As I have said many times, the Chris Botti at Sea program is a very important part of my life and my career. I have put my heart and soul into the planning of the first two sailings and our music community has responded with its total support. I am both humbled and grateful.
Our first sailing was fully reserved, and we enjoyed a magical week together. The second sailing is also fully reserved and the programming for that cruise is even more exciting. I cannot wait to see our guests on the sailing.
Improvisation is the hallmark of jazz and being innovative has defined my music world for years. So, when the opportunity came to present Chris Botti at Sea Ill on the West Coast, sailing from Los Angeles to Vancouver, with calls in San Francisco and Victoria, I grabbed it.
Having grown up in the Great Northwest, I know how amazing Fall can be in that area and the thought of an overnight in San Francisco which will allow us to visit Napa, Sonoma, and enjoy the city with its world class food and music venues is very exciting.
To make this once in a lifetime trip possible, we do need to wait a little longer between cruises than our usual timeframe. Chris Botti at Sea II (’25) sails from 2.4.25 – 2.11.25, so Chris Botti at Sea III (’26) will be 18 months later. The good news is that we have that extra time to assemble another star-studded lineup, and our guests have extra time to plan and prepare for the cruise.
I have instructed my friends at Jazz Cruises to continue our policy of providing current guests (’25 sailing) with the exclusive right to rebook their staterooms for the next cruise and inviting those not on the ’25 sailing to queue up for a stateroom through our Pre-Sail Reservation program. That information is included below.
Putting these cruises together and being able to spend a full week with our dearest fans has been a joy and an honor for me and my team. As always, I promise you that we will make sure that you have the time of your life.
