Repositioning cruises are when an itinerary begins in one port and ends in another, usually during the spring and fall (when the seasons change). Repositioning cruises can sail from region to region (Alaska to the Caribbean, for example), or from one side of the world to another (for example, Europe to the U.S.). If you are a traveler who is looking to experience more of the world in one sailing, a Repositioning cruise might be the perfect choice for you. Experienced cruisers will appreciate the broad range of cultures and landscapes you can experience in one trip. They are also good choices if you want to enjoy multiple sea days in a row, with fewer port stops.
There are many benefits to booking a Repositioning cruise. The most appealing benefit is that cruise lines often offer cheaper fares to attract travelers who don’t mind spending a few stretches of sea days. This will provide you with plenty of time to “escape” however you wish: by the pool, with a book, in the spa, and more. While there are a few port stops, there won’t be as many as there would be on a typical cruise. Reposioning cruises tend to be on the long side, and can last up to 18+ days, so it is perfect for those who have a flexible schedule.
American Discount Vacations is proud to offer the best deals possible on all Repositioning cruises booked with us. Backed by our "Low Price Guarantee," and powered by our team of expert travel agents, we're sure to exceed your expectations when booking your next Repositioning cruise!

Mainstream cruise lines are a great option for just about everyone (including multi-generation families, and first-time cruisers), and typically have great youth programs.
During the cruise, entertainment may include Broadway productions, Vegas-style shows, comedians, and music. Some of these lines have select formal nights during the cruise.
