Seabourn Encore will debut in Alaska and British Columbia in 2026 with 18 sailings to some of the most remote regions, including Alert Bay and the Inian Islands.
Encore’s maiden season in Alaska will also offer more sailings to Glacier Bay National Park, giving guests the chance to view multiple glaciers in a single journey.
“Alaska continues to be one of the most sought-after destinations of our guests,” said Mark Tamis, President of Seabourn. “From exploring remote waterways to authentic coastal towns rich with culture and history, our 2026 season offers experiences beyond the expected, bringing guests closer to Alaska’s wildlife and communities with the comfort of an ultra-luxury, all-suite ship.”
Encore will offer 17 seven-day itineraries and one eight-day journey during her maiden Alaskan season from May to September 2026.
Seasoned naturalists, scientists, historians and wildlife experts will be onboard Seabourn Encore to lead excursions and take guests closer to Alaska’s wildlife and landscape.
When the ship sails to Glacier Bay National Park, a UNESCO World Heritage site, they will be able to view Alaska’s crown jewels – the dramatic tidewater glaciers, towering mountains and spot humpback whales and sea otters.
There will be three itineraries – an eight-day Alaska Inside Passage Explorer and Glacier Bay from Vancouver to Juneau departing 14 May 2026; a seven-day Alaska fjords, Canadian Inside Passage & Glacier Bay from Juneau to Vancouver departing 22 May 2026 and a seven-day Alaska fjords, Canadian Inside Passage and Glacier Bay from Juneau to Vancouver departing 11 September 2026.
Some of the season’s highlights will be the summer solstice voyage departing Juneau on 19 June 2026, timed to witness the longest day in Alaska and the Perseid Meteor Shower voyage departing Vancouver on 7 August 2026 to coincide with the Perseid meteor shower when shooting stars light up Alaska night skies.
