After 12 other cruises on 9 other lines, this was our first time on Seabourn. We completed 2 segments on the 2014 World Cruise, from Los Angeles to Hong Kong. Some things on the Sojourn were wonderful; some not so much...
The Ship: Beautiful and well-maintained. The design is sleek, modern with a flavor of mid-century. One of the things you pay for in the luxury pricing is the space. Imagine an Azamara ship with 150 fewer passengers. As a result you get more public spaces and larger verandah suites. The biggest success is Seabourn Square where one can find coffee, excursion info, newspapers, computers, assistance from phenomenal staff and a community of passengers lounging on comfy chairs. The one public area we didn't like was the Restaurant (main dining room) due to the harsh lighting and faux-luxury furniture; it was not inviting.
Fellow Passengers: Almost no one under the age of 60. Retired and accomplished. Mostly from North America, UK, and Australia, with a small number from other EU countries, etc. I can remember only 2 passengers from Asia. No children.
