Luxury cruise line Regent Seven Seas Cruises has announced a new 1-day cruise sales record. This happened on October 21, 2020 after the publication of the cruise itineraries for 2021 and 2022.

 

How is this possible in a pandemic?

 

We also asked this question, because at the moment, for the citizens of Ukraine, quite a few countries remain closed.

 

According to the cruise experts of Four Gates Ukraine, this demand is caused by the following factors:

 

• Deferred demand. During the year of the pandemic, most people around the world were tired of the restrictions caused by the pandemic. Even in Ukraine, the number of people willing to go on cruises is increasing. Every day we receive calls from both regular customers and new ones with the same question: when will the cruises resume?

 

• Target audience of Regent Seven Seas Cruises. Since the cruise company RSSC provides luxury cruises, it has its own regular audience of tourists who always book cruises in advance. Guests on RSSC cruise ships prefer longer, exclusive cruises and are accustomed to traveling frequently.

 

• Diversification of quarantine restrictions. As you know, cruises are available for citizens of the European Union since August 2020. Other countries are also opening for travel. This fact increases the confidence for many Regent Seven Seas Cruises clients that cruises will indeed be operated;

 

• Cruise dates. The company has provided the opportunity to book cruises for 2021, 2022 and 2023. Obviously, in November 2020 all cruise routes will not be available yet. But already in 2021, the entire industry will be launched and cruise companies of all classes will increase the number of routes and liners;

 

• Sizes of liners. Cruises with Regent Seven Seas Cruises are even safer due to the size of the cruise ships and the number of passengers on board. (For more information about cruise ships by LINK);

 

• Booking conditions. The cruise line has always had an early booking incentive policy. With cruises from Regent Seven Seas Cruises, you can rest assured that the sooner you book, the better value you get. Cruise prices and booking conditions have also become attractive.

 

Already these above factors confirm the words of the President and CEO of Regent Seven Seas Cruises - Jason Montague:

 

“The overwhelming response to our 2022–2023 Voyage collection demonstrates the incredible future demand for unmatched Regent experience. Luxury travelers just can't wait to get back on the cruise to see the world again while enjoying impeccable personalized service on luxury and spacious ships. ”

 

Taking into account the experience of past years, we know that cruises on exclusive routes, which are made by the company's liners, are in very high demand. Every year it was harder to book a cruise on RSSC liners due to the lack of free cabins. Unfortunately, our tourists are not so used to booking cruises in advance as Europeans or North American residents. A few months before the cruise, there are simply no places on the most interesting routes.

 

We are waiting for the opening of even larger countries for Ukrainians and new travels!
