Luxury Cruise News / 2027 Brand Guide / Small-ship and yacht cruising
A wider winter map, without large-ship scale
Windstar's winter 2027/28 announcement spans Tahiti, Asia, the Caribbean, the Panama Canal, the Canary Islands and Morocco. The appeal is a smaller ship and a route closer to the destination.
2027 itinerary highlights
The season runs from September 2027 to April 2028 and includes new itineraries and a South Pacific crossing. Sailing vessels and motor yachts offer different versions of the experience.
Who should put it on the shortlist?
Travellers who prefer casual yacht-style cruising and destination variety. Do not assume the base fare matches a fully inclusive luxury line.
Before you book
Verify drinks, Wi-Fi, gratuities and shore activities in the selected package. The launch offer in the February 2026 release expired in April 2026; it is not presented as a current deal.
