Abercrombie & Kent and Crystal Cruises Unveil Unprecedented Luxe Journey
Abercrombie & Kent (A&K), renowned as a global leader in luxury travel, has announced an unparalleled offer that seamlessly blends two extraordinary journeys into one remarkable experience. Bookers of A&K’s Ancient Kingdoms & Dynasties: A Journey by Private Jet will receive a complimentary 9-night Crystal cruise. This exclusive pairing merges the thrill of private jet adventures with the refined elegance of Crystal’s ocean voyages.
Luxury by Sea and Sky
Ann Epting, Senior Vice President of Private Jet & Special Interest Travel at A&K Travel Group (AKTG), highlights the significance of this collaboration. “This unprecedented collaboration between A&K and Crystal offers travelers a unique opportunity to experience the pinnacle of both air and sea adventures in one extraordinary experience.”
The adventure kicks off in Barcelona, where guests will embark on a 9-night Crystal cruise aboard Crystal Symphony from September 25 to October 4, 2025. The cruise explores Spain and its islands, Morocco, and Portugal from the comfort of a Sapphire Veranda Suite.
A Global Expedition
Upon arrival in Lisbon, no more than 48 guests will board the A&K Private Jet for an extensive 25-day global expedition across nine countries in three continents. The journey delves into ancient monuments and civilizations, taking travelers from Tanzania’s Stone Town, the Sultan Qaboos Grand Mosque in Oman, to India’s spectacular temples and the Angkor complex in Cambodia. The adventure culminates in Malta with a traditional musical parade in honor of A&K’s Private Jet guests.
Special Guests Illuminate the Experience
A&K has added two exceptional guest speakers to enhance the journey. Fernando Barroso de Oliveira, A&K’s Brand Ambassador, will welcome guests to Portugal and share his life experiences with a zest for travel. Born and raised in Portugal, he has extensive experience in hosting land journeys, polar expeditions, and Crystal cruises.
Martin Regg Cohn, a renowned foreign correspondent and editor, will conduct lectures and share his insights. With more than 40 countries under his belt and interviews with influential figures such as the Dalai Lama and Benjamin Netanyahu, Regg Cohn’s experience in Asia and the Middle East makes him the ideal companion for the Ancient Kingdoms & Dynasties journey. “I’m intrigued by the core themes that focus on ancient kingdoms. It reminds me of what I found so appealing as a foreign correspondent – travelling to get a closer look at our cultural roots, while also seeing the historical roots of today’s conflicts,” explains Regg Cohn.
Experience Luxury in the Skies
A&K’s chartered Boeing 757 offers the pinnacle of comfort with 48 first-class, fully lie-flat seats. Enjoy high-end amenities such as iPads, noise-cancelling headphones, and an espresso machine. A dedicated cabin crew, including an executive chef, provides unparalleled personalized service, remembering each guest’s preferences and ensuring comfort.
The exclusive itinerary ensures visitors access to exotic destinations not easily reached by major airline carriers. The journey’s reliability adheres to A&K’s schedule, not airline-convenience. Guests can expect an all-inclusive experience with meals, beer, wine, full bar service, laundry services, internet access (where available), and all gratuities. A&K’s White Glove passport and visa handling service streamlines travel preparations.
