SINGAPORE, 5 April 2024: Surrounded by beautiful hillside vineyards in Pinh\u00e3o, Portugal, Avalon Waterways christened its 15th Suite Ship during the Easter week. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The new 262-foot, 102-passenger Avalon Alegria has 14 Deluxe Staterooms and 37 Panorama Suites. It is the first ‘suite ship’ from Avalon Waterways to set sail in Portugal, designed to sail the Douro River. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Avalon Alegria joins a fleet of Suite Ships sailing iconic rivers in Europe and Southeast Asia. Her first guests embarked on a themed cruise titled \u201cVida Portugal Cruise; Vineyards & Villages.\u201d sailing the River Douro earlier this week.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Waterways president Pam Hoffee points to Avalon\u2019s signature features: \u201cits boutique-hotel-inspired Panorama Suites and the industry\u2019s only Open-Air Balconies with the widest-opening windows in cruising.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cA Panorama Suite is the highlight on all of the Suite Ships of Avalon, along with wall-to-wall, floor-to-ceiling windows open 11 feet wide in Europe and 14 feet wide in Southeast Asia \u2026 wider than any other balconies in the industry.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cWe\u2019ve waited a long time for the perfect opportunity to add Portugal to our robust holiday portfolio, and that day has finally arrived,\u201d said Hoffee at the start of the Easter week\u2019s launch cruise.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
