SEATTLE, May 11, 2023 – Seabourn, the leader in ultra-luxury voyages and expedition travel, kicks off its 2023 Alaska & British Columbia season today with Seabourn Odyssey sailing an eight-day voyage from Vancouver to Juneau.

Seabourn Odyssey will feature 19 sailings in Alaska from May through October 2023, including a total of 14 seven-day itineraries headed northbound or southbound between Vancouver and Juneau, with different sites, scenes, adventures, and ports to experience each way. Guests can also combine two seven-day voyages to create a longer, more immersive 14-day round-trip Vancouver voyages.
