Crystal Mozart leaving Crystal River Cruises fleet

Crystal River Cruises’ launch ship, the Crystal Mozart, is leaving the fleet next year.

The vessel is joining Genting Cruise Lines for a new as-yet undisclosed cruise venture.

Details of this will be announced at a later date.

The Mozart’s last voyage as a Crystal vessel departs Vienna to Budapest on December 2, 2019.

"Crystal Mozart set the stage for Crystal River Cruises’ debut as its inaugural ship in the summer of 2016, and we are pleased to see her carrying onward with Genting Cruise Lines," said Crystal president and CEO Tom Wolber.

With Mozart’s departure, Crystal will have the youngest fleet of four identical river ships – Crystal Bach, Crystal Debussy, Crystal Mahler and Crystal Ravel.

All four vessels launched within the last two years.

"Crystal River Cruises’ ships are not only the newest in the industry, they are the only to feature all-suite, all-balcony accommodations with every room category situated above the water line and offering Crystal’s signature personal butler service," Wolber said.

"While the new ships’ itineraries vary, our guests and travel advisors will now find a uniform ship experience across the full fleet."
