Azamara Cruises Announces New Deployment for Azamara Journey
Miami - (January 08, 2008 ) - Deluxe cruise line Azamara Cruises has
announced new itineraries for Azamara Journey beginning in the fall of
2008. On November 12, 2008, the ship will sail a new, 12-night Western
Mediterranean cruise roundtrip from Barcelona. On December 3, 2008,
the ship will sail from Barcelona on a 15-night transatlantic voyage
concluding in Miami, where Azamara will present two new, 16-night
Panama Canal sailings, followed by a series of 12-night exotic
Caribbean cruises through March 2009, when the ship will relocate to
Europe. Azamara Journey will retain its current, published itinerary
lineup until the November 12 sailing. The new deployment replaces the
itineraries previously announced for Azamara Journey in South America
from December 2008 through March 2009. "Demand from both our travel
agent partners and guests for our new Asia and exotic Caribbean
cruises has led us to focus on these markets in lieu of South America
and a world cruise," said Azamara’s President and CEO Dan Hanrahan.
These changes will replace Azamara's previously announced 2008-2009
sailings in South America and world cruise in 2010. Azamara Cruises
plans to announce details of its 2010 cruise itineraries for both
Azamara Journey and Azamara Quest in late March or early April.
The name "Azamara" is a coined term, rooted in Romance language
references to blue ("aza"), the sea ("mar"), and a lesser-known word,
"acamar," which, in Classical times, was the southernmost bright star
that could be seen from the latitude of Greece. Azamara Cruises views
its brand as "a bright star on the deep blue sea." Azamara Cruises
unlocks the hidden corners of the world for those who desire to
immerse themselves in the rich details of every voyage. The deluxe
ships – Azamara Journey and Azamara Quest – offer an intimate
experience, while allowing access to exotic destinations experienced
travelers long to reach. For the 694 guests on each Azamara Cruises
ship, every moment at sea embodies the pinnacle of luxury, and each
footstep on shore accentuates the difference between visiting a place
and getting a true sense of place. Visit Azamara Cruises website for
more information. This year, Azamara Cruises presents the best of
South America and the Panama Canal, elite Asia, the most captivating
Caribbean and enchanting Europe. To book cruises, guests are invited
to call their travel agent. |
