Robert Doyle READ TIME: 2 MIN.

Princeton, NJ -"Crystal Cruises does not leave much more to be desired with its all-inclusive offerings beginning in 2012," said Ross Spalding, President of Crown Cruise Collection.

This is an enhancement to its already expansive host of luxury services and amenities. Beginning with its Trans-Atlantic crossings, vacations on the award-winning Crystal Symphony and Crystal Serenity will include complimentary fine wines and premium spirits throughout the ship, open bar service in all lounges, and pre-paid gratuities for housekeeping, bar and dining staff. The complimentary gratuity amenity also includes Penthouse butler service as well as service in all of Crystal's fine specialty restaurants and sushi bar.

By responding to the desires of today's upscale cruise traveler, Crystal is maximizing the guest experience by eliminating additional transactions - further enhancing the ease and luxury of a Crystal cruise.

All cruises include free round-trip air transportation from two dozen North American gateways (or a generous air credit), with airport/ship transfers included.

Crystal Cruises continues to add to its award-winning luxury vacation experience each year with more and more complimentary amenities, services, workshops and dining opportunities. Other noteworthy inclusions are dining in specialty restaurants that feature the cuisine of Nobu Matsuhisa and Piero Selvaggio; golf lessons with PGA pros; Berlitz language classes; paddle tennis; and the Crystal Visions lecture series, featuring distinguished speakers and always 24-hour room service. Penthouse accommodations also include personal butler service, pressing, stocked bar, and other amenities and services.
