Explora Journeys is celebrating the first anniversary of its loyalty program with exclusive privileges throughout July 2026.  

Over the past year, the cruise line says the community has grown steadily as more guests have embraced the brand’s vision for elegant ocean travel. 

Designed to honour the community of like-minded guests at the heart of Explora Club, this celebration offers exceptional limited-time benefits to Members while introducing new status match and referral paths to welcome like-minded travellers.

“Explora Club has become far more than a loyalty program – it is a community of guests who share our vision for a different kind of luxury ocean travel,” said Explora Journeys president Anna Nash. 

L-R): Captain Serena Melani, Executive Chairman of the Cruise Division of MSC Group, Pierfrancesco Vago and Explora Journeys President Anna Nash.

“True hospitality is built on lasting relationships and meaningful recognition. As we celebrate this milestone, these anniversary privileges are our way of thanking those who have believed in us from the beginning, while welcoming many more guests to discover our Ocean State of Mind.”

Here are some key details:

  • From July 1 to 31 July 2026, Explora Club Members can access 5% savings on a selection of future Journeys, and for Explora Club Silver Members and above, this is combined with the existing Explora Club Member Benefit, offering additional 5% savings. 
  • This limited time offer also features an accelerated referral reward; any Member introducing a guest new to the brand during July unlocks 200 Future Journey Credits and double Explora Club points (1,000) for both parties upon travel completion.  
  • As part of the brand’s commitment to welcoming like-minded luxury travellers, it is also expanding its Status Match program by introducing eligibility for guests of Celebrity Cruises and Princess Cruises, bringing the total number of participating brands to 13 and extending corresponding Explora Club recognition to even more discerning guests.
  • The celebration continues on board throughout July with exclusive Explora Club cocktail parties for Members sailing during the month. Hosted by the ship’s leadership team and dedicated hosts, the events will feature chilled champagne, canapés and a signature anniversary cocktail, alongside musical performances and a celebratory toast.
