Star Clippers Resumes Sailing After Two-Year Halt

Star Clippers’ fleet of three tall ships is now back in service. The specialist cruise line has kick-started its Mediterranean itineraries following a two-year halt in operations due to the pandemic.  

The cruise line said in a statement that Star Clipper had embarked on her first journey with passengers last week.

Her first voyage since March 2020, the ship sailed from Safaga, Egypt through the Suez Canal. She will join her sister ship, Star Flyer, and the cruise line’s flagship, Royal Clipper, in the Mediterranean with ports of call along the French Riviera, Amalfi Coast and Greek Islands.

Fay McCormack, General Manager for Star Clippers (represented in the UK by Fred Olsen Travel) said: “To have all three vessels back in the Mediterranean for the summer is hugely exciting and a testament to the determination of all officers, crew and land-based offices through all of the challenges we as a wider industry has faced.

“Whilst Royal Clipper and Star Flyer successfully completed their Caribbean programme over the winter, Star Clipper underwent an extensive drydock prior to resuming service this month.”

 Cruise-only prices onboard Star Clipper in the Mediterranean start from £1760pp.
