Cruise Control: Find Your Perfect Match

By: J5Travel

· Cruises,Luxury,Travel

We are not quite sure why, but our cruise sales for 2025 so far are up around 90% compared to the same period last year. We'd like to think our marketing is somewhat to blame, but I think it runs a lot deeper than that. The incredible variety of ships, cruise lines, and itineraries (both river and ocean) has led to more choice and endless possibilities for luxury travelers to be on the water.

We've found our regular cruisers have strong loyalty to the cruise line they have found is the right fit for them. So, a major task for us is to align new cruisers with their "perfect fit" cruise line right from the start. That's why we do a full (and free) consultation to go through preferences and possibilities with our potential clients. This week's blog article provides yet more examples of the amazing variety of options in the cruise world currently.

1. Regent Seven Seas | Immersive Overnights

Many destinations come alive after dark, offering a completely different atmosphere and range of activities than during the day. Regent's "Immersive Overnights" include exclusive evening shore excursions that often feature:

  • Cultural performances: Geisha dinners, traditional dances.
  • Fine dining: Michelin-star restaurants, gourmet meals at historic villas.
  • Night tours: Seeing iconic landmarks illuminated, exploring lively night markets or neighborhoods.
  • Unique local experiences: Wine tastings at Tuscan villas, private museum visits.

2. Explora Journeys - Alaska 2027

Explora Journeys is a relatively new luxury ocean experience, and their Alaskan journeys should be on your list.

Their soon-to-be-launched third ship, EXPLORA III, will chart a bold course to Alaska’s untamed wilds. Where wildflowers bloom against a backdrop of snow-capped mountains and glaciers, and puffins and whales compete for attention with dolphins and seals, Alaska presents one of the world’s most animated landscapes. Vibrant and varied, Alaska weaves indigenous roots, Russian heritage, Gold Rush history, and the resilience of its modern-day communities.

3. National Geographic-Lindblad Expeditions

In April 2026, National Geographic-Lindblad Expeditions, one of the leaders in modern expedition cruising, sets a new course, bringing its signature style of exploration to European river cruising—a new destination for this leader in modern expedition cruising.

Combine storied European rivers like the Rhine with a brand-new ship and world-class programming inspired by National Geographic. It's an incredible experience you won't want to miss.

4. Ponant 2025

Adventure. Luxury. French.

These three words come to mind when I think of the luxury cruise brand PONANT EXPLORATIONS. They are world leaders in exploration, focusing on sleek, small ships that deliver incredible personalized experiences, both onboard and ashore, in all parts of the world: from refined Mediterranean journeys to polar explorations. What's more, they have availability remaining on several last-minute luxury sailings.

5. Silversea Sale

Our top-selling cruise line has just announced a fairly aggressive sale with 40% off over 600 of their voyages (that's not all of them, please bear in mind).

The details: all-inclusive luxury with butler service in every spacious, ocean-view suite, gourmet dining, included excursions, and intimate small-ship experiences to diverse, often remote, destinations.

Plus, our clients love this cruise line and keep rebooking, and for good reason.
