Uncommon Voyages Deliver Exceptional Value

NORWALK, Conn., Aug. 2, 2007 - Did you know that like birds, whales and other creatures, most cruise ships migrate when a new season comes rolling in? The most common repositioning cruises sail either north for the summer or south for the winter, with some transatlantic crossings in spring.

Repositioning cruises are experiencing a surge in popularity, due to the value they provide for the length of the voyage. Leisurely days at sea mean that the huge selection of amenities offered onboard today’s ships can be thoroughly enjoyed, and vacations become far less frenetic. Sailings can range from 4 - 18 nights (or more), and for the passionate traveler, there is no better way to see the world. With a variety of staterooms - many with extraordinary ocean views and private balconies - amazing vacation voyages, memories and photographs beckon.

Think you'll get bored on a long cruise that spends several days at sea? Think again: The low price of your voyage includes meals, snacks, basic beverages, and plenty of activities and live entertainment. From 24-hour pizzerias to midnight buffets to gourmet specialty restaurants, an impressive range of American and international cuisine is found on today's superliners. Possibilities for fun include casinos, full-service spas, Broadway-style shows, supervised kids’ clubs, nightclubs, pool solariums, rock-climbing walls, art galleries, ice-skating rinks, teen coffeehouses, fitness centers, shopping promenades, and much more.

Of course, these uncommon voyages make plenty of stops en route, and since the cruise ship is traveling a far distance, they have separate ports for departure and return. This can be ideal for travelers who live near a major port - you can cast off from that nearby port and fly home at the end of your cruise, or fly to the embarkation port and sail home. For example, a family from Ft. Lauderdale could fly to Barcelona, cast off for two weeks on Celebrity Cruise's Millennium, visit the beautiful Canary Islands, tour two more Spanish ports, and relax on the Caribbean island of Labadee before sailing home. Purchasing one-way airfare instead of a round-trip ticket could result in a more savings for shore excursions.

Europe is a favorite starting point for fall repositioning sailings - many ships relocate to the Caribbean or locales close-by for the winter after spending the summer cruising the warm Mediterranean. For example, you could start your vacation with a land-stay in Paris or London before beginning your voyage to Madeira, Spain, Portugal, and the Canary Islands on a Barcelona to Ft. Lauderdale transatlantic cruise, such as Royal Caribbean's 13-night voyage aboard Navigator of the Seas.

Extended ocean retreats can be particularly affordable, but if you've only less than a week, consider a shorter sailing. There are repositioning cruises that won't take a big chunk out of your wallet or your allotted vacation time. Holland America's has a 4-night Pacific Coastal itinerary for only $349. With these deals, you can finally take that vacation you've been putting off, especially as a Travelers Advantage member.
