The company also will market its “three most popular Crown series vessels” to Western travelers -- Century Sky, Century Sun and Century Diamond.

The Century Paragon and Century Legend were both launched in 2013. Their itineraries will remain the same as this year, offering three-night downstream and four-night upstream cruises between Chongqing and Yichang from March 11 through the end of November. Century Paragon sails upstream on Fridays and downstream on Tuesdays. Century Legend sails upstream on Wednesdays and downstream on Sundays.

The Century Sky and Century Sun both will sail three-night downstream and four-night upstream cruises between Chongqing and Yichang.
