American Glory is the second Coastal Cat in American Cruise Lines’ new series of 100-passenger ships. It was recently christened in Mallory Square, where the ship docks when visiting Key West during the new Florida Gulf Coast & Keys cruises.
“Docking in Mallory Square is a privilege, and we are honored to be a new small piece of the Key West community. We are grateful to Mayor Johnston and proud to have her as godmother of American Glory. We look forward to continuing to build on our partnership with Key West and other Florida coastal towns,” said Charles B. Robertson, president & CEO, American Cruise Lines.
Dignitaries, community members, cruise guests and port officials joined the event, which also included Mayor the Honorable Teri Johnston, serving as the ship’s godmother. The Victory Belles performed.
American Glory’s christening follows that of American Eagle in August 2023. American Glory now continues to sail the same itinerary through March, returning again in November and December. American Legend will join later this year, and in 2024 and 2025, these sister ships will operate select itineraries exploring the East Coast, from Maine to Florida.
American Glory boasts four decks and a unique catamaran bow, with an elegant interior and private balcony accommodations. For just 100 guests, there are indoor and outdoor lounges, a top deck, a main restaurant, a café and a fitness center.

Dec 18, 2024Stroll the Captivating Barrios of the Chilean Capital
Santiago is divided into comunas (districts) and then into barrios (neighborhoods). Founded in 1541 by Spain, Santiago suffered repeatedly from earthquakes, floods and civil disorder. It is no wonder its barrios are unique and distinct — some with steep terrain crawling up into the foothills of the Andes, some sitting close to the urban center and boasting busy cafés, music clubs, restaurants, food markets, and new residential and commercial high-rises.

Switzerland’s most famous exports — impeccably designed timepieces and luscious chocolate — are available around the world. Its wine, on the other hand, proves as elusive as an easy ascent up the Matterhorn. The Swiss understandably prefer to keep most of it for themselves, to sip après ski alongside bubbling fondue pots of melted Emmental. If you want to taste their homegrown beverage, imbued with crisp mountain air, intense sunlight and sparkling glacial waters, you might have to jump on a plane.
