Ultra-luxury cruise line Regent Seven Seas Cruises enjoyed its biggest single booking day for the launch of a brand new ship when it opened reservations for the Seven Seas Prestige last 26th June.
Bookings exceeded Regent’s previous record new ship launch day when the Seven Seas Splendor went on sale in 2018 by 26 percent.
In addition, the Skyview Regent Suite, available at US$25,000 per suite per night, sold out on 6 of 13 available sailings in its inaugural season, which is the best performance of a top tier product the cruise line has ever experienced on an opening day.
Regent Seven Seas Cruises' chief luxury officer Jason Montague expressed delight over the phenomenal results produced by the new ship, noting that he and his team knew that luxury travelers were extremely eager to reserve their suite aboard the vessel.
Montague said: “Seven Seas Prestige promises to begin a new legacy for the entire ultra-luxury cruise sector, and we cannot wait until she joins the fleet in December 2026. I’d like to thank our valued guests and Travel Partners, as well as Regent’s highly talented and professional teams around the world who all contributed to this fantastic achievement.”
A whole new legacy
Set for delivery in late 2026, Seven Seas Prestige begins a new legacy for Regent Seven Seas Cruises as the brand’s first new ship class in a decade.
Built by Fincantieri, the 77,000-tonne vessel is 40 percent larger than previous ships yet accommodates just ten percent more in terms of guests as it welcomes 822 guests with 630 crew for exceptional space and service.
All-balcony suites span 12 categories, including four new designs such as the two-level Skyview Suites and the 8,794-sq ft Skyview Regent Suite, the largest all-inclusive, ultra-luxury cruise ship suite in history.
Guests will enjoy The Most Inclusive Luxury Experience, with unlimited shore excursions, fine wines and spirits, valet laundry, Starlink WiFi, and cuisine across seven specialty restaurants and 11 dining experiences in total, including new mezze-style Mediterranean concept Azure.
The ship’s inaugural season features 13 voyages across the Caribbean and Europe, visiting boutique ports like Cartagena and St. Lucia, on top of multiple overnight stays in port.
