Repositioning cruises 2024 and 2025: Save money with these unusual itineraries

Looking for a cruise where you can truly kick back and take advantage of onboard amenities without getting caught up in the hustle and bustle of a different port of call every day? Consider a repositioning cruise.

Repositioning cruises are the name for one-way sailings that bring the ship to a new home port or a different part of the world to kick-start a new cruise season. Because these sailings often cross oceans, you'll likely experience ports in more than one cruise region — and have ample sea days to take advantage of the spa, dining and entertainment options on board.

All the major cruise lines offer the occasional repositioning cruises, typically on ships that usually sail in destinations with shorter seasons, such as Alaska or the Mediterranean . Here, we answer all your questions about repositioning cruises.

What is a repositioning cruise?

Cruise ships chase warm and sunny climates, so they often move, or "reposition," from one part of the world to another when chilly weather sets in. Cruise lines don't want to sail a ghost ship, one carrying only crew and no passengers, across the ocean because it's wasting an opportunity to earn money. They have figured out that by discounting rates, they can fill the cabins on these oddball itineraries.

Repositioning cruises are never round-trip sailings. Your origin and destination cities — or, in cruise-speak , embarkation and disembarkation ports — will not be the same. You might sail out of Florida and arrive in Barcelona or Southampton, England, allowing you to explore two continents on one vacation. Or, you might simply sail from Boston to Florida or from San Diego to Vancouver, British Columbia.

Repositioning cruises are known for having a greater-than-average number of days spent at sea, but it's not as if you never get off the ship. On a transatlantic sailing , port stops could be in Spain's Canary Islands or Portugal's Azores islands. A repositioning cruise from Southern California to Vancouver before the Alaska cruise season might sail up the Pacific Coast and visit cities like San Francisco and Astoria, Oregon.

Another aspect that makes a repositioning cruise different from a typical sailing is that many of these itineraries are longer than a week. (This is by design. It takes longer to sail from Florida to Europe than it does to sail to and from the Caribbean .) Still, there is a lot of flexibility, just as with booking any cruise. The shortest you'll find is four or five days (for example, Southern California to Vancouver) and the longest is around 28 nights (yes, almost an entire month, usually between continents).

Are repositioning cruises one-way?

Yes, repositioning cruises are one-way voyages that start in one region and end in another. Because they happen when a cruise ship switches destinations based on seasonality, these sailings often involve travel to a different part of the world, which can result in many consecutive days at sea.

Where and what time of year do cruise ships reposition?

The good news is you can book a repositioning cruise nearly six months out of the year, spanning mid-spring and mid-fall months, which are the cruise lines' shoulder seasons.

Because repositioning cruises are not all tied to the same destination, this only widens your options in terms of geography. To envision where these will sail and when, you need to know a destination's cruise season.

Take Europe as an example. The majority of Mediterranean and Baltic sailings take place in the spring through the early fall. Europe-based ships flee the region during the winter, spending November through March in the warm Caribbean. Therefore, a ship will need to travel from the Caribbean to Europe in spring and return to the Caribbean by fall. Look for transatlantic repositioning cruises during those changeover months.

Some ships stay in the Caribbean year-round and only reposition when the cruise line chooses to move them to a different home port. However, ships sailing short seasons in Alaska, South America, Canada/New England and Europe will always be repositioned at least twice a year.

Due to increased cruise itineraries in the Middle East and Asia over the last decade, you might also find a repositioning cruise departing or returning to either of those regions. For example, MSC Cruises offers cruises from Dubai in the United Arab Emirates to Genoa, Italy, in April prior to sailing European itineraries in the spring and summer. Just be prepared to be away from home for a long time. The aforementioned sailing lasts about three weeks — a long trek through the Suez Canal, connecting the Red Sea and the Mediterranean Sea, by way of Egypt.

Note: Many cruise lines have canceled or altered their 2024 Middle East itineraries due to unrest in the region.

What happens on a repositioning cruise?

On many repositioning cruises, you will not get off the ship as often as you might on a typical sailing because there are no ports in the middle of the ocean you're crossing. These itineraries often feature a string of sea days, so be prepared to spend more time and money on board.

Some people love port-intensive cruises so they can quickly check off a list of countries and only unpack once. But if you prefer leisurely, lazy days, then a transoceanic repositioning cruise might be your ticket to utopia. This huge stretch of time is a great opportunity to crack open books you've been meaning to read, launch into a knitting project or finally have time for daily workouts.

Programming — such as comedy nights, fitness classes, boutique shopping, art auctions, wine tastings and evening shows — are as much a part of a repositioning cruise as any other sailing, only you might be able to take in a whole lot more than you normally would. Some cruise lines organize themed sailings or invite guest lecturers on board for extra sea day activities.

You also might want to consider springing for a cruise line's all-inclusive beverage package on a repositioning cruise. You'll get better value than usual from the price because you'll be ordering most of your drinks on board due to fewer port stops.

Another worthwhile splurge is a balcony cabin . You'll have easy access to fresh air without the top-deck crowds and can enjoy the romance of gazing out at the seemingly endless ocean. Just be sure to pack a sweater or sweatshirt because shoulder seasons in these climates are not necessarily sunbathing weather.

What are the advantages and disadvantages of a repositioning cruise?

When you book a repositioning cruise, you'll likely be on board for at least two weeks, allowing enough time for the ship to sail between where it's currently based and its new home port. Sometimes the voyage can be even longer, and it's likely you won't have more than five or six port stops during that time.

That means lots of days on board, many of them consecutive. It's an advantage for anyone who enjoys relaxing at sea and doesn't mind exploring the ship for days at a time without touching land; it's a disadvantage for anyone who sees cruises as merely transportation to explore new places.

An advantage of repositionings is the price, which is often cheaper than what you'd pay for a round-trip sailing of the same length or which has more port days built into the schedule. However, the cost of the potentially expensive one-way or open-jaw flights needed before and after a repositioning cruise could eat up most of the money you'd save by booking that type of voyage.

Do you need a passport for a repositioning cruise?

Yes. The only time you don't need a passport to cruise is if you're booked on a closed-loop sailing — a voyage that departs from and returns to the same port within the U.S. Since repositioning cruises don't leave from and return to the same port, the exception won't apply, and you'll need a passport in order to board the ship.

Are repositioning cruises cheaper than other cruises?

It depends on the sailings to which you're comparing them, but repositioning cruises are often relatively affordable. Even though repositioning sailings can often be two to three weeks in length, you might find that they're less expensive than a regular weeklong voyage that begins and ends in the same port of call. That's because repositioning cruises offer mostly sea days, during which you'll be enjoying the ship instead of lounging on the beach or exploring museums.

How to score repositioning cruise deals

More often than not, a repositioning cruise is a good deal because it costs much less per night than a typical sailing. This is because the one-way, sea day-heavy itineraries are less desirable to the majority of cruisers, and they take place during slower travel seasons.

Related: 6 ways to get a deal on a cruise

Travelers who live near the embarkation or debarkation ports can save even more by only having to buy a one-way plane ticket rather than a full round trip.

Repositioning cruises can be tricky to find on booking sites. They often are referred to as repositioning cruises or transatlantic or transpacific cruises. When ships reposition between ports in the U.S. and Canada, the one-off one-way itineraries might not be labeled anything special beyond Caribbean or Pacific Coast cruises.

Not all of the cruise line or online travel agency booking pages have an option to check a box and search for repositioning cruises. If you can't find what you're looking for, do an online search for the term and the cruise line you wish to sail. Even better, call a travel agent or the cruise line's booking staff directly, and they can help you find the repositioning cruise that's best for you.

Note: RepositionCruises.com selects the relocation itineraries from the ship schedules available at CruiseMapper.com .

What is a “Repositioning Cruise” (definition)

“Repositioning Cruise” is a one-off sea/ocean voyage that cruise passenger ships make when transferring from one operational region to another. Usually, this is done in Spring and Fall, often each year. But there are some exceptions to these “usual times”. Your off-season vacations will be marked by discounted cheap rates, big (yet not crowded) cruise ships, lots of “lazy leisure days” to enjoy the tranquillity of the sea.

Ship relocation deals are the preferable option for “highly addicted” travelers to enjoy a truly special and most affordable sea cruising vacation. The special ship relocation voyages always feature a one-way itinerary (connecting different embarkation and disembarkation ports) since cruise ships relatively often change their sailing areas due to economic reasons.

Another prominent feature of all these “ship transition cruises” deals is the bargain price – they all are really really cheap in comparison to the ship’s regular cruise rates. Repositioning deals are rarely called that way by travel agents or in companies’ brochures. One of the most popular substitute names officially used by the industry’s representatives is “Discovery Voyage”.

The list of synonyms for repositioning voyages includes: “Relocation Cruises”, “Transit-” or “Transition Cruises”, “Crossings” (also with “Eastbound” and “Westbound”). Of course, the most traditional (by definition) is “One-Way”, and also by destination – “Panama Canal”, “Suez Canal”, “Transpacific” and “Transatlantic”.

The reasons to book a relocation voyage are so many. These special offers are “different” voyages that offer unique opportunities like Atlantic Ocean crossings, visiting and sailing Alaska, Hawaii, and transiting Suez Canal and Panama Canal’s new locks (a true engineering miracle).

When considering this unique type of travel vacation-themed as “Repositioning Cruises”, know that it’s all about long and exciting voyages, transiting famous canals, crossing the world’s biggest oceans. You’ll be most probably sailing coast to coast, often from one sea to another. It’s about comfort and impeccable service on some of the world’s best cruise liners. It’s about all the fun you can get on up to 3-week transitions visiting different continents, changing cold with warm climates. It’s about a resort-type swimming pool and Jacuzzi experiences, gourmet cuisine, bingo and casino thrills, onboard duty-free shopping. Some ships even offer rock climbing, surfing, Zip-lining, hovering, and ice-skating at sea.

Why take reposition cruises?

• It’s a longer (often Transoceanic) voyage
• The itinerary has only a few ports of call. Destinations are from the “special and exotic” category, featuring Africa, South America, Transatlantic and Transpacific, US East Coast and the Caribbean, often Asia and Australia.
• Top-option for “best fun” experiences on bigger passenger ships, with a lot more sea days than on a normal voyage.
• Irresistibly cheap rates – most affordable to cheap cruise rates on both mainstream and top luxury ships when they relocate in Spring and Fall each year.
• These are all low-season discounted deals on alluringly low-priced cruises.

Still, whoever is blessed with enough free time and an adventurous spirit may enjoy each year at least one of the not-so-many repositioning cruise ships.

Repositioning cruise – examples, benefits, disadvantages

• Passenger ships sailing during the hot summer in Alaska relocate in the Fall to the Caribbean Sea region through Panama Canal, or to Hawaii and then to Australia or Asia for their winter seasons.
• Ships from Northern Europe sail to the Mediterranean Sea or across the Atlantic Ocean to operate roundtrip itineraries leaving from USA ports (Florida and New York mostly) or to the Caribbean for round-trips from Barbados or Puerto Rico.
• Ships move from South America to Florida (for the Caribbean) or Transatlantic to Europe (Baltic or Mediterranean) in early Spring.
• Search for ships sailing along Africa’s east coast. In the Fall they will be departing from UK (Southampton, mainly) to South Africa (Cape Town or Durban). In spring they will return (usually departing from Cape Town) to the UK or the Mediterranean. Such sailings are offered mainly by MSC and luxury ships.
• They are cheap! The lower to absolutely cheapest price is the most important factor for the popularity of these special deals. The average cost of a repositioning cruise is up to 50% less compared to a typical round-trip sailing from the same port. And the best index is the “Price Per Person Per Day” – it could be as low as USD 40!
• All relocation cruises offer a full set of entertainment and dining options onboard – they are just like the regular ones. This is the perfect chance to sample all the stuff on board since you are going to spend so much time at sea. There are even more onboard activities while ships reposition! The list of the “bonuses” includes guest lecturers, top comedians, and numerous themed activities and games to entertain guests.
• And yes – the repositioning cruise ships are almost always not crowded.

Disadvantages

• Too much time aboard the ship instead of visiting different ports of call (sea intensive as opposed to port intensive). Some find it pretty boring.
• Embarkation and disembarkation not in the same port increase the expenses as to additional flight fares added to the cruise ticket price.
• Spending a lot of time aboard the ship might tempt you to enjoy more “money spending fun” by splurging on bar drinks and gambling in the casino.
• The duration of relocation cruises – some last up to 18 days, and most people cannot afford so much time off work.
• You may experience an occasional “bumpy ride” due to rough waters (especially on smaller ships), and often “choppy weather” as your ship transits from one part of the globe to another. The “changing weather” issue will also have an impact on your packing list.

What time of year are the cheapest Repositioning Cruises?

Most of them are operated in Spring and Fall. Some exceptions are a few ship relocation itineraries in late-August, and some very rare very late re-position sailings in December, January, or February. The best and most busy months with readily available and cheap relocation cruise deals are April-May and September-October.

What are the best Repositioning Cruises?

All these company decisions are made with economic considerations in mind. Companies do cruise ship repositioning to improve profits by departing from different homeports or to more attractive destinations.

Some of the companies relocate vessels each year crossing the Atlantic Ocean between Europe and the USA (Florida, New York, Boston) or South America (Brazil, Argentina).

Some ships reposition between Alaska and Australia (Transpacific) or between Alaska and Florida (with Panama Canal transits). Some lines offer to transit through Suez Canal on repositioning between Europe and Asia (the Red Sea or East Asia).

So what you gotta do is choose a destination and departure port. If you are a big fan of a particular company – just search its page here – it is that simple. If you ask “the best of the best” not as best prices, but rather as experiences, the simple answer to this question is “luxury cruises”. Generally, luxury cruise deals offer smaller ship cruise travel marked by sophisticated, all-inclusive, superb service experiences.

The list of top luxury lines includes Crystal, Seabourn, Azamara, Oceania. The more “affordable luxury” brands are Cunard, Celebrity, Princess, Holland America. If you love budget travel, save money and book deals on Carnival, RCI-Royal Caribbean, Costa, MSC – the cheapest of them all. Of course, the savings you can always spend on “ship drinks”, onboard gambling, Spa-beauty treatments and whatnot – the choice is always yours to make!

What Is a Repositioning Cruise?

Last updated: November 6th, 2023

• Find a Cruise

A repositioning cruise is an exciting journey full of relaxing days at sea and stops in exotic destinations along the way. These one-way itineraries start in one major cruise destination and end in another.

Typically, these one-way itineraries take place during changing cruise seasons when ships reposition to locations where there’s warmer weather.

How do repositioning cruises work?

Celebrity Ascent

Ships that sail around destinations that have a limited cruise season (such as Alaska and the Mediterranean) usually offer a repositioning cruise itinerary twice a year.

For example, Alaska’s cruise season runs from May to September, which means that during the off-season months, the ship will be sailing around another region of the world.

In April, a few weeks before Alaska’s cruise season takes off, a ship will embark on a repositioning cruise that sails from Asia to Alaska, where it will remain until September. Then, another repositioning cruise will open up, this time heading back towards Asia, where it will stay during Alaska’s off-season.

Is a repositioning cruise the same as a transatlantic cruise?

Celebrity Beyond

Not necessarily. Many ships do reposition across the Atlantic as they move between Europe and the Caribbean , or the East Coast, or South America.

But a repositioning cruise might follow a completely different route. For example, it could travel from Hawaii to Sydney across the Pacific, or through the Panama Canal.

“Repositioning” is a general term for when a ship moves from one sailing area to another and isn’t connected to a specific route.

How long is a repositioning cruise?

Infinite Veranda Stateroom on Celebrity Beyond

Since repositioning cruises have to travel such long distances, they tend to be lengthier and can last anywhere from 13 to 19 nights.

It’s also important to know that repositioning cruises often spend several consecutive days at sea (some itineraries spend up to 10 nights).

What are the benefits of a repositioning cruise?

Celebrity Beyond Villa

There are several benefits to a repositioning cruise. You’ll have blissful, uninterrupted days at sea during which you can enjoy the ship, keep a watch for marine life, relax, have time to yourself, and generally get into the rhythm of cruising.

A repositioning cruise also takes you along unusual routes across the globe. More often than not, you’ll visit two continents in one vacation. Some repositioning cruises take you from the old world to the new, or vice versa, as you sail between the U.S. and Europe.

For many, a repositioning cruise is an adventure. Because you’re crossing an ocean, you get a different perspective on slow travel and the vastness of the world.

What is there to do on the ship?

If you’re worried about how you’ll be able to fill all those days at sea, there are plenty of entertaining and relaxing activities to engage in while cruising on one of our award-winning ships .

Feel like you’ve escaped to a five-star spa resort by getting pampered at the onboard spa, a state-of-the-art facility where you can enjoy oxygen facials, hot stone massages, and wellness and exercise classes.

On Edge-Series ships, we also offer the SEA Thermal Suite , which consists of eight different relaxation rooms, including a hammam, crystalarium, salt room, steam room, infrared sauna room, float room, rainfall water therapy room, and a traditional relaxation room with heated tile loungers.

Or use those days at sea to learn new skills or take up a new hobby. Sign up for wine classes with a sommelier, visit the computer room and learn how to edit pictures and videos, or take a photography class. You’ll also find culinary lessons, arts and crafts activities, and even mixology classes during your time onboard.

The Lawn Club

Repositioning cruises are an excellent way to bond as a family. Spend days at sea having fun together in the game room, playing shuffleboard and croquet in the Lawn Club (on Solstice-Class ships), and enjoying meals together at the world-class restaurants onboard.

Reserve a night at Le Petit Chef, where the food is served along with an interactive 3-D table show, or head to Eden on Edge-series ships, where a number of sensory experiences and playful performances await.

Where can I sail on a repositioning cruise?

• Barcelona, Spain

Some of the major embarkation and debarkation ports for our repositioning cruise itineraries include the following:

• Buenos Aires, Argentina

• Honolulu, Hawaii
• Lisbon, Portugal
• Los Angeles, California
• Miami, Florida
• Rio De Janeiro, Brazil

What are some typical repositioning cruise itineraries?

Here are some examples of our transatlantic and transpacific cruise itineraries:

Florida to Rome

Rome, Italy

We offer a wide range of cruises from Florida to Europe , with ships departing Fort Lauderdale and Tampa. Typically, your cruise might call at sunny Bermuda after three days at sea, breaking the journey again in the Portuguese-owned islands of the Azores.

Other itineraries take you across the Atlantic to the Spanish Canary Islands, basking off the west coast of Africa, and calling at lush Madeira before heading to continental Europe.

Sydney to Honolulu

If you’re in Australia, you can embark on a transpacific cruise from Sydney to Hawaii, where you’ll stop in New Zealand’s Bay of Islands and Auckland. Then you’ll sail east until you cross the International Dateline, where you’ll subtract 24 hours from your current time.

Afterward, you’ll visit the Polynesian islands of Tahiti and Bora and Bora and cruise for five more nights before reaching Lahaina, Maui, and your final port of call, Honolulu.

Europe to Florida

Palma de Mallorca, Spain

There’s a wide choice of ports in which to start your westbound Atlantic repositioning cruise. If you want to explore the Mediterranean before heading west, pick a voyage that starts in Barcelona or Rome.

From Rome , you’ll stop at ports such as Toulon in France, Palma de Mallorca, Cartagena, and Malaga before leaving Europe behind.

Start in Barcelona and you’ll see Alicante and Gibraltar, with stops during the crossing in the Azores and Bermuda.

Alternatively, sail from Southampton, England and you could have a day in both Porto and Lisbon before starting the crossing, breaking the journey in Bermuda.

What should I pack?

Packing for a repositioning cruise is different from packing for a shorter cruise since you’ll experience multiple destinations and climates during your vacation.

The most important cruise packing tip for these itineraries is to bring plenty of layers that can be mixed and matched. Layers are key to making sure you’re comfortable during the duration of your cruise. 

Breathable t-shirts and long linen pants for tropical or other balmy-weather stops will pair well with cardigans and sweaters for cooler days in ports or evenings out on your stateroom’s veranda.

If you think you may be prone to seasickness during your cruise , pack some anti-nausea medication. Some travelers also find ginger supplements and pressure point bands to be helpful in combating seasickness.

Cruise Deals by Cruise Line & Destination

Repositioning cruise deals.

Repositioning cruises are a little secret of the cruise industry and are one of the hottest cruise deals around! These are longer itineraries that usually take passengers from one continent to another as ships are repositioned from one seasonal destination to another. Best of all, they are offered at amazingly affordable prices! View our best repositioning cruise deals below, and get ready to see the world.

The reason these amazing itineraries are so affordable is that the ships are sailing in between seasons. So a ship in Alaska may leave in October to sail to Asia, or a ship in Europe might sail to the Caribbean in the winter. So if you want an amazing itinerary and you’re flexible with your time, a repositioning cruise might be perfect. Scroll down to check out our cruise specials and repositioning cruise deals.

Repositioning

To see discounted cruises in this region, use the Find a Bargain box on the left.

Rock-bottom prices, varied itineraries and a large number of relaxing days at sea are all unique characteristics of a Repositioning cruise. Usually offered in the fall and spring months, this interesting cruise option allows you to journey to uncommon and even exotic ports of call as a cruise ship relocates to a new region.

Whether you're a seasoned traveler looking to visit new ports of call or a cruise novice interested in an unbelievable deal, a Repositioning cruise will give you a unique opportunity to embark on an out-of-the-ordinary journey to see multiple destinations and sometimes different continents of the world. The most common itineraries feature sailings from Alaska to Hawaii or Transatlantic voyages from the Mediterranean to the Caribbean in the fall, or the reverse in the spring, although there is an endless combination of itineraries periodically offered throughout the year as ships move from region to region around the globe. Spend days relaxing onboard resort-style ships as you cruise to or from seasonal cruise regions like Bermuda, Alaska, the Mediterranean, Northern Europe, the Panama Canal, Hawaii and Asia, stopping to explore ports of call along the way.

• Repositioning cruises primarily operate during the spring and fall months when ships are relocating to and from major cruise regions, although these cruises are offered periodically throughout the year.  
• Repositioning cruises vary greatly in length. Most are longer than a week, lasting at least 10 nights.  
• Repositioning cruises leave from major departure ports all over the world, among them are Miami, London, Rome, Buenos Aires and Anchorage. You will have to arrange one-way air to the port of embarkation and from the port of disembarkation. If you must fly a very long distance to reach your port of departure, we suggest that you arrive at the port city at least one or two days in advance of your Repositioning cruise. This will give you time to rest and get oriented before boarding the ship. Most cruise lines offer pre-cruise hotel packages.

How to find the best deals with repositioning cruises

Signing up for credit cards through partner links earns us a commission. Terms apply to the offers listed on this page. Here’s our full advertising policy: How we make money .

One of my favorite travel hacks, when I’m planning out a longer trip, is to look for one-way flights . This offers a lot of flexibility in that I’m not locked into leaving from my original destination. Recently, I discovered that this strategy can be applied to cruises as well. Who knew?

A repositioning cruise is basically a discounted cruise that is going just one way (instead of round trip). Occasionally, you’ll see these pop up when a cruise line is moving a ship to a different region to maximize on a different peak season. This is a great option for anyone who is looking to relax on a cruise and then maintain the flexibility and speed of booking air travel for the other leg of the trip.

Top 3 sites to find cheap repositioning cruises

When you start to think about traveling this way, it’s a great concept, right? So where can we find these magical repositioning cruise deals? Here are the top three sites that I typically search when looking for a cheap repositioning cruise.

Vacations To Go

You can find repositioning cruises when you visit the Vacations To Go site and click on “regions.” On the left side of the resulting page, you’ll see a box called “Find a Bargain.” Within that box, click on the “All regions” drop-down menu and select “Repositioning” from the list.

One thing that I like about this site is that you can sort by the percentage of savings. Although you will often find a better deal directly on a given cruise line’s website, this is a great starting point to see an aggregated list of cruise lines, the duration of the trip, and the discount you’re receiving on the repositioning cruise. 

CruiseDirect

Have you suddenly found yourself with some unexpected time off? Looking to book some last-minute travel plans? The CruiseDirect Deals page lists a ton of really great offers on last-minute cruises. You can filter these by price, duration, and date range. There’s not a specific filter for “repositioning,” but you can search for the term and some results should pop up.

The Cruise Web

The Cruise Web has a full section dedicated to repositioning cruises , which makes it really easy to search and sort for the cruise that you’re looking for. Although this site doesn’t offer as robust of a list as Vacations To Go, it offers a lot of great information about repositioning cruises in general — and you can still find some fantastic deals. 

List of repositioning cruises by cruise line

Here is a list of repositioning cruises by cruise line, linking directly to the cruise line’s website to help you find the best deal.

• Royal Caribbean International : The Royal Caribbean deals page offers a wide range of options.
• Virgin : A dedicated page shows repositioning cruises with this cruise line. 
• Disney Cruise Line : One of the most popular cruise lines, especially for families with small children. Some cruises that are offered begin in the United States and end in Europe.
• Carnival Cruise Line : You can search for transatlantic cruises on Carnival, many of which originate in Europe. 
• Norwegian Cruise Line (NCL ): Check out Norwegian’s “extraordinary destinations” page for deals on cruises. 
• Pullmantur Cruises : This cruise line offers special deals on transatlantic cruises. 
• Costa Cruises : You can find stellar deals for transoceanic routes on Costa Cruises. 
• Celebrity Cruises : Search for transatlantic cruises by departure port. 

Things to look out for with repositioning cruise deals

Before you book your cruise, here are a few things to consider. 

Not all cruise lines are created equal

Like with any major purchase, it’s always a good idea to read the reviews before you commit to booking the cruise. Look for unbiased sources. In other words, a review on the cruise line’s website might not hold as much weight as one submitted on an aggregator, like Cruise Direct (where you can search for the “customer rating”). 

Check # of days at sea and port calls

This is a tip that I probably wouldn’t have initially considered, but I think it’s really important. When you’re evaluating which cruise to take, look at the number of days you’ll be at sea and the port calls (how many times the ship will stop and let passengers disembark for a bit). It’s unusual to find a cruise with no port calls, but it does happen. So, unless you think you wouldn’t mind taking a 21-day cruise with zero stops, this is a big one to keep in mind. 

Oceanview and balcony room prices can be similar

The difference between an oceanview room and a balcony room is exactly as you’d imagine: An oceanview room has a window, and a balcony room has a small veranda that you can walk out on (giving you a bit more space). Sometimes the pricing for a balcony room is comparable to an oceanview room, which is good to keep in mind when you’re searching for cruise deals. 

Bottom line

Repositioning cruises are a cheaper way to cross the Atlantic for those who are looking for a bit of a slower journey. I like the thought of taking a cruise one way; it feels like an adventure. There are several good resources for finding this type of cruise, listed above. The key is to figure out how many days you’d like to travel and where you want to go. Have you considered taking a repositioning cruise? We’d love to hear your thoughts below!
