Oceania Cruises

Top 5 Things to Love About Oceania Cruises.

- Debbi K. & William D. Kickham

Ahoy, upscale travelers! We recently sailed on an extended cruise for 28 days on Oceania Cruises, on the Insignia, from Rome, through the Mediterranean, up to Ireland, then across the Atlantic, back to the East Coast in Montreal. Why 28 days? Extended cruises are a hot new trend nowadays, as sophisticated travelers understand that a typical 10- to even 14-day cruise would never be enough to truly unwind and take in all that such an experience has to offer. After packing, planning – and most important – dealing with the torture that is air travel nowadays – intrepid cruisers increasingly sign up for extended cruises – if they’re not already considering a World Cruise, that is. (World Cruises can last anywhere from approximately 150 to 180 days.) In fact, on Oceania’s Insignia, we met numerous travelers who were “ATW’s” (on the “Around The World” cruise for seven months) – and they still expressed regret when disembarking. We sailed for almost a month and here is our report about what we like about Oceania. You’re going to love it too.
