury travelers more choices, Crystal Cruises has unveiled an expanded selection of Crystal Getaways—abbreviated voyages derived from longer existing itineraries—for both 2017 and 2018. New to the roster of Getaways are eight shortened segments of Crystal Serenity's 2018 World Cruise voyages, exploring Southeast Asia, the South Pacific, South America, the Pacific Northwest and British Columbia, and the Caribbean. The global voyages range from four to 17 days in length, providing busy travelers options for luxury vacations with reduced investment of time and funds.

"Crystal Getaways are perfectly suited to modern luxury travelers, whose calendars are packed but who relish opportunities to discover new cultures and adventures," says Carmen Roig, Crystal's senior vice president of marketing and sales. "These shortened itineraries help our guests make the most of their travel time, with the same standard of Crystal's award-winning luxury and enriching experiences, at a fraction of the fare of the full voyage."

Combined with existing 2017 Crystal Getaways exploring the Arabian Coast, South Africa and the Caribbean, the newly added 2018 itineraries round out a total of 15 abbreviated worldwide journeys. Guests can discover the glamour of the United Arab Emirates and the wilds of the African savannah; the bustling marketplaces and sacred temples of Vietnam and the famous giant pandas of Chengdu; the crystalline waters of Fiji and waterside jungles of Phuket; and the biological wonders of the Galapagos Islands and colorful culture of Chile.
