Seabourn’s next round of ocean itineraries adds new choices for travelers planning a 2029 cruise. In its October 14, 2026 announcement, the line outlined 166 sailings aboard Ovation, Quest and Encore.
Ovation’s Mediterranean season runs from March through November. Selected departures will include an overnight in Alexandria, marking Seabourn’s return to Egypt after more than five years. The program also introduces a call at Kapsali, on the Greek island of Kythira.
Farther north, Quest will offer a new seven-day Gulf of Bothnia route in Sweden and Finland. Its planned first-time calls include Härnösand, Kemi, Rauma and Oulu, expanding the line’s northern Baltic options.
Encore’s Alaska schedule includes seven-day voyages between Juneau and Vancouver from May through September, alongside longer departures. Optional Zodiac and kayaking excursions are separate experiences to consider when comparing itineraries. These are future deployment plans: confirm the ports, overnight stays and excursion availability for the particular sailing rather than assuming every departure includes them.
