Seabourn, despite its relatively short history, has already succeeded in the volatile cruise business. The company has built a good reputation for personalized cruises on small ships with only 450-600 passengers and almost the same number of crew.

 

In 1980, the Norwegian entrepreneur Alla Brinstad, together with the veteran of the maritime business Varen S. Titus, decided to rethink and revive high-class cruises. The benchmark for sea cruises was the relaxed elegance of traveling on an expensive personal yacht. In 1988, the pioneer was the Seabourn Pride, a small ship suitable for mooring in both large ports and picturesque quiet harbors. Even then, Seabourn offered its guests those “conveniences” that would become the company's business card in the future:

 

exceptionally spacious cabins with incredible ocean views;

a wide variety of places for relaxation, communication and entertainment on board;

a retractable platform at the stern that transforms into a kind of jetty for water sports, transforming a simple yacht into a beach resort.

 

Seabourn's guest-centered philosophy is based on the leadership's conviction that a sense of luxury comes first and foremost from choice, and whatever is done at Seabourn, be it ship design, itinerary planning, food and entertainment on board, everything is done with a purpose. provide an opportunity for personal choice anytime, anywhere.
