Prices Fall this Autumn on Repositioning Cruises!

If you’re looking for a good deal on a cruise, and who isn’t, this is a great time to find them. During the fall there cruise lines have what are called “repositioning cruises,” when cruise lines move their ships from one part of the world to another due to the change in seasons. For instance, many ships sailing in Alaska and Europe are returning to warmer climes for the next sailing season.

This may mean a repositioning transatlantic sailing from Europe with some European port calls, a crossing of the “Big Pond” as well as some Caribbean calls before arriving in Fort Lauderdale, Miami or wherever their winter homeport is. This allows for a lot of sea days, which may not be for everybody, but many people love, because they get to completely relax and enjoy the sea experience. Of course, there are plenty of onboard amenities, if you choose to enjoy them or simply do nothing at all!

Ships repositioning from Alaska typically sail via the Panama Canal to warmer weather ports and some from Canada do trans-Pacific crossings to Hawaii.

The reason I am telling you this is most of the cruise lines offer excellent discounted rates on these cruises, so contact your cruise specialist and get all the details! A fall cruise is a great way to relax pre-holidays and get a very good deal at the same time.
