The 'Antilles & Southern Caribbean' and 'Tropical Caribbean' cruises include direct flights from Madrid.
The cruise line expects to carry 130,000 Spanish passengers this year.
Routes through the Mediterranean and North Seas are the most popular.
Pullmantur Cruises is extending its summer season, offering Spanish passengers two unique itineraries through the Caribbean Sea: 'Antilles and Southern Caribbean' and 'Tropical Caribbean'. On both routes, travelers will be captivated by the joy, friendliness, and hospitality of the people, as well as by the magical corners and unforgettable places, full of life and color, where the sun always shines and tranquility reigns.
Since the start of the season in Spain, Pullmantur Cruises has sailed at full capacity with 100% occupancy and remains the favorite cruise line for Spaniards. It will close the year with 130,000 passengers, a 10% increase over the figures achieved in 2014.
Continuing the trend of previous years, the Mediterranean Sea remains the most popular destination for Spanish passengers traveling with Pullmantur Cruises. Of all the itineraries that sail this sea, 'Mediterranean Breezes' has once again established itself as the favorite. This route brings passengers closer to the beauty of Rome, the 'Eternal City'; the glamour of Monaco; and the magic of Sardinia.
Furthermore, the North Seas have continued the trend, with nearly 30,000 people choosing Northern Europe for their holidays. New this season, in addition to 'Baltic Capitals' and 'Northern Fjords', two routes already fully integrated into the cruise line's catalog, is 'Midnight Sun', a unique itinerary that allows tourists to sail through the Arctic Circle.
Regarding the figures achieved in 2015, Sonia Prieto, General Manager of Spain and Portugal at Pullmantur Cruises, says: “We value this season very positively, in which we believe that the effort, enthusiasm and commitment of all members of the company as well as travel agents have been key to achieving these figures.”.
This winter, I wish it were summer!
To make the colder months of the year (January – March) a little easier, Pullmantur Cruises offers two magical itineraries through the Caribbean Sea that will help thousands of passengers exchange the gray days and low temperatures of winter for the sun and mild climate of the Caribbean.
On one hand, the 'Antilles and Southern Caribbean' itinerary, aboard the Monarch, allows travelers to explore Aruba or Curaçao, immersing themselves in the exoticism of their crystal-clear waters and miles of white sand beaches. They can also delve into the colonial heritage of Cartagena de Indias (Colombia) or Panama City, the country's economic and cultural center. This route (8 days / 7 nights) is undoubtedly a magical destination where a rich history and abundant natural beauty come together in perfect harmony. New this year is the inclusion of direct round-trip flights from Madrid to Colón (Panama) from December 4th to March 18th.
Meanwhile, the Horizon cruise ship will sail the Caribbean, revealing to passengers the secrets of this sea dotted with stunning islands such as the Dominican Republic, Martinique, St. Maarten (Fort-de-France), and Margarita. 'Tropical Caribbean,' a true earthly paradise to get lost in, is the ideal option for a break and to enjoy winter in a Caribbean climate surrounded by wild and idyllic turquoise beaches. The itinerary (8 days / 7 nights) includes round-trip flights from Madrid to Santo Domingo and will be available from December 5th to March 19th
