Transatlantic Cruises

Why do a Transatlantic Cruise?

• Westbound Cruises to the USA usually incorporate 5 days at sea when each day is 25 hours long to make up for the time difference between the UK and the USA. On arrival into the US you are in tune with the local time and ready to enjoy the delights of you visit as soon as you step off the ship.
• Eastbound cruises are a great relief after your visit to the USA with the prospect to not having to endure a cramped and boring overnight flight, the lengthy check in / security procedures at the airport and a big plus is beat the jet lag.
• Contrary to popular belief – Transatlantic cruises are not boring. They offer the ideal opportunity for uninterrupted relaxation and a chance to truly enjoy all of the facilities the ship has to offer.

Who cruises there?

• The most popular Transatlantic cruises are on the Cunard Queen Mary 2 which operates classic 6 night Voyages between Southampton and New York.
• Alternatively try one of the repositioning cruises in the spring or autumn on one of the big cruise ships such as Island, Ocean Village, MSC, NCL, Princess, P&O, Royal Caribbean & Celebrity.

When is the best time to go?

• The Cunard Queen Mary 2 is the only ship to run a schedule of services throughout the year from April to November.
• Other Transatlantic cruises operate when ships reposition between the Caribbean and Mediterranean in the spring and autumn.
