SS United States Legacy Cruise to Bermuda, May 2018
The SS United States Conservancy is pleased to announce an wonderful cruising opportunity and a chance to support the preservation of the SS United States and support the SS United States Conservancy's growing curatorial collections.While we wish we could fire up the engines, pull up the gangways and set sail together aboard America's Flagship, the Pollin Group and the Conservancy have partnered to offer the next best thing: a 7-night cruise sailing in May, 2018 to Bermuda aboard the Celebrity Summit. The cruise will depart from Cape Liberty (Bayonne, New Jersey) on Sunday, May 6 and will make port at King's Wharf, Bermuda on May 9 for a three-night stay. The ship will return to New Jersey on Sunday, May 13.
