I listen to many clients everyday talking about how it's there life long dream to cruise into/out of New York past the Statue of Liberty and of course it has to be done on Cunards Queen Mary 2, one of the most famous ocean liners in the world.
Well it's ok dreaming about sailing into New York but when you think about it that really only lasts for half an hour or so, what about the six or seven days on the cruise ship before or after that moment? Well I got thinking about it.
The Southampton to New York crossing has become a timeless classic filled with Cunard glamour, you will get lost in another world, it's enduring appeal that lies in those elegant black tie balls, the impeccable hospitality and mouth-watering dining options. Not to mention the indulgent spa, largest libary afloat and if you dare try your hand in the casino.
Of course there is no point in going to New York and not having a bite of the apple. Spend a few days in the city before or after your cruise to make it the vacation of a lifetime. Everyone knows New York's attractions - Broadway, shopping, museums, Central Park, restaurants, nightclubs and more sophisticated fun than you can imagine.
Tips when choosing your Transatlantic Crossing
Southampton to New York
Pro - If you cruise from Southampton to New York you gain time along the way, so there will be 25 hours in your day (WOW)
Con - You actually arrive into New York at 06.30am so you will need to be up bright and early to catch a glimpse of the big city.
Con - If you are flying back from New York you will have luggage weight restrictions so beware when spending that well earned cash shopping.
New York To Southampton
Pro - If you fly to New York and cruise back to Southampton the moment you step off your flight you will have no luggage weight restrictions onboard the ship so you can shop till you drop and not have to worry.
Pro - You depart New York at 17.30pm so you won't have to be up early and can just sit back with a cocktail taking in the amazing city view.
