The cruise ship MS Amera has officially set sail on an ambitious 134 night world cruise, marking one of the longest and most extensive global itineraries currently offered by Phoenix Reisen.
Departing from Bremerhaven, the voyage will take guests on a nearly four-and-a-half-month journey spanning five continents, dozens of countries and some of the world’s most iconic ports.
A Global Itinerary Designed for Long-Haul Cruisers
The world cruise charts a westbound route that includes destinations across South America, the South Pacific, Asia, the Middle East and the Mediterranean before returning to Germany. Highlights include calls in South America, island nations in the Pacific, major Asian ports, and historic cities across Europe.
With extended stays and multiple overnight calls, the itinerary is designed to offer deeper destination immersion rather than rushed port visits, a key draw for long-duration cruise guests.
Amera’s Role in Phoenix Reisen’s World Cruise Program
MS Amera has become a familiar name in Phoenix Reisen’s world cruise portfolio. Originally built in 1988, the ship has undergone extensive refurbishment in recent years, balancing classic cruise ship design with modern upgrades.
The vessel caters primarily to the German-speaking market and is known for longer port stays, traditional onboard service and a relaxed pace that appeals to seasoned cruisers.
Life Onboard During 134 Nights at Sea
Guests sailing the full world cruise can expect a structured onboard program tailored to long voyages. This includes guest speakers, destination-focused lectures, themed events and special celebrations marking milestones during the journey.
Dining, entertainment and enrichment programs are adjusted over the course of the voyage to keep life onboard varied during the extended time at sea.
A Growing Demand for Extended World Cruises
Phoenix Reisen’s latest world cruise reflects a broader industry trend toward ultra-long itineraries aimed at repeat cruisers and retirees seeking slow travel experiences. As more travelers prioritize depth over speed, world cruises like MS Amera’s continue to gain traction despite their premium pricing and long time commitment.
MS Amera’s 134-night journey is scheduled to conclude back in Bremerhaven later in the year, completing a full circumnavigation that blends classic cruising traditions with global exploration.
