TWO Azamara ships sailed into Sydney Harbour yesterday (pictured), for the first time in the cruise line’s history.
Azamara Onward led the way, docking in White Bay, followed by Azamara Pursuit, which treated guests and onlookers to a 360-degree twirl.
Both vessels are boasting nearly full bookings in Australia this season, underscoring Azamara’s commitment to the region.
“We are absolutely delighted to welcome both Azamara Pursuit and Azamara Onward to Sydney,” Director of Sales Victoria Chigwidden said.
“This historic event marks a significant milestone for Azamara as we continue to expand our presence in the Australia and New Zealand market.
“The strong demand for these itineraries reaffirms our guests’ desire for authentic, culturally rich experiences in this remarkable region.”
Azamara celebrated the moment with the Australian travel cruise sector, hosting a cocktail party on board Pursuit.
Guests were welcomed onto the ship with drinks, before hearing updates from Azamara leaders, and enjoying an exclusive medley of entertainment, including a sample of what pax enjoy on the cruise line’s famous White Nights.
Both ships spent the night in Sydney, with Onward to today sail for Eden, and Pursuit to begin a new itinerary to Singapore, stopping next in Mooloolaba. MS
