The Crystal Cruises 2009 "world cruise" is a round-trip, but it only circles the Pacific. So it's not really a world cruise, but sounds great anyway.

2009 Crystal World Cruise

The 2009 Crystal Cruises world cruise makes a round-trip from Los Angeles. It's not a full around-the-world cruise, but really more of a grand voyage. It circles the Pacific in 105 days.

The 2009 world cruise is divided into 7 segments of 11 to 22 days. The first segment from Los Angeles to Moorea departs January 21. The following segments are from Papeete to Auckland, Auckland to Sydney, Sydney to Singapore, Singapore to Hong Kong, Hong Kong to Yokohama, and Yokohama back to Los Angeles. It's a terrific itinerary even if it doesn't circle the globe.

There's more to a World Cruise than special destinations, great service and fine dining. World Cruise guest lecturers and celebrities include entertainers, journalists and authors. Meet and hear noted experts on art and culture, and historians who will share their insights and anecdotes about the cruise's destinations. It's just another part of the wonderful experience that is a Crystal World Cruise.
