Emerald Cruises adds departures to meet demand

Emerald Cruises has added two extra departures to its 2023 Christmas market programme and two more Douro river sailings in the autumn next year.

The line said the decision to add sailings was made to meet increased demand for those products.

The extra festive sailings are the eight-day Christmas Markets on the Rhine voyage, departing on December 16, and the 11-day Christmas Markets on the Danube with Prague on November 21.
