Inaugural season launch for Seven Seas Splendor was the driving factor in the record booking day.
Upon opening reservations for its newest luxury ship, Seven Seas Splendor, Regent Seven Seas Cruises reports the best single booking day in the brand’s 26 year history, accounting for a 32% increase over the previous all-time high on inaugural season launch day for Seven Seas Explorer in January 2015.

The cruise line identified the impending arrival of Seven Seas Splendor as the driving force, not only for record bookings for the new ship's inaugural season, but it also had strong reservations across the other four ships in the fleet, Seven Seas Explorer, Seven Seas Navigator, Seven Seas Mariner and Seven Seas Voyager.

'The response to Seven Seas Splendor’s inaugural season has been incredible, bringing in even more bookings than the Explorer did on her launch day, proving that the demand among both past and new guests continues to grow,' said Jason Montague, president and chief executive officer of Regent Seven Seas Cruises.

'It’s especially encouraging that we’ve only released Splendor’s first 10 voyages; I’m looking forward to seeing our guests’ reactions when we announce the 2020-21 schedule later this year.'

When Seven Seas Splendor launches in 2020, it will sport 375 all-balcony suites ranging from the 307sq ft, entry-level Veranda Suite, to the lavish 4,443sq ft Regent Suite.
