Windstar Cruises said last week marked the highest grossing week of cruise sales since the start of the pandemic and one of the biggest in company history.

The 'Windstar Week Sale' ran May 3-13 with eligible voyages including the Mediterranean, Tahiti, Northern Europe, Alaska, Asia, Greece, Australia/New Zealand and the Holy Lands.

Small ship demand

'We’re optimistic to see this type of booking activity during our Windstar Week Sale which points to a return in demand for vacations and especially small ship cruise vacations,' Windstar President Chris Prelog said. 'People are discovering the advantage of small, yacht-like sailing and all-suite cruising to aspirational destinations.'

Windstar Cruises operates a fleet of six all-suite and sailing yachts carrying 148 to 342 passengers each.
