The new AIDA Selection magazine inspires readers to discover the world and its people on extraordinary journeys
Rostock, 20. September 2016
The new “AIDA Selection” travel magazine will be available from September 30, 2016.
Across 70 pages filled with exciting reports, fascinating photographs, background articles and a plethora of insider tips, our authors introduce the 2017 destinations of AIDAcara, AIDAvita and AIDAaura and their inhabitants. Personal portraits of travelers, locals, and crew members will allow readers to meet the various countries and their people up close.
The first AIDA world tour will set off on October 17, 2017. Over the course of 116 days, AIDAcara will be traveling from Hamburg and back, stopping at 41 ports in 23 countries on five continents until February 10, 2018. The first destination after Hamburg will be South America. Dream destinations such as Rio de Janeiro (Brazil), Buenos Aires (Argentina) and Ushuaia on the Tierra del Fuego peninsula are only a few of the stops on this journey, which will continue from Valparaiso (Chile) to Easter Island. AIDAcara will then head for Tahiti, Mo’orea and Bora Bora in the South Pacific paradise of French-Polynesia. Auckland (New Zealand), Sydney (Australia), the Great Barrier Reef, Bali, Singapore and the Maldives will make any explorer’s heart beat faster.
In February and March 2017, 14-day cruises will sail from Hamburg to the country of the Northern Lights and a unique winter landscape in the Norwegian fjords under the title of “Winter in the High North.”
Three spectacular 21-day cruises to Iceland and Greenland are on the AIDAcara program for the summer of 2017. Hamburg is the departure and arrival port. The ship will stop in Ilulissat and Nuuk on the west coast of Greenland, and in Qaqortoq on the southern coast. Passing through Prince Christian Sound, it will then visit the capital Reykjavik in Iceland, along with Akureyri and Seydisfjördur.
“Unikt” means “unique” in Norwegian, and that is exactly what AIDAvita’s 14-day cruises to Norway will be, heading all the way to the North Cape and Lofoten, or to the Nordic islands and Iceland, in June and July 2017.
Let us introduce another amazing route from the AIDA Selection program: “Mauritius, Seychelles & Madagascar” with AIDAaura. The route also includes a stop on Réunion Island.
The new AIDA Selection magazine will be released on September 30, 2016, with a circulation of 300,000 copies. The impatient among us can browse the publication online at www.aidaselection.de and pre-order their personal copy immediately.
All cruises from the AIDA Selection program can be booked at travel agencies, from the AIDA Customer Center at +49 (0)381/202 707 07, or at www.aida.de.
