Azamara Opens Tailored 2028 World Cruise Segment Bookings

Azamara Unlocks Flexible 2028 World Cruise Options

Azamara Cruises has opened bookings for 14 World Cruise Segments, nine Grand Voyages and six Combination Cruises tied to its highly anticipated 2028 World Cruise. The move gives travellers the freedom to experience portions of the 175‑night circumnavigation aboard Azamara Onward without committing to the full global journey.

Known for its Destination Immersion® experiences and Extended Destination Days, Azamara is framing the 2028 program as a “design‑your‑own” world cruise, with options ranging from a few weeks in one region to multi‑month, multi‑continent adventures. Guests can now book individual segments or extended itineraries that share the same rare ports, overnights and long stays that define the full voyage.

2028 World Cruise: 175 Nights of Immersive Exploration

Sailing for 175 nights aboard Azamara Onward, the 2028 World Cruise crosses six continents and around 40 countries, with a focus on rarely visited ports and extended time ashore. Highlights include remote South Pacific calls such as Easter Island, Pitcairn Island and Komodo Island, as well as extended itineraries in Southeast Asia, Australia and Africa.

The full journey features longer port stays, late‑night departures and multiple overnights in cities like Singapore, Cape Town and Florence, allowing guests to explore by day and evening. World Cruise guests receive a generous inclusions package valued at over USD 37,000 per stateroom, with benefits such as onboard credit, shore excursion credit, premium beverages, Wi‑Fi, laundry and air credit.

14 World Cruise Segments: “Choose Your Own Chapter”

Azamara’s World Cruise Segments carve the 175‑night itinerary into 14 themed chapters that can be booked individually. Each segment mirrors the World Cruise philosophy, offering access to rare destinations, longer stays, overnights and curated cultural experiences in a more compact timeframe.

Examples include:

• Peru, Chile, Pitcairn & French Polynesia (19 Jan – 4 Feb 2028) – A South Pacific chapter from Lima (Callao) to French Polynesia with extended visits to Easter Island and Pitcairn Island, plus iconic ports such as Fakarava, Moorea and Papeete.
• Vietnam, Thailand & Singapore (28 Mar – 10 Apr 2028) – An Asia‑focused itinerary with extended time in Ho Chi Minh City, a double overnight in Bangkok, and calls at Ko Samui and Singapore.
• Australia & Indonesia (1 – 17 Mar 2028) – A segment that includes the Spirit of Australia’s Outback AzAmazing Journey to the Red Centre and Uluru, combining coastal cruising with immersive inland experiences.

These segments are ideal for travellers seeking a “mini” world cruise that fits their calendar while retaining Azamara’s hallmark depth in each destination.

Nine Grand Voyages: 35+ Night Extended Journeys

For guests looking for longer, region‑spanning itineraries, Azamara has created nine Grand Voyages, each 35 nights or more, by linking multiple segments. These extended journeys offer deeper exploration across regions such as Asia, Africa and the South Pacific, often incorporating multiple overnights and a wide mix of cultures and climates.

New for 2028, Grand Voyages come with enhanced inclusions, such as:

• Up to USD 2,000 air credit per person when flights are booked via Azamara Air
• Wi‑Fi for two devices per stateroom
• Premium Beverage Package upgrade for two guests
• Weekly laundry service
• Shore excursion credit that scales with voyage length

These benefits build on Azamara’s standard inclusions—gratuities, select drinks, AzAmazing events and more—creating strong value for extended itineraries.

Six Combination Cruises: Tailored Cross‑Continent Routes

Azamara’s Combination Cruises are curated pairings of World Cruise Segments designed to help guests build seamless, cross‑continental journeys. These six itineraries maintain the exclusivity and destination depth of the World Cruise while adding flexibility for those wanting to link, for example, South Pacific exploration with Southeast Asia, or Australia with New Zealand and beyond.

Combination itineraries are particularly attractive for travellers who want more than a single segment but less than the full 175‑night voyage, offering a sweet spot between time commitment and global scope. Guests still benefit from Azamara’s small‑ship size, which enables access to smaller ports that larger vessels cannot reach.

Signature Destination Immersion® and Extended Days

Across all options—segments, Grand Voyages, Combination Cruises and the full World Cruise—Azamara leans into its Destination Immersion® DNA. This translates into Extended Destination Days, with longer in‑port hours, frequent late departures and overnight stays that support more in‑depth touring, evening experiences and independent exploration.

Cultural immersion is further enhanced by AzAmazing Journeys and AzAmazing Evenings, which may include everything from Machu Picchu pre‑cruise programs to in‑destination performances and special events. Combined with the line’s small‑ship atmosphere and service, these elements aim to make each segment feel like a complete narrative arc rather than a simple repositioning.
