YouTube Video Description↓

The three options available for kosher food on cruise ships are: 1) Kosher cruises offered on certain dates and on certain ships by the international cruise lines themselves. 2) Kosher cruises organized by private entities and sold as organized kosher cruise packages. 3) Ordering kosher food when booking the cruise itself, these dishes arrive prepared and packaged and are only heated on the ship. In this video, I explain the advantages and disadvantages of each alternative to going on a kosher cruise and compare them so that you can make the best decision - which option to choose when going on a cruise, if you are interested in maintaining kosher during your vacation abroad.
