Azamara Cruises has unveiled 85 new cruises for its 2028-29 season. Sailing from 29 October 2028 through 19 May 2029, the programme visits 81 countries featuring 210 ports of call, 94 overnight stays and more than 200 late-night departures. Guests can experience the Mediterranean, explore the coastlines of Australia and New Zealand and discover Japan during cherry blossom season on all four ships: the Azamara Onward, Journey, Pursuit and Quest.
Following a multi-year absence from the region, the Azamara Onward will visit 27 countries in Africa and the Indian Ocean, including Jamestown, Saint Helena on 12 December 2028. Other destinations include the Vanilla Islands of the Seychelles, Mauritius, Réunion and Madagascar. The Azamara Journey’s itineraries will visit 16 countries and 65 ports of call in the Mediterranean, Iberia and the Canary Islands, with select itineraries featuring three consecutive days in Alexandria, Egypt.
The Azamara Pursuit will offer an Asia-Pacific season including a journey along Western Australia’s Kimberley Coast and a sailing from Sydney to Singapore featuring Great Barrier Reef gateway destinations. From late March through May 2029, five consecutive Japan Intensive sailings offer itineraries designed to experience cherry blossoms across multiple ports. The Azamara Quest will offer Mediterranean, Transatlantic and Caribbean sailings before transitioning to the 195-day 2029 World Cruise. Guests can take advantage of Azamara’s 30pc Early Booking Bonus.
Mike Pawlus shared “These newly announced cruises reflect what makes Azamara so special, allowing guests to go beyond the expected and experience destinations in a more meaningful way. We’re especially excited to offer guests more opportunities to explore Africa and the Indian Ocean, Australia, New Zealand and Japan, with itineraries featuring destinations such as Western Australia and the Kimberley Coast. From rare port calls to extended stays that allow travelers to connect with local culture, these itineraries are designed to make every destination an integral part of the journey.”
