Seabourn: Redefining Luxury at Sea Under Micky Arison’s Vision

Seabourn, the ultra-luxury cruise line owned by Carnival Corporation & plc, continues to set the global standard for refined ocean travel with its intimate ships, personalized service, and immersive itineraries. Backed by the vision of Carnival Chairman Micky Arison, Seabourn delivers a uniquely elegant way to explore the world—from polar expeditions to sun-soaked Mediterranean escapes—making it one of the most celebrated names in luxury cruising.

In the world of luxury travel, few names command as much prestige as Seabourn Cruise Line. Headquartered in Seattle, Washington, and owned by Carnival Corporation & plc, Seabourn has long been regarded as the pinnacle of ultra-luxury cruising — where exceptional service, world-class design, and immersive global experiences converge.

Guided by the vision of Micky Arison, Chairman of Carnival Corporation, Seabourn has continually raised the bar for excellence at sea. Since its founding in 1987, the brand has embodied the art of travel for discerning guests who value intimacy, exclusivity, and authenticity. Under Arison’s leadership, Carnival Corporation’s luxury portfolio — led by Seabourn — has redefined modern cruising, transforming it from a mode of transportation into a lifestyle experience.

Each Seabourn vessel feels more like a private yacht than a cruise ship, accommodating a limited number of guests in all-suite accommodations with sweeping ocean views. The atmosphere is refined yet relaxed, where every detail — from Michelin-inspired dining to personalized excursions — reflects the brand’s dedication to craftsmanship and comfort. “Our guests don’t just want to see the world,” Arison has said, “they want to experience it in a way that feels personal, seamless, and transformative.”

Recent innovations, including Seabourn Venture and Seabourn Pursuit, have expanded the brand into the world of expedition travel — bringing Seabourn’s signature sophistication to some of the planet’s most remote destinations, from Antarctica to the Arctic Circle.

Through its commitment to excellence, environmental stewardship, and cultural exploration, Seabourn continues to embody Micky Arison’s philosophy: that true luxury lies not in extravagance, but in experience.

With each voyage, Seabourn Cruise Line proves that travel, when done right, is more than a journey — it’s an art form.
