Sarah Little, senior vice president of business development for the American Society of Travel Advisors (ASTA), will be the godmother of AmaWaterways’ new ship AmaSofia.
Little will christen the vessel in March 2026 during the ASTA River Cruise Expo in Amsterdam. The ship will offer 7-night European river cruises on the Danube River, including the line’s popular “Melodies of the Danube” and “Romantic Danube” itineraries.
AmaSofia will be AmaWaterways’ 10th ship on the Danube
“Sarah’s unwavering support of the advisor community and her deep-rooted passion for the industry make her an exceptional choice as Godmother of our beautiful AmaSofia,” says Kristin Karst, co-founder and chief brand ambassador of AmaWaterways. “We are thrilled to honor her with this special recognition. It will be incredibly meaningful to christen AmaSofia in front of more than 1,600 travel advisors during ASTA’s River Cruise Expo—there couldn’t be a more fitting setting or audience for this special celebration.”
