Crystal’s Asia 2014: More sailings, shorter options, and New Year’s in Hong Kong
Crystal Cruises is vastly expanding its presence in the East, growing the number of voyages to Asia eightfold, from four last year to 34 in 2014.
It’s also offering shorter options, starting at five days, for just $1,520 per person.
The 5- to 29-day cruises to China, Japan, Thailand, Singapore, Vietnam, Cambodia, Indonesia, Malaysia and Brunei include a new 2-for-1 airfare bonus for select Crystal Symphony cruises and early booking bonus of up to $2,500 per person for bookings made by August 30, 2013.
In 2014 Crystal will for the first time have two ships in the region, the Crystal Symphony and the Crystal Serenity, in winter, spring and fall; sail from and to Bangkok; and offer a two-week round-trip voyage from Singapore.
Four cruises will sail to or from Bali, and Crystal will make maiden visits to Malacca in Malaysia, Lombok in Makassar/Ujung Pandang, and Surabaya in Indonesia.
A brand-new holiday cruise will sail round-trip from Bangkok, celebrating New Year’s Eve with a spectacular light show in Hong Kong.
Guests can extend their vacation with a preceding voyage beginning in Bali without repeating ports.
