Hotel Bel-Air and Crystal Cruises announce a new partnership, allowing guests to enjoy a seamless transition from one luxury experience to another.

The Bel-Air invites travelers who are embarking or disembarking a Crystal cruise in Los Angeles to begin or conclude their vacation with a two- or three-night package in a Garden Suite. Additionally, frequent hotel guests will receive special offers for Crystal Cruises through Leading Hotels of the World's loyalty program, while Crystal Cruises' repeat guests (Crystal Society members) will receive special rates at the Hotel Bel-Air even when they are not cruising.

"We are honored to enter into this exclusive partnership with Crystal Cruises," says Carlos Lopes, Hotel Bel-Air Managing Director. "The alignment of these two luxury brands is another example of how we continually seek new ways to go above and beyond when it comes to the guest's stay."

"We continually strive to partner with award-winning brands, like Hotel Bel-Air, that can extend to our guests a luxury service experience -- whether they are shipboard or shoreside," adds Nitsa Lewis, vice president, marketing for Crystal Cruises.

The Crystal Cruises/Hotel Bel-Air package, available with its December 21 Christmas/New Year cruise and all of its 2008 cruises to and from Los Angeles, includes:

-- Two or three nights in a Garden Suite

-- Welcome bottle of champagne and strawberries

-- Full American breakfast for two, daily

-- Private car transfer to and from the hotel, airport and the ship

The 2007 package is available at $1,815 or $2,430 per person, double occupancy for two- or three-night programs, respectively.

Crystal Society guests can also enjoy up to 23% off future deluxe guestroom and garden suite accommodations at the hotel, based on space availability. Hotel Bel-Air guests are eligible for a $100 per person shipboard credit on any future Crystal cruise.
