The Ship
The Azamara Journey
- Intimate Size & Passenger Capacity: She's one of Azamara's smaller, R-Class sister ships, carrying approximately 698 guests (double occupancy), allowing for a high staff-to-guest ratio and personalized service

- Recent Refurbishment: The ship underwent an extensive, multi-million-dollar renovation before entering Azamara's service in 2018 and received further soft-goods updates and technical maintenance during a scheduled drydock in 2024.
