I love cruising so a world cruise should be my dream? Right? Well... Not exactly! There's lots of reasons why I don't want to take a world cruise and I'll explore them in this video.

n an average year 20 million people take a cruise and tens of thousands of them book a trip that is over 90 days long. These world cruises range all the way up to almost a year in length and even though I have been cruising since I was a child, I work onboard ships and I cruise multiple times a year, I don’t want to take a world cruise, for a few reasons. Price isn’t one of the reasons either, if you gave me a world cruise budget I have another idea what I’d do with it.

The cruise that has been attracting the worlds attention lately is Royal Caribbeans 274 night Ultimate World Cruise. It starts in Miami, heading around the Americas before crossing over to the pacific, passing through the middle east and Europe before ending again in the US. That means the passengers pack up and leave their homes and families in December and don’t get home again until the following September. Given the prices of some of these cruises some people won’t just be packing up their homes, but they’ll be selling them completely, or cashing in their pensions to fund the trip.

I say cashing in their pensions because although the average age of somebody taking a cruise in the Caribbean is 43 and there are plenty of cruise lines aimed at families the average world cruiser is 20 years older coming in at an average age of 63.

There are lots of cruise lines that do world cruises every year, they vary a lot in the ships decor, the formality, the passengers but the one thing that they have in common is that they always seem to use their oldest and smallest ships for these itineraries. I say small, they still usually hold multiple thousands of people but for me I think I’d miss the excitement of the newer ships.

I have cruised on plenty of small ships, the smallest ship I’ve sailed on had just 19 passengers but there is something so fun for me personally about going on a cruise ship and going go karting or skydiving or surfing I love watching the big broadway shows, going to the aqua theatre or the ice skating rink. The ships doing world cruises don’t have those things.

I suppose nobody really needs try the surfing simulator every day for 9 months, but just think how good you’d be by the end!
