Port Everglades Welcomes Azamara to Its Fleet
Wednesday, January 10, 2024
FORT LAUDERDALE, FL Port Everglades officially welcomed Azamara Cruises for the first time and Azamara Onward to its new South Florida winter homeport during a traditional dockside plaque-and-key ceremony on December 12th, 2023. As a portal to the world, the greater Fort Lauderdale seaport is an ideal fit for the luxury small-ship cruise line that offers sailings to destinations around the globe.
“We are honored to extend our highly personalized services to Azamara Cruises and their guests,” said Port Everglades CEO and Port Director Jonathan Daniels. “As a welcoming and convenient port of choice, we’re confident that their cruise guests will find themselves pleasantly immersed in all that the port and Greater Fort Lauderdale have to offer.”
Azamara Onward’s three sailings from the port this cruise season include a 12-night and 14-night journey to the Eastern Caribbean, and a 13-night Central America Tapestry Voyage, which kicks off the 155-night Around the World Voyage that departs on January 5, 2024. The newest ship in Azamara Cruises’ collection is built like its other three ships to accommodate up to 700 guests as it crosses oceans, cruises waterways and docks at intimate locations.
“We want to thank CEO and Port Director Jonathan Daniels and his team at Port Everglades for warmly welcoming our latest ship, Azamara Onward, as she makes her maiden call here in Fort Lauderdale,” says Michael Pawlus, Head of Itinerary Planning at Azamara. “With our headquarters in South Florida, it’s always exciting to have one of our ships dock close to home. In just a few weeks, Azamara Onward will set sail from here on her first ever World Cruise from Port Everglades, taking our guests from Fort Lauderdale to more than 40 countries across the globe.”
In addition to ease of sailing, Azamara cruise guests will find Port Everglades is a shell’s throw away from golden beaches, restaurants, hotels and attractions for nearly every interest and budget.
