Prices start at US $7,499 per person sharing at the time of writing, with all the Middle East voyages, as well as those that call in Middle East ports, operated by Seabourn Encore, the cruise line’s luxury Encore-class ship.
When she was launched in 2016, Seabourn Encore marked a major redevelopment of the fleet by Seabourn as she is 26% larger than Seabourn’s three Odyssey-class vessels, and holds about 34% more passengers.
These Middle East itineraries for 2024 and 2025 were released with a dozen others for the Caribbean, and Asia, which depart between fall 2024 and winter/spring 2025.
Seabourn Ovation will sail to the Caribbean to visit Barbados, Curacao, and St. Maarten, while Seabourn Encore and Seabourn Ovation will take guests on more than 40 unique sailings, including new stops and ports Seabourn has not visited in five years.

Notable ports that Seabourn hasn’t visited in at least five years include not just Abu Dhabi, but also Isabel Segunda, Puerto Rico; Santa Marta, Colombia; Port Antonio, Jamaica; and Kaohsiung and Magong (Makung), Penghu Islands, Taiwan.
The itineraries, which range from seven to 35 days, will offer opportunities for passengers to explore less explored ports, according to Seabourn.
