 CROWN CRUISE COLLECTION OFFERING SILVERSEA “PASSPORT TO LUXURY” PROMOTION CRUISES

PRINCETON, NJ (March 3, 2011) -- Crown Cruise Collection is offering ultra-luxury Silversea Cruises’ “Passport to Luxury" promotion with the addition of 30 new voyages offering Onboard Spending Credits of up to $1,000 per suite ($500 per person). This means most voyages (over 90) in 2011 now feature the promotion. These enticing offers are available on new bookings made by June 30, 2011. 

"With Onboard Spending Credits of up to $1,000 per suite now offered on most sailings this year, travelers essentially hold a 'passport to luxury' that lets them enjoy a completely personalized, all-inclusive vacation experience," said Ross Spalding, President of Crown Cruise Collection.

For those interested in taking a French cooking class … or surprising a loved one with a gift from the onboard boutique, the choice is there.

Silversea guests can craft their own luxury experience -- treat yourself to an oriental aroma stone massage at the onboard spa while sailing to Asia. Hire a private car and driver in St. Tropez to explore the glamorous Riviera. Or savor an exquisite six-course dinner in Le Champagne -- the only Relais & Châteaux wine restaurant at sea.

Onboard Spending Credit options include:

Spa treatments 
Specialty restaurants 
Premium spirits and rare vintages from the Connoisseur's List 
Silver Shore excursions (none are excluded) 
Boutique purchases 
Internet packages

Personal fitness training
