Ambassador Cruise Line Sets Sail for North America with New U.S. Office and Dedicated Services
Ambassador Cruise Line, originally based in the United Kingdom, is making significant strides into the North American market by establishing a dedicated office in the United States. This expansion is accompanied by the launch of a toll-free service number (1-800-537-1499) designed to cater specifically to North American travelers, enhancing the accessibility and convenience of booking their unique cruising experiences.
Since its inception in April 2022, Ambassador Cruise Line has offered a variety of departures from London and seven regional ports across the U.K., including Edinburgh Leith, Newcastle, Dundee, Liverpool, Belfast, Bristol, and Falmouth. The line operates two ships, the 1,400-guest Ambience and the 1,200-guest Ambition, focusing primarily on travelers over 50 while also providing multi-generational voyages during the summer months.
Christian Verhounig, CEO of Ambassador Cruise Line, expressed enthusiasm about the expansion: “We pride ourselves on offering our guests an authentic sailing experience that goes above and beyond their expectations, and we are absolutely delighted to bring our signature brand of affordable quality cruises to even more guests. Having a dedicated team to support our North American operations underscores our commitment to delivering exceptional service and memorable voyages.”
Ambassador Cruise Line’s entry into the North American market is well-timed, capitalizing on the growing demand for cruise vacations and the company’s high customer satisfaction rates, with 94 percent of passengers recommending the brand to friends and family. This expansion is expected to introduce more North American travelers to what Verhounig calls the “warmest welcome at sea.”
