Crystal Cruises fits into
the "large-ship luxury line" niche, although the line's two vessels
are considerably smaller than the megaships of today's mass-market lines. (The
Crystal Serenity holds 1,080 passengers, while the Crystal Symphony carries
940 guests each.)
In 2009, Crystal is offering Mediterranean cruises from May
through early November, Northern European voyages from late June through
mid-September, and transatlantic repositioning cruises at the beginning and
end of the season. Crystal has itineraries in the Mediterranean, the Baltic, and Western
Europe.
