Crystal's first ship christening.

"The sheer amount of fares savings, plus the scope of applicable voyages -
even during prime seasons - plus a spending credit on every sailing, makes
this the most significant collection of savings we've ever offered," says
Gregg Michel, Crystal's president. "Our All Inclusive - As You Wish spending
credit on every cruise is the ultimate luxury anniversary gift - to have what
you want, when you want. Our guests have the freedom to choose whatever is
meaningful to them, from soothing spa treatments to boutique shore excursions
to rare wine vintages."
Sailing to 174 ports in 70 countries on 62 voyages, Crystal Cruises' 2010
program will feature a continued emphasis on distinctive destinations and port
intensive itineraries including many overnight calls. New offerings include
maiden calls in Iran, Bahrain and Saudi Arabia on the World Cruise to new
North American cruises to the Sea of Cortez and Hawaii. While most voyages
are 11-13 days in length, Crystal has set 15 cruises at 10 days or fewer.
Several combination cruises sail from 15 to 115 days without ever repeating a
port.
Crystal's 2010 cruise fares begin at $2,165 per person, double occupancy. For
