The ship carries crew and passengers who are fully vaccinated against COVID-19.

Half of Windstar’s six-yacht fleet is now back in action.

A flight and hotel package from Los Angeles International Airport includes round-trip flights with Air Tahiti Nui, pre-cruise and post-cruise accommodations, Tahiti ground transfers, and a seven, ten, or eleven night cruise.

Drinks on Windstar

For flight and hotel packages booked during a promotional period up to July 30th, passengers will now also receive a free drinks package (unlimited selection of spirits, wine, beer, cocktails and minibar items). When travelers aren’t drinking, they can choose onboard credit instead to take advantage of experiences like a spa treatment or shore excursions like diving, reef snorkeling or collecting Tahitian black pearls.

Star Breeze limited engagement

Windstar normally sails from Tahiti all year round with the motorized sailing yacht Wind Spirit. However, the line has recently been expanded and updated Star wind, with a capacity for 312 passengers, will operate there on a limited basis from September 19 to March.

Windstar includes a private event on Tahitian cruises: a beach party and local celebratory dinner at one of Bora Bora’s tiny motus, followed by a kinetic fire dance performance. This is available on all sails / both yachts.

Popular travel destination

“Because French Polynesia is such a popular romantic destination, most guests book these itineraries fairly well in advance, which after a year of canceled honeymoons and anniversary voyages has left a lot of ground for a small yacht with limited space,” said Windstar President said Chris Prelog. ‘These intimate cruises fill up quickly.’

Windstar is gradually returning to operations, with its six ships debuting on various dates through November, while passengers must be fully vaccinated under a variety of health and safety precautions including testing, social distancing, masks, and high-tech air filtration.

On June 19, Wind Star resumed sales operations in Greece, and on July 10th, Star Breeze began sailing the Caribbean. Wind Surf is scheduled to sail in the Mediterranean from August 8th, Star Legend in Northern Europe on September 4th and Star Pride in the Caribbean on November 3rd.
