Luxury Unpacked

In this episode of Karryon Podcast's Luxury Unpacked with Fiona Dalton, we sail into the ultra-luxury world of The Ritz-Carlton Yacht Collection with Seb Seward, Vice President and GM for Asia Pacific.

As the brand brings its legendary hospitality to the seas — and to Australia — we unpack what makes this yachting experience so different from traditional luxury cruising.

From the evolution of Evrima to the debut of Ilma and Luminara, we explore the strategy, the guest experience, and the brand’s vision for this region. This is more than a new way to cruise — it’s yachting redefined for a new generation of luxury travellers.
