Starting next spring, Windstar Cruises is introducing bite-sized European cruise options for time-strapped cruisers. According to Windstar, the three- to five-night itineraries bring together “a mix of iconic cities and tucked-away ports that rarely fit into one itinerary.”
“These new sailings are designed for spontaneity and simplicity,” said Windstar Cruises director of itinerary planning Jess Peterson. “They’re the perfect way to experience the Windstar style of travel – especially if you’re already traveling for work or play in Europe. With overnight flights from the East Coast, you can be sailing beneath the Tower Bridge or sipping wine in Southern France with minimal jet lag and no time wasted.”
Itineraries on offer include:
- Three-night “Taste of Southern France”
- Three-night “La Dolce Vita in Italy & France”
- Three-night “Belgium: A Sweet Getaway” (either London to London or Greenwich to London)
- Four-night “St. Malo Getaway”
Windstar has even more short European getaways planned for 2027, with more information set for release this September.
Cruisers who book by Aug. 31, 2025, will get special pricing, up to $200 in onboard credit per stateroom and a complimentary All-In package.
