Chief commercial officer Terry Thornton said: “This 2026 World Cruise addresses a growing interest in longer voyages that make stops at more exotic destinations and the urge to do it as part of a more all-inclusive experience.

“Our 2026 World Cruise offers our most destination-rich itinerary ever so guests can immerse themselves in a global experience rich with landmarks, ancient ruins, unique landscapes, wildlife, gastronomy, cultures and heritage.”
