Seabourn has opened for booking nine shorter segments from its 2026 “Ring of Fire: Hidden Gems” world cruise.
Guests who sign on for the entire world cruise will spend 129 days aboard Seabourn Sojourn, visiting 63 destinations in 14 countries along the way. The cruise starts in Los Angeles on January 6 and ends in Vancouver on May 15.

“Our 2026 world cruise aboard Seabourn Sojourn will be a remarkable voyage visiting destinations throughout an impressive portion of the Pacific,” says Natalya Leahy, president of Seabourn. “This region will feature extraordinary cultural and culinary experiences as well as scenic natural wonders for guests to create memorable Seabourn Moments."
