- We tell our experience of being on a transatlantic cruise ship with other cruise passengers noting who a transatlantic cruise is best for and who should stay away! What do cruise ships do with passengers in the middle of the ocean? How do Cruise Ship Crew entertain cruise passengers on a Transatlantic Cruise? Do cruise ship passengers get bored on a Repositioning Cruise? We talk through our experiences being on Transatlantic cruise ships and who should not book a Transatlantic Cruise Ship in 2023.

I can see how being "stranded together" makes people more social and open with each other. No ports, just people for fun. Forces you to really try to make sure the social is top notch.
You guys have made me realize what a perfect transatlantic crossing I experienced last year on the Apex. Blue skies, warm air, friendly people, and never rough seas. Maybe I was just lucky.
Having amazing weather during a TA is an incredible gift! That’s so wonderful!
I wanna go on a transatlantic cruise solo, but i'm wondering , do you see many people that are traveling solo on the transatlantic cruises or is it mainly couples? I'm also very nervous about really, really bad weather...not worried about the cloudy days or bad weather, just high waves!
Having done Barcelona to Port Canaveral on WOTS last November, I can honestly say that the 8 sea days was where the holiday really began. After 4 ports it felt like we'd become hamsters on a wheel (!) but 8 days at sea to Nassau we REALLY relaxed, and that was includind skirting a hurricane! We've booked Lisbon to San Juan (Puerto Rico) on the new NCL ship next year. It has a very interesting itinery too! Looking forward to it!
I just booked a 14 night on Oasis to Spain out of Miami so THANK YOU for the info! It is a solo but I don't plan on being "alone" hehe
Took 3 transatlantic cruises from Europe to USA and one from Asia and loved them all on Princess. We knocked ourselves out sightseeing before and enjoyed every day at sea
I've taken two transatlantic cruised..Viking and Virgin. Although totally different but both were equally fun. Viking is more the 'thinking person's cruise, and Virgin is just pure FUN. I do love the sea days and the occasional port stops. As an example, on Virgin, we stopped at Bimini, Lisbon, Cadiz, and Mallorca. The passengers ( or on Virgin, the sailors) trend older and NO children. I would definitely do another. For a solo traveler, I found the fare to be extraordinarily low. I sailed both in December and May, and I managed to acquire a great poolside tan. Highly recommend.
I loved my TA on Wonder OTS last November. It is absolutely for people who enjoy sea days, cause there are a lot of those! Soooo when's the JJ Cruise transatlantic group cruise?? 😎
Hey guys. Happy Sunday and happy Mother’s Day to the mums in your life. That is the main thing I hear about transatlantic cruises is rough waters. Thanks for the insight
We have done 15 transatlantic crossings and are so hooked! All the reasons you state play in to our love of TAs. Our #1 is relaxation. It was fun to say a brief hello to you this trip a couple of times as well. I highly recommend the reliefband for sea sickness. I have used it for 20 years. It is no longer prescription only. I own several versions and loan mine often and folks always end up buying their own. Happy sailing!
That's so awesome that Brothers can take such a incredible trip together
Yes, it’s an incredible trip but they’re a married couple, not brothers.
Hi JJ! (I'm Heather's mom. ) I came back from Hawaii during the time of the "Pineapple Express" . Unfortunately, I was in bed the whole time!! But Hawaii was wonderful!❤
Nice (briefly) meeting the two of you on the Apex transatlantic cruise...it was a wonderful trip with great ports. It was our third crossing, we did a transpacific and another transatlantic heading west from Barcelona.
My 2nd Transatlantic is in 20 days and my 3rd is in November. I agree 100% with all your points! Cost: The 12 day cruise I have coming up costs about half of the 3 day Bahamas cruise I have at the end of August. Entertainment: My first TA a year ago was 14 nights and they had a completely different show every single night in the main theater or ice rink. 14 different shows! I have one other good reason - points. Not everyone is into it, but I earned 56 points on my Royal TA last year (4 per night) which leapfrogged me from Platinum past Emerald to Diamond. Similarly, this cruise coming up will earn me 48 points (also 4 per night), which will leapfrog me from Norwegian Silver past Gold directly to Platinum.
How do you gwt 4 points per night?
@@brentmorrow3682 On Royal you get 2 points for cruising solo in a regular cabin (below suite). In 2022, to get people back on the ships, they were doubling it so a solo guest in a regular cabin got 4 points per night. You just had to book by a certain date and sail by a certain date. On NCL you only get one point if you're solo (in a regular cabin, below suite) but they regularly offer extra points as Latitude Rewards Insider Offers. For the other cruise I mentioned it was 3 additional points per night so 4 total.
Love you guys. Just finished my first transatlantic on Anthem and loved it. I love sea days and because we were pretty docked in with fog, I totally relaxed, slept in, took naps. The downside was the loss of hours. By day 8 we had 5 spring ahead time zones and I was reduced to a puddle of tears. But I came back to life when we arrived in France since this was MY FIRST TIME TO EUROPE! Waiting for the 2025 schedule to come out because we are kinda pumped for a west bound TA. Any tips??
Am on a TA right now! Florida to Rotterdam. Very calm seas, lots to do on board, love it! Going ashore after six days at sea tomorrow. Very relaxing.
We are leaving on our first repositioning cruise on April 15th, 2024, from Baltimore. We are so excited to make this voyage to Barcelona. I want to know more about other options for repositioning cruises around the world. How would I find out about more cruises of this type? I love watching you guys! Your enthusiasm is so contagious. We would love to be on the same cruise with you someday.
i did my first transatlantic cruise on the Celebrity Apex in Nov 2023 and I loved all the sea days. I am looking for another transatlantic already!
We are doing our first on the Celebrity Apex May 2024. Can't wait.
Hey guys, Just got back my first Mediterrian cruise. We all had a great time. Maybe a transatlantic would be better then a 13 hour flight time home. Now just catching up on all the contend I miss last week.
Hi Guys...great video! I had a discussion with a co-worker today about this very subject. Sharing now so he can see it. Have fun!! Shane and Fernando
Thanks Shane and Fernando!! Definitely a worthwhile vacation for most 😉
Hey 👋 JJ Cruise & Crew.. We can't wait till our first TRANSATLANTIC end of '23
We are SO excited for you to experience your first TA. Thank you so much for the SUPER Thanks!! ❤️❤️❤️❤️
We booked our first Transatlantic cruise on Silhouette next spring and I'm going to try and work remote part-time. Looking forward to the adventure!
Awesome video. I think Trans Atlantic would be a good option for me and have it on the bucket list. Thank you!!
Great points. Thank you! I do want to take a transatlantic cruise some day.
Great tips! My favorite video, so far.. 😉
We've done six transatlantic crossings so far - three QM2 transatlantic round trips [with a fourth round trip booked for 2024]. So far as I know, only the QM2 provides the option of a round trip transatlantic.
I think the only way to cross the Atlantic is to be on the Queen Mary 2. That's an actual ocean liner, not a floating, top heavy resort on a barge.
Great info guys, thanks.
This is weird.. I’m the only one here 😂. Must be Mother’s day
Thanks guys very helpful. ❤️
Which do you guys prefer, east to west or west to east? Having sailed many years in the merchant marines I'll only sail east to west. 25 hour days are the best when there are several time changes in the schedule. Plus it seems to work better with my internal clock. It also means a short trip home once docked in the states. And have you ever noticed that all these round-the-world-cruises travel east to west? Now, if I could only convince my wife to take that east/west trip with me. Your video might convince her. Thanks.
We absolutely prefer the 25 hour days!
@@JJCruise My favorite thing is looking at the clock thinking I need to get to bed and suddenly realizing we turned the clocks back.
Love Transatlantic cruises. Forced Relaxation!!!!
Ever been on a cruise but maybe someday!
We are doing a 28 day transatlantic Med/Holy Land cruise next year. We fly to Athens then return to Ft Lauderdale (7 sea days). Please provide any feedback/advice. Our longest cruise 🚢 has been 14 days.
Watching.
Thank you for watching! ❤ Happy Mother’s Day.
I’ve never done a transatlantic or repositioning cruise. Is it possible to do a back to back crossing?
Have you been on the QM2 because? It might be a good cruise to take from new york to the UK. If you been on it before make sure you tell your subscribers and followers about it.
I have and The Q M 2 falls short of activities , it is very reserved , so I try to use another cruise line .
Subscribed but never got a notice. 1 week until our celebrity cruise
Good morning guys!
Good morning Bobby!
Which cruise line would you recommend for a TA ? We usually cruise Carnival, tu i am not sure they would have some of the activities you have mentioned.
Do you guys offer obc on carnival for Jan Feb?
Not being able to work is a pro, not a con. Meeting people is a con
Am I the only person to see Ronnie Reagan on the right ? 😮
Have you done a trans pacific?
Just did a transpacific cruise on Ovation of the Sea from Sydney to Honolulu.. Ship was great, staff was awesome, but the cuts Royal has made were bad.. Food was horrible… no lobster at all unless you bought it extra for $29. Drinks were so weak, measured alcohol on EVERY drink, no free pour. 5 days at sea, twice, so 10 days days out of 18. Was too much for me. They cut 1 port short instead of 2 days, we left 8 hours early and arrived in Honolulu a day early.. A LOT of upset people because our excursions on the 2nd day were cancelled.. The solarium and all outdoor decks were packed and chair holding was not enforced. The 18 days without work emails and calls was awesome and I enjoyed at least 2-3 hours a day in the hot tub… Glad I did it, but wont do it again with all the sea days.
