AMERICAN Cruise Line’s American Encore (pictured) has passed her sea trials and has commenced passage toward the Columbia and Snake rivers in the US’ Pacific Northwest, where she will sail her sold-out inaugural season of voyages.
Encore features top-of-the-line amenities, a refined onboard aesthetic, full balcony accommodations, and the spacious Panorama Lounge.
The ship completed her sea trials last week and immediately departed from Chesapeake Shipbuilding in Maryland to begin her month-long passage west.
Encore’s inaugural season begins on 05 May and runs through to mid-Nov.
American has introduced 20 new river ships over the past decade, since launching its first in 2018.
Eight of these ships have been built specifically for the Columbia and Snake rivers, while American also continues to develop docks and waterfront access for communities in the region.
American’s Columbia and Snake itineraries feature an array of experiences showcasing the beauty of the region, with this year’s cruises ranging from nine to 16 days.
Highlights include visits to Yellowstone, Glacier, and Grand Teton national parks. MS
