Officially opened for entries and eagerly anticipated by the world of cruising are the 2025 Travvy Awards. Worldwide travel advisers vote on these highly regarded awards, which look to honor the best of the cruise world, including top-of-the-line cruise lines, ships, destinations, and much more. As Travvy Awards become the eleventh of their annual events to be staged, excitement grows for the year’s competition’s exceptional nominations. From luxury to family to expedition and river cruising categories, Travvy Awards are an excellent roadmap for travellers to choose the ultimate cruising holidays.

The black-tie gala event will be held on November 6, 2025, at the Broward County Convention Center in Greater Fort Lauderdale. As travel professionals cast their ballots, we know this much: 2025 is proving to be a year of great choices and great voyages for cruisers. Among the nominees for this year are some of the most well-known ships and lines to ever sail, each of them having unique itineraries and first-class accommodations.

Travvy Awards rank cruise lines by regions, and nominees for this year’s awards were a combination of options for travelers heading to different parts of the world.

For travelers looking to explore Alaska’s rugged beauty, nominees for cruise lines are Celebrity Cruises, Holland America Line, Norwegian Cruise Line, Princess Cruises, Royal Caribbean International, and UnCruise Adventures. Each offers unique ways of enjoying Alaska’s spectacular views, such as glacier-filled fjords and wildlife encounters.

In Asia, some of the world’s leading lines, including MSC Cruises, Oceania Cruises, and Princess Cruises, are competing to be top of the region’s list. Offering so many choices of exotic locations such as Japan and China, and South East Asia, these cruise lines guarantee unforgettable memories.

The Caribbean continues to be one of the world’s premier cruise destinations. Nominated cruise lines include the Carnival Cruise Line, Celebrity Cruises, Disney Cruise Line, and Royal Caribbean International, with an abundance of itineraries to discover this tropical paradise.

Travvy Awards also list the best ships for cruising, and they are further segregated by ship size, luxury status, and onboard benefits. From ships of 1,000-plus cabins to ships of smaller cabin sizes and cozier atmospheres, these ships are scheduled to suit all types of travelers.

There are nominees like Carnival Cruise Line’s Jubilee, Royal Caribbean’s Icon of the Seas, and MSC Cruises’ World America in this category. All these mega ships are equipped with a number of luxuries like fine restaurants, entertainment, and adventure activities to ensure that no time spent on the sea is uninteresting.

If you’re after something smaller and intimate for your voyage, luxury ships such as Le Commandant Charcot by PONANT and Paul Gauguin by Paul Gauguin Cruises are vying for top spot. Smaller ships of this nature are capable of delivering personal service and unique itineraries impossible on larger ships.

Cruise entertainment is the pinnacle of many vacations and is embodied by nominees such as Carnival Cruise Line, Disney Cruise Line, Royal Caribbean International, and Virgin Voyages. Ranging from Broadway-caliber productions to ice shows to live music performances, these lines are for all types of travelers.

For travelers preferring a smaller, scenic cruising experience, river cruising is gaining increased popularity. Travvy Awards feature leading river cruise lines and vessels, and some of them feature unique ways of exploring Europe, Africa, and other places.

Europe remains a top river cruise destination, and nominees are AmaWaterways, Avalon Waterways, Uniworld Boutique River Cruises, and Scenic Luxury Cruises. Their lines encompass itineraries on well-known rivers like the Danube, Rhine, and Seine and are dedicated to culturally immersive itineraries with luxury and tradition.
