In another setback for Seattle’s pandemic-scuttled cruise business, Windstar Cruises is moving its headquarters from Seattle to Miami.

The company, known for a small fleet of mid-size luxury vessels that operate worldwide, said Friday that it would relocate its downtown headquarters to Miami in June 2022.

Christopher Prelog, Windstar Cruises’ president, said the move was driven by several factors, among them the company’s Seattle office lease, which ends next year, and by Miami’s proximity to Windstar’s Caribbean and European markets.

“We will be in closer contact to ships and crew when they pass through Florida, and we also gain the benefit of being in the center of the cruise industry,” Prelog said in a statement.
