From Rivers to Remote Destinations: Cruising’s Biggest Trends for 2026

As we look toward 2026, the cruise industry is entering one of its strongest and most dynamic periods in years. The latest insights from the ASTA Premium Business Summit reinforce what many travel advisors already see every day: cruise travel demand is holding steady, and interest in premium experiences continues to rise. These emerging 2026 cruise trends are shaping a powerful cruise industry outlook defined by innovation, early booking patterns and traveler enthusiasm across every segment of cruising.

We’re watching a K-shaped travel economy take shape. While some consumers are scaling back discretionary spending, those who continue to travel are investing more in premium and luxury travel. ASTA members report cruise booking patterns stretching well into late 2026, with many clients securing itineraries far in advance. Cruise lines are responding with a record wave of new cruise ships for 2026, expanded cruise itineraries and exclusive private cruise destinations that are generating significant buzz among travelers.

In a guest column published in TravelPulse, ASTA President and CEO Zane Kerby reflects on 2025 and what comes next.

"As 2025 draws to a close, I’m struck by the extraordinary power of travel to unite people, drive economies and expand human understanding. At its core, our purpose remains unchanged: to champion the travel advisor community and empower people to explore the world through connections that enrich lives and strengthen understanding. Yet this past year has been transformative not just in growth but in how travelers think, plan and move through the world. One of ASTA’s greatest strengths is our community, and this year reminded us of how vital that community truly is. When members attend ASTA events, they help build more than professional expertise; they strengthen our collective voice and reinforce ASTA’s ability to confront the challenges facing our profession. Every gathering, large or small, fuels our advocacy, our momentum and our shared sense of purpose."
