　For the nine days from May 22 (Monday) to May 30 (Tuesday), 2023 a luxury cruise ship of the French cruise ship operator Ponant will travel around in the style of an expedition to beautiful islands which have protected and passed down their unique culture and on which abundant nature remains, most notably Yakushima Island and Amami Oshima which have been registered as world natural heritage sites.
　ANA X has established this new luxury cruise product in order to meet the diversifying and wide-ranging travel needs of our customers.
　Le Soleal, the cruise ship we will operate for this cruise, is a yacht-type compact cruise ship, so it can travel around to the islands of Kyushu that would be difficult to visit on a standard cruise, and in addition to the food and drink on the ship even the basic tourism at the ports of call is included in the travel cost, so you can enjoy both tourism and the cruise.
　On the ship, you can enjoy a library and theater, a pool deck, cuisine only available on French ships, and food inspired by the charming ports of call, in interiors showcasing French L’Esprit. Furthermore, you can enjoy your time with peace of mind because Japanese support staff or support staff who can speak Japanese will coordinate the travel. Please fully enjoy shipboard life in the French style.
