Silversea is debuting new charter flights to the Galápagos Islands for cruise guests sailing onboard the Silver Origin.
As of July 5, guests will no longer have to stop in Guayaquil as they make their way from Quito to San Cristóbal Island, which should eliminate roughly two hours of travel time.
Instead, they’ll fly directly to the island from Ecuador’s capital city, with amenities like private check-in services, upgraded in-flight meals, blocked middle seats and more space.
Silver Origin offers 50 all-suite accommodations with butler service. The purpose-built ship sails year-round in the Galápagos, offering 7- to 14-night expeditions in the iconic archipelago.
“We always put the guest at the center of everything we do, creating opportunities for deeper connections to the destination and this is one more way we’re leveraging our deep expedition and destination expertise to further elevate the Silversea experience,” says Bert Hernandez, president of Silversea.
