Cruise and Maritime Voyages has launched their Summer 2018 programme with a new preview brochure having sold 90% of their 2017 capacity. The preview goes on sale 1 March and contains 100 worldwide cruising prospects. For the fast growing, traditional cruise operator it is their earliest programme announcement and goes through to November 2018.
In 2018, CMV enter their ninth year of operations. They will be offering Buy One Get One Free (BOGOF) fares on all summer cruises included in the new programme when booked before 31 May 2017. CMV’s new fleet addition Columbus, which joins the fleet this June, will sail from London Tilbury throughout 2018, meanwhile Astoria is set to return due to popular demand.
Nine British departure ports are featured with Harwich a new addition in 2018. The introduction of Cobh (Cork) will no doubt please Irish passengers.
Chris Coates, commercial director at CMV said ‘Our aim is to reward early bookers so we have issued a preview brochure much earlier. Since adding Magellan and Columbus to the fleet we have increased the number of passengers travelling with us. They in turn re-book and recommend the traditional British cruise experience to their relatives and friends.
‘The new programme is predominantly with no flying involved. Many more people are wishing to cruise from closer to home rather than waste a day out and back at crowded airports. The new CMV brochure makes the decision easy with a choice of nine UK departure ports.’
