If you haven’t been on a cruise yourself, chances are you know someone who has. Dozens of cruise lines operate hundreds of ships to offer guests a variety of cruise experiences. The ships themselves range from ocean liners to riverboats, expedition vessels to yachts. They cater to various travel niches: family travel, cultural immersion, wildlife discovery and consummate luxury to name just a few. Since cruises appeal to such a variety of interests, did you ever wonder who your fellow cruisers would be and what you may have in common? Let me introduce you to a typical Regent Seven Seas guest.
Often cruise guests have some common bonds that draw them to a particular cruise experience. Regent Seven Seas specializes in providing six-star luxury on small ships that cater to a maximum of 700 passengers on two of their ships and only 450 on the third. From sublime service to serene comfort, Regent creates an atmosphere of pleasure and privilege. An appreciation for the casually elegant ambiance and the high value of all-inclusive cruising is a connection between the guests. So who will you meet onboard?
The Regent Seven Seas Guest
Luxury cruisers are far from cookie-cutter – indeed they have a wide range of interests. For the Regent Seven Seas guest, the strongest music preference is classical, with jazz and big band not far behind. Those are followed by soft rock, country, R&B and alternative. Hobbies run the gamut, with significant interests in cultural arts, antique collecting, needlework, gardening and wine appreciation. For health and fitness, the Regent Seven Seas guest enjoys tennis and golf, followed by snow skiing, walking and bicycling.
Guests that choose a Regent Seven Seas cruise are frequently mature and educated travelers. Their average age is 58 and they tend to work in professional careers. Your fellow cruisers will often be doctors and business executives, but you might also meet a 40 year old elementary teacher or a 75 year old artist. The Regent cruiser is likely to be an affluent empty-nester, but only 35% are retired. They donate to charity, most notably arts and culture, but also to political campaigns, humanitarian efforts and environmental concerns.
Many people who cruise with Regent are quite well-traveled. You’ll enjoy conversations with new acquaintances about some of the most fascinating places in the world – comparing impressions of an exotic destination or possibly getting ideas for your next trip. A full 57% are repeat Regent cruisers, which says alot about how guests perceive the value of a Regent cruise. While Regent has hosted past guests from 134 different countries, 92% of them have been from the U.S. and Canada, so it’s unlikely that there will be a language barrier between you and your fellow cruisers.
The Regent Seven Seas guest likes to dine and dine well, although they may not consider themselves “foodies.” Regent’s celebrated chefs create gourmet cuisine with fresh local produce and the finest international ingredients. Meals are accompanied by exceptional wines and impeccable service, which are all included. Regent’s all-inclusive dining is a value that luxury travelers appreciate. Best of all, on Regent you can dine when and with whom you like in the open seating restaurants. The Maitre D’ will seat you at a romantic table for two or a larger table of like-minded cruisers as you wish.
The best cruise experiences happen when the ship’s amenities and style jibe with the traveler’s expectations. Regent Seven Seas offers incomparable service in a setting of casual luxury.

What is the average age of travelers aboard Regent cruises?
Travel Maestro says
Hi Danielle, the average age of Regent guests is 58, although I’d say the range is about 45 to 75. You’ll find few children aboard and no standard kids programming. Guests tend to be in professional careers or retired, interested in foreign cultures, and well traveled. If this sounds like people you’d like to travel with, contact Covington to give Regent a try! – Beverly/Travel Maestro
