Crystal Serenity and Crystal Symphony have both now launched after an extensive refurbishment in 2023. The new Crystal team includes a number of those behind its previous successes, and together with an enhanced onboard experience, they have already made a triumphant return to the ultra-luxury cruise sector.
Our Insight
Now owned by the A&K Travel Group, which has Manfredi Lefebvre, former owner of Silversea Cruises as Co-Chairman, Crystal has returned with their popular classic ocean cruise programme, operated on two ships which, although elderly, were built to a very high specification and have been looked after exceptionally well.
Having undergone extensive refurbishment which has seen the guest accommodation enlarged and the capacity drop from the former 848 guests on board Crystal Symphony and 980 guests on board Crystal Serenity, there is now a huge amount of space, plenty of facilities, and lots of small restaurants and bars.
Key to the group's success, it appears to us, will be the ability to put the core Crystal team and crew back together sufficiently well that their world recognised standards of service are resumed and in this we are confident that they will be successful.
