Travellers wishing to cruise outside of Europe will also receive the free all-inclusive package on a wide range of itineraries departing through 30th June 2027.
Augustus Lonsdale, Head of Sales for Windstar Cruises, comments: “After our most successful Wave season from the UK ever, with over triple the amount of guests booking their next Windstar cruise and hugely increased demand for sailings in the same year, we’re excited to extend this valuable offer to meet the needs of our trade partners.
“I’m confident this combination of incredible value for money, alongside competitive pricing, will be a hit with our partners and help us go from strength to strength across the next part of the year.”
The two accompanying agent incentives are:
- Sell 2, Get O2 Tickets – agents booking two qualifying summer 2026 European voyages before 30th June 2026 will receive two tickets for a show of their choice at the O2 Arena, featuring premium seating in The NinetyThird Lounge by Qatar Airways as well as priority entry.
- Sell 5 & Sail Free – agents selling five qualifying summer 2026 European voyages before 30th June 2026 will receive a free 2026 Europe cruise for two people of up to eight days in length (subject to availability and limited to one cruise per travel agent).
The two incentives are combinable, so agents can sell a further three voyages after earning the O2 tickets to get the free cruise.
What sailings are included?
As part of the extended Cruise Beyond promotion, guests can sail on a number of 2026 summer European cruises.
What makes Windstar Different?
At its core, the complimentary All-Inclusive offer reflects the way Windstar approaches travel. With yachts carrying just 148 to 342 guests, the experience feels closer to a private yacht than a traditional cruise, with access to smaller ports, city centres and hidden harbours that larger ships cannot reach.
That access translates into more time in port, more flexibility and a more personalised connection to each destination. Guests might find themselves paddleboarding straight from the yacht’s marina, joining a market visit with a local chef or staying late in port with an evening ashore.
As the Official Cruise Line of the James Beard Foundation, Windstar also brings food and wine experiences on board that reflect the destinations guests are exploring. It is a style of travel built around going beyond the crowds, beyond the guidebook and beyond the expected.
