Windstar Cruises is unveiling more itineraries for its new ship, Star Seeker.

The vessel will be heading to Southeast Asia in 2026 and 2027, with cruises in Singapore, Thailand, Malaysia, Vietnam and Cambodia.

Windstar Cruises is opening bookings for the new itineraries for its Yacht Club members first, followed by members of the general public.

“If you’ve ever been curious about this corner of the world, we invite you on board,” the company wrote in an email to past guests. “You’ll have the chance to see the domed peaks of Angkor Wat and call at unique ports large and small—some, like the island of Ko Yao Noi, so beautiful that you'll wonder how yours could be the only yacht in sight (and you'll feel so glad it is).”

The 112-suite new ship is scheduled to debut in late December, sailing from Málaga, Spain, across the Atlantic. The ship will spend its inaugural season sailing around the Caribbean, Alaska and Japan. Then, it will head to Southeast Asia in 2026 and 2027. 

Star Seeker is one of two new ships in the works for Windstar, along with Star Explorer, which is slated to launch in December 2026.

Guests who book one of the new 2026 or 2027 Southeast Asia voyages by May 31 can enjoy a free all-inclusive experience, including Wi-Fi, unlimited select wine, beer and cocktails, and gratuities, as well as up to $200 in onboard credits per stateroom.
