Ambassador Cruise Line Launches Exciting UK to Caribbean Fly-Cruises for Winter 2025-2026

Ambassador Cruise Line has announced its inaugural Caribbean fly-cruise program set for the winter season of 2025-2026. This exciting initiative comes in the wake of a merger with the French company CFC/Compagnie Francaise de Croisieres.

From October 2025 to March 2026, passengers can enjoy 10 fly-cruises on the 1100-passenger vessel, CFC Renaissance, which will be homeported in Bridgetown, Barbados. The majority of the voyages will last 14 nights, with two repositioning cruises (Transatlantic crossings) marking the start and end of the Caribbean season.

Flights will be operated by Virgin Atlantic, departing from the UK (Manchester and London-Heathrow) to Barbados every other Monday. Travelers can choose to upgrade their flight experience to various classes including Economy Delight, Premium, or Upper Class.

The pricing for the 14-night fly-cruise packages starts at GBP 1,799 (approximately USD 2,280 or EUR 2,175) per person. This package includes flights, land transfers, luggage service, and accommodation in a twin stateroom (for two people sharing an inside cabin). Bookings will be managed directly through the Ambassador contact center.

One of the highlighted itineraries is the "Tropical Autumn Escape," scheduled to depart on November 17th, which will visit eight popular Caribbean locations such as St Kitts, Martinique, Antigua, St Maarten, and Curacao.

Additionally, the Transatlantic relocation crossings will consist of an 18-night voyage from London to Bridgetown on October 30, 2025, and a 17-night journey on March 9, 2026, where guests will fly to Barbados and then return to the UK by sea.

Christian Verhounig, CEO of Ambassador Cruise Line, expressed his excitement about this new era for the company. He emphasized that these new itineraries will help them become a leader in the European affordable cruise market while fulfilling the demand for warmer winter travel options.
