Peter Deilmann Cruises is featuring Wellness Spa programs on three MS Deutschland sailings this fall and winter on sailings that offer free air from New York and 15 other gateways.

The Wellness Spa packages on the five-star ocean liner Deutschland are available on a 14-night sailing on the Atlantic from Hamburg to Lisbon with port calls in Amsterdam, London and Funchal, Sept. 17-Oct. 1; a 13-night sailing from Aqaba, Jordan to Egypt, Yemen, Oman and Dubai, Nov. 21-Dec. 4; and a 15-night sailing from Dubai to India, Sri Lanka and Phuket, Thailand, Dec. 4-19.

The Wellness packages allow passengers to reduce stress with massage treatments, exercise programs and beauty treatments and to use the ship's sauna facilities.

The Western Europe cruise that departs from Hamburg, Sept. 17, begins with a fitness program enroute to Amsterdam and includes an evening canal boat tour and a morning bike tour.

The itinerary takes passengers to London, St. Nazaire and the Breton region of France, Vilagarcia and the Cantabrian coast of Spain and Funchal on the island of Madeira.

Enroute, participants in the Wellness program have a rejuvenating Thalasso therapy treatment, a revitalizing facial with Clarins care line, Ayurveda foot massage and a relaxing back massage with soothing oils, Oriental cleansing Rasul bath and fitness and make-up workshops. The package includes bike and canal tour, hiking excursions and daily fresh fruit basket and wellness water in the cabin.

The 513-passenger Deutschland has 286 cabins, including 17 singles. The five-star ship, built in 1998 in art nouveau and art deco styles to recall the grand days of ocean travel, is refurbished annually while its gleaming wood finishes and etched glass decorations are polished discreetly on every voyage.
