The Worst Person for a Repositioning Cruise

Creator's Key Takeaways
Repositioning cruises are some of my absolute favorites. But here's what the cruise lines don't tell you. These cruises are not for everyone.
What happens when you have a cruise with a week of sea days in a row? People sometimes get bored and end up spending more money on things to entertain themselves.
It's better for a firsttime cruiser to pick a cruise that is shorter with a lot of port days.
The weather changes and it can change drastically. You can start out a cruise in Miami, for example, where it's 85 90 degrees and by day two it's barely 60.

Repositioning cruises can be an incredible way to see more of the world for less money. But they are not the right cruise for everyone. That $35-a-night deal may look like a bargain, but the long stretches at sea, unpredictable weather, limited entertainment, fewer port stops, and lack of familiar cruise amenities can make the experience disappointing for the wrong type of cruiser. 💰 The Best Cruise DEALS You Can Book Right Now!
