Crystal Cruises is to offer three different shore excursions to enable guests to experience the Formula 1 Grand Prix at the Yas Marina Circuit in Abu Dhabi, United Arab Emirates on 25 November 2017.
Guests choosing the top package will travel from Crystal Symphony to the race circuit on Yas Island, where they will be able to access the Formula Team One Paddock Club with either Team Red Bull or Team Ferrari. Participants will walk the pit lane and sit in premier seating in the air-conditioned upper floors of the pit building. They will also benefit from a food and beverage service throughout the day, as well as an open bar and access to the roof terrace.
The second package offers premium hospitality seating in the shaded top level in the grand stand. Guests will also have access to an air-conditioned lounge where food and non-alcoholic beverages will be served throughout the race.
A third option offers guests race tickets with premium grand stand seating.
“Regardless of one’s chosen level of exclusive access, attendance of this remarkable international event is an unforgettable opportunity for any traveller,” said Edie Rodriguez, Crystal Cruises’ CEO and president.
Crystal Symphony’s 17-day ‘Indian Ocean Discovery’ voyage starts with an overnight in Dubai on 22 November and makes a maiden call in Doha, Qatar, before spending a day/night in Abu Dhabi on 25 November. The ship will then travel on to Mahé/Victoria in the Seychelles, Nosy Bé and Maroantsetra (maiden call) in Madagascar, before finishing the voyage with an overnight in Mauritius.
