Century Cruises Triumphs Again: Wins Four Magellan Awards

MIAMI - Oct. 15, 2025 - PRLog -- The win also showcases Century Cruises' unmatched expertise in the craftsmanship of luxury, eco-friendly river vessels. For more than three decades, the company has set the benchmark for river cruising on China's iconic Yangtze River. Its next-generation ships seamlessly blend elegant design, advanced environmental technologies, and exceptional hospitality, delivering an unparalleled cruising experience that reflects the brand's enduring commitment to innovation and sustainability.

"Century Cruises has always been guided by a vision of excellence and environmental responsibility," said David Fredericks, Senior Vice President of Sales and Marketing of Century Cruises. "As we expand our footprint beyond Asia, we look forward to sharing our signature blend of Chinese hospitality and world-class luxury with guests exploring the great rivers of the world."

It was only last year that Century Cruises launched the latest addition to its ever-expanding fleet — the Century Voyage. In just 13 months of operation, the vessel has already earned three prestigious Magellan Awards: two Golds in the categories of River Cruise Ship, Overall–Small Cruise Ship as well as a Silver Award for Eco-Friendly "Sustainable" Cruise Ship.

These accolades recognize Century Voyage's exceptional design, world-class service, and commitment to sustainability—further solidifying Century Cruises' position as a global leader in luxury river cruising.

The fourth Magellan Award is a crown to Century Cruises' hard work, vision, and resilience, rooted in the company's beginnings on the banks of the Yangtze River. Today, Century Cruises is recognized as a proud recipient of the Magellan Gold Award. This achievement is a testament to every single employee across the globe, whose tireless dedication continues to make Century Cruises a leader in luxury river cruising.

The recent haul of industry awards also stands as a testament to Century Cruises' extensive expansion, particularly in the United States market. This milestone was quickly followed by the development of strong partnerships with suppliers and travel agents, further strengthening Century Cruises' global network.

Building on this momentum, the company has continued its strategic growth into Europe and Egypt, expanding its fleet and international operations.

Century Cruises is sailing full speed ahead across the globe, propelled by strong support from its headquarters in China. While the company's recent expansion may appear ambitious, it is in fact the result of over three decades of experience and meticulous, patient planning. With a legacy built on excellence, innovation, and sustainability, Century Cruises' international growth is already delivering impressive results—a testament to its vision, strategy, and unwavering commitment to redefining luxury river cruising worldwide.

"This is a great opportunity to thank all our supporters," continued David Fredericks, "We are truly excited about what lies ahead and look forward to sharing more exciting news in the years to come. Watch this space!"
