In June 2025, Ambassador Cruise Line announced that its new 2027/28 season will be the first where every no-fly sailing will be adult-only.
*All details correct at time of publish (17 October 2025)
With only one multigenerational sailing currently available (sailing in August 2026), the decision to revert to ‘child-free’ cruises ensures that Ambassador can create an adult-focused community at sea across all no-fly sailings, even during school holidays.
Ambassador Cruise Line Chief Executive Officer, Christian Verhounig, explains: “Our signature no-fly sailings showcase what makes Ambassador special; each has been conceived to celebrate our smaller ships and the opportunities they provide to offer the perfect blend of adventure, relaxation, cultural immersion and – of course, our signature ‘warmest welcome at sea’.
“As an operator that prides itself on listening to its customers, we’ve refined our offering following extensive feedback to focus on what our guests value most – a traditional, authentic and adult-oriented cruising experience.
“Ambassador can therefore confirm that the 2027/28 season will be the first where every no-fly itinerary will be child-free.”
Below is a selection of Ambassador’s top adult-only sailings for 2026 and beyond – every one offers guests the opportunity to embark on an unforgettable adventure whilst also enjoying the amazing entertainment, outstanding cuisine and exceptional service available onboard.
