The recent launch of integrated itineraries from sister companies Crystal and Abercrombie & Kent (A&K) is “just the start” of an era of collaboration between the two, according to AKTG SVP Marketing Strategy Kate Thompson.

Crystal has unveiled its highly-anticipated By Abercrombie & Kent, an exclusive partnership with travel pioneer and sister brand Abercrombie & Kent.

Crystal announced that Crystal Symphony will enter drydock for a three-week refurbishment in November 2025. The project will include some aesthetic and functional updates to two suite categories and several public spaces.

Crystal is welcoming back a familiar face this August, as seasoned entertainment leader Shane Morley returns as Cruise Director aboard Crystal Symphony.

Crystal is offering travellers to explore the world in unparalleled luxury with a new limited-time offer available on select 2025–2027 sailings.

Crystal has taken a major step forward in its fleet expansion, securing funding for two brand-new luxury cruise ships through an export credit facility supported by Italy’s SACE.

Crystal has unveiled the Experience Finder, an innovative new tool designed to help travel advisors quickly and easily explore the exceptional range of shore excursions available to guests sailing aboard Crystal Symphony and Crystal Serenity.

The newly announced Treasures of the Tides 2028 voyage will be Crystal’s most expansive World Cruise to date as well as the first time Crystal Symphony will have sailed a World Cruise itinerary since 2018.

This year will see the debut of The Crystal Cup, an exclusive golf tournament, representing a partnership between Crystal and golf management company Troon.

Crystal has released its collection of itineraries for the second half of 2027 aboard Crystal Serenity and Crystal Symphony. Between July and December, guests can explore more than 90 destinations across four continents, from sailing through the dramatic fjords of Norway to discovering the Chilean coastline and exploring the vibrant markets of North Africa.

Crystal has announced two-time Grammy Award-winning artist, Gloria Gaynor, will return to the sea in 2025 with an exclusive performance on Crystal Serenity.

Abercrombie & Kent, Crystal and Cox & Kings all achieved record sales in 2024, and 2025 has commenced strongly for the A&K Travel Group businesses, says Cristina Levis, Group CEO.
