Luxury Cruises 2028
Discover our collection of luxury cruises in 2028 and book early to benefit from The Cruise Line’s exclusive fares and special offers.
2028 offers an incredible array of opportunities to explore the world in luxury. From ultra-luxury lines like Silversea and Regent Seven Seas Cruises, which include almost everything in the fare, to small-ship specialists such as Windstar Cruises and Atlas Ocean Voyages. For the more adventurous, 2028 brings expanded expedition programmes with Lindblad Expeditions and Ponant. And for a slower pace, multi-city river cruises with AmaWaterways, Scenic and Uniworld offer a different kind of luxury altogether.
New luxury cruise ships in 2028
With new ships arriving from the likes of Viking, Crystal and Scenic, 2028 has plenty to look forward to. Whether you’re new to cruising and looking to book your first voyage, or a loyal guest wanting to try something different, here are the debuts scheduled through the year:
- Viking Lyra (Viking Ocean Cruises): January 2028
- Four Seasons II (Four Seasons Yachts): April 2028
- Scenic Ikon (Scenic Ocean Cruises): April 2028
- Crystal Grace (Crystal Cruises): June 2028
- Explora VI (Explora Journeys): Summer 2028
- Emerald Xara (Emerald Cruises): 2028
Crystal Grace is the one we’re most excited about. She’s the first ocean ship Crystal has built since Crystal Serenity in 2003, so this is a brand-new vessel from a line whose loyal guests have waited a quarter of a century for one. Four Seasons II is the other notable arrival, introducing multi-bedroom Yacht Residential Suites that don’t have an obvious equivalent anywhere else at sea. And Explora VI completes the six-ship fleet that Explora Journeys has been building at pace since 2023.
Why choose us for your 2028 cruise
At The Cruise Line, we work in partnership with over thirty of the world’s leading ocean, river and expedition cruise operators, which gives you access to exclusive pricing, early booking savings and added benefits like onboard credit across a wide range of 2028 luxury cruises. It’s something we’ve refined over the past 30 years, and with a team of specialists who have personally experienced almost every operator we sell, you’ll get advice from someone who’s actually been onboard.
When to book your 2028 luxury cruise
We always advise our clients to book early, especially if they have their eye on a new ship or interesting itinerary. It’s a common misconception that cruise fares reduce closer to departure, and on luxury ships the opposite tends to happen. Suite inventory is limited, the best categories go first, and prices climb as ships fill.
Booking a 2028 sailing now means the full choice of departure dates and suite grades is still open to you, along with the low deposit options most lines offer this far out. The sailings that reach capacity first are the ones you’d expect: world cruises, Antarctica departures, and anything with a maiden voyage attached to it.

Luxury cruises from the UK in 2028
For convenience, it’s hard to beat sailing out of the UK. No airports, no baggage restrictions, no hassle. You arrive at the port and your holiday starts within minutes. It’s a popular choice with our clients, and it’s easy to see why.
Several lines are offering luxury no-fly cruises from the UK in 2028, including regular departures throughout the year aboard Cunard’s Queen Anne and Queen Victoria. Regent Seven Seas, Explora Journeys and Seabourn will all operate round-trip cruises from Southampton to Northern Europe, while Azamara spends much of the summer working its way around Western Europe in the port-intensive style the line is known for.
If you don’t mind flying, we also offer a wide range of luxury fly-cruises departing throughout 2028. The hardest part is deciding where to go and who to sail with, so call our Voyage Consultants on 0800 008 6677, and we’ll talk you through the options.

Where to go on a luxury cruise in 2028
Almost anywhere! The 2028 programmes span every continent, from familiar favourites to the sort of remote coastlines that only a handful of ships can reach.
The Mediterranean and Northern Europe remain the most popular choices for our UK clients, with the Caribbean and Indian Ocean picking up the winter months. Longer, slower journeys through Asia and South America suit anyone with time to spend, and expedition sailings to Antarctica and the Arctic continue to sell out earliest of all.
2028 is also a strong year for world cruises, with full circumnavigations of four months or more available across several luxury lines. These open for booking further ahead than anything else and rarely have late availability, so if a world voyage is on your list, we’d recommend you get in touch at your earliest convenience to benefit from the best fares and offers.
