Atlas had announced in October that Rodriguez was leaving the luxury expedition cruise line at year's end, but Atlas said on Dec. 12 that he would stay. 

Rodriguez joined Atlas in 2022. Mystic Invest Holding owns the line, which debuted in 2021.

In a statement, Mystic Invest Holding chairman Mario Ferreira said, "The expedition cruise market has experienced explosive growth over the past two years, and Atlas Ocean Voyages is well-positioned for 2025, with 70% of inventory already sold. "James Rodriguez has been instrumental in the success of Atlas Ocean Voyages and is the proven leader to guide its future."
