The relaunched Crystal will begin homeporting from Port Everglades in November 2024 with the refurbished Crystal
Serenity.

Crystal said it will announce 2025 itineraries later this year, and that will include Port Everglades for turnaround days.

“We are excited to make our return to Port Everglades,” said Crystal vice president of port operations and itinerary planning Spyros Almpertis. “More than three million guests sail out of Fort Lauderdale each year, and we are happy to now be an option when looking for an exceptional cruising experience.”

The Serenity is currently undergoing a remodeling at Fincantieri’s shipyard in Trieste, Italy, in preparation for its debut for the new Crystal under the ownership of A&K Travel Group. 

When the 740-passenger Serenity sets sail from Marseilles on July 31, the ship will have larger, updated suites with artisanal finishes, a revamped spa and a prominent onboard wellness program. Guests also will discover a new look for specialty dining restaurants Umi Uma and Osteria d’Ovidio along with a new pickleball court and refreshed entertainment.
