Regent Seven Seas Announces 2010 World Cruise

Regent Seven Seas Cruises announced details of the 2010 World Cruise –the line’s 10th- on the 700-guest Seven Seas Voyager. “This is truly the best way to see the world -- from the luxury of a medium-sized ship sailing in the company of just hundreds of fellow world travelers,” said Mark Conroy, president of RSSC.

“Our 2010 World Cruise will visit a whole new area of the world for us and be more inclusive than ever.” The 119-night World Cruise departs San Diego on Jan. 14, 2010, after a gala event on the evening of Jan. 13 featuring an exclusive performance for full World Cruise guests by Jay Leno and The Beach Boys.

The cruise can be purchased as a four-month odyssey or in five shorter segments or in combinations thereof. The five segments are: Jan. 14 to Feb. 6, 23 nights from San Diego to Sydney, Australia, crossing the Pacific Ocean to the Marquesas Islands, Samoa, Fiji and New Caledonia; Feb. 6 to 25, 19 nights from Sydney to Singapore, visiting Eastern and Northern Australia, and Komodo, Bali and Semarang in Indonesia; Feb. 25 to March 11, 14 nights from Singapore to Hong Kong, visiting Brunei, the Philippines, and Shanghai and Xiamen in China; March 11 to April 15, 35 nights from Hong Kong to Cape Town, visiting Vietnam, Thailand, Malaysia, across the Indian Ocean to the Maldives, the Seychelles, Kenya, Zanzibar, and Richards Bay and Durban in South Africa; and April 15 to May 12, 28 nights from Cape Town to Fort Lauderdale, visiting Namibia and a new cruising area for RSSC –Benin, Togo, Ghana, the Gambia and Cape Verde Islands in West Africa, and across the Atlantic Ocean to Barbados, Antigua, Tortola and the Turks and Caicos.

Guests wishing to truly circumnavigate the globe can purchase a 16-night pre-World Cruise voyage through the Caribbean and Panama Canal departing Dec. 28, 2009, from Fort Lauderdale to San Diego for a 135-night voyage, returning to Fort Lauderdale on May 12, 2010.
