Atlas Ocean Voyages is now including one shore excursion at every port.

This means 285 included 'Atlas Ashore' options at 107 ports in the Holy Land, the Black Sea, Mediterranean, Caribbean and South America.

Previously, the line had offered the excursion in every port with a promotion for bookings made by the end of 2020.

Plus, reduced deposit, upgrade and more for booking before April

Additionally, travelers who make a new booking between now and March 31 will get a 50% reduced deposit, free one stateroom-category upgrade and an additional $600 per stateroom, based on double-occupancy, to apply toward pre-cruise purchases of additional shore excursions.

'Atlas Ocean Voyages is already one of the industry’s most-inclusive luxury brands and we now deliver even greater value to all of our guests with the new Atlas Ashore program,' President Alberto Aliberti said.

'Atlas Ashore was initially conceived as a limited-time offer, but the strong response from travelers and our valued travel advisor partners convinced us that it should be a fundamental part of our product definition,' added Brandon Townsley, VP sales and trade partnerships. 'Our "All Inclusive All The Way" commitment includes most everything and helps make doing business with Atlas easy for travel advisors.'

Flexible booking policy

In addition, the line's 'Plan With Confidence' flexible policy provides a 100% refund of deposited funds up to 91 days prior to sailing should travelers cancel. Canceling at least 15 days before the departure date ensures a 100% future cruise credit. Plus, travelers may change their reservation as many times as they want, up to 15 days before their sailing date.

World Navigator is scheduled to enter service in July.
