LOS ANGELES, CA - December 22, 2008 - Through a charitable donation program extending from its shore-side headquarters to its worldwide ships, Crystal Cruises is inviting its employees, guests, travel agents and the general public to help save the lives of children under five around the world.
Nearly 10 million children in impoverished countries die every year of preventable illnesses before they reach the age of five because they lack the simplest of things - clean drinking water, basic medicines, mosquito netting, and nutrition. In September 2008, Crystal Cruises became a founding partner of the Condé Nast Traveler Five & Alive Fund, a program supporting children five and under in more than 30 countries around the world by preventing and treating malaria, water-borne illness, pneumonia and malnutrition.

LOS ANGELES - December 4, 2008 - Following months of negotiation, Crystal Cruises has become the first line to debut an exhilarating three-night Crystal Overland Adventure allowing the most adventurous and fit guests the option to scale Mt. Huashan's South Peak, the highest peak of China's Five Sacred Mountains. Travelers can scale the mountain - known as the "Number One Precipitous Mountain under Heaven" - by grasping iron chain rails bolted into the cliffs' side and maneuvering along a narrow 13' x 1' wood plank that winds its way up the peak. Whether or not guests choose to navigate the cliff-side "path," all participants will be taken by cable car to the top of the peak, a thrilling panoramic ride 7,000 feet off the ground that showcases all five peaks.
