GUILFORD, CT—August 6, 2019— American Cruise Lines announces its full line-up of Holiday themed cruises for the upcoming 2019 season. Whether you are celebrating Thanksgiving, Christmas, the New Year or just the spirit of the season, gather your loved ones and create lifelong memories together, on a joy-filled holiday cruise. American Cruise Lines will handle every detail while you relax and enjoy an unforgettable stress-free vacation to the most beautiful destinations in the U.S.A. American’s 2019 Holiday themed cruises create a perfect seasonal setting for couples, solo travelers, and family groups.
Beginning in late November 2019, with Thanksgiving cruises, American offers Holiday themed cruises to many of the most popular river and coastal cruising destinations in the U.S.  Thanksgiving, Sprit of the Season, Christmas, and New Year’s themed cruises are available along the lower Mississippi River and the Southeast Coast between Charleston, SC and Florida.

This cruise is ideal for history buffs and includes a rare stop inside Washington, D.C. on the Capital’s Southwest waterfront.
Throughout the holiday season, American’s ships are adorned in holiday décor and offer special holiday meals, cocktail parties, and seasonally inspired events both on board and on shore.  In addition to all the onboard merriment, American’s guests will experience guided shore excursions, award-winning enrichment, and the largest most comfortable accommodations in the industry.
