SUMMARY
Seabourn Sojourn is an ultra-luxury cruise ship.
Seabourn prides itself on its high service standards and the quality of its offering. Most things are included in the price of the cruise. Sojourn is the second ship in Seabourn's Odyssey class of ships. She was built in Italy at the T. Mariotti yard in Genoa. At 32,000 gross tons, she is much larger than the ships that made up the Seabourn fleet prior to the coming of Seabourn Odyssey. However, she is still much smaller than the ships being built by the premium and mass market cruise lines. There are two reasons for her small size. First, Seabourn built its reputation on providing a yacht-style cruise experience. Keeping the ships small helps to retain that feeling of intimacy and exclusivity. Second, the small size enables Sojourn to go places where the larger cruise ships cannot go. This is important because people interested in ultra-luxury cruising tend to be experienced travelers who do not want to go to just the big name ports but to places off-the-beaten track as well. While Sojourn is relatively small, good use has been made of the space. Her terraced superstructure enables there to be a good amount of outdoor space. Inside, she has restaurants, a show lounge, casino, bars, library, Internet, and shops. In short, the features one would expect to find on a modern cruise ship. The interior is not the opulent luxury of the classic ocean liners. Rather, it is modernistic with smooth clean lines. It sparkles in places but does not dazzle. The public areas are generally understated in a contemporary elegance. The objective is to create an atmosphere that foster sociability as on a yacht. Sojourn roams the world. Her schedule takes her around the tip of South America, to the Mediterranean, to Canada and New England and to the Caribbean. |
