With the holidays and the end of the year fastly approaching a lot of people are also starting to plan next year’s family reunion. A new trend in family reunions has become extremely popular: cruise ship family reunions or (jokingly called) floating reunions.
That’s right”...cruise ships have become one of the more popular options for family reunions. They are a great way to bring several generations of the family together while exploring exotic ports of call and enjoying a luxury cruise ship at the same time.
Reunion planners can rest easy because cruise ships have on board activities for everyone in the family. Most ships have several swimming pools, movie theaters, rock climbing walls, spa services, video arcades, kids programs, fitness centers and classes, yoga classes, and entertainment for everyone. Group tours in ports of call can also be arranged and incorporated into the package.
Another plus for cruise ship family reunions is that the ships have accommodations to fit any budget. From interior cabins, to suites, ocean view staterooms or family cabins for 4 or more guests, cruise ships have cabins in everyone’s price range.
Cruise ship are also our favorite type of vacation, all-inclusive. This means all meals, select beverages, accommodations, entertainment and on board activities are included in the price. By traveling as a group, the reunion qualifies for group discounts and rates making travel even more affordable.
With the collection of home ports expanding, there’s probably a departure port close to everyone in the family. Popular home ports include Miami, NYC, Baltimore, Philadelphia, New Orleans, Seattle and Los Angeles.
