The Brief
I pitched this idea to a brand new client on the back of new data showing that Americans are spending more on luxury cruise liners than ever before, and are therefore prime candidates to move over to private yacht charters. Denison Yacht Sales, based in the cruise ship heartland of Florida, snapped the idea up and commissioned the article immediately.
Cruise ships vs private yachts: is it time for an upgrade?
There are two camps when it comes to cruise ships. There are those who swear by them; citing the endless food, the views, the entertainment, and the wonderful places they visit. And then there are those who absolutely hate them; citing the mass-produced food, the queues, the stressful disembarkations, and the lack of freedom to stop and explore where you please. There are many great things about cruise liners, from the evening shows and shore excursions to the casinos and huge waterslides. But for those who would prefer something more luxurious, more personalised, and infinitely more special, it is time to leave cruise ships behind. If you’re starting to spend a fair bit on your cruise ship vacations, then you’ve got some thinking to do. There really is a better way to travel. Welcome to the world of private yacht charter, where you get to call the shots and have the holiday of your dreams, rather than just be a tiny cog in a giant cruise ship machine. Believe me, as you sit on the deck of your first charter yacht and look at a looming cruise ship in the distance, you’ll kick yourself for not making the switch sooner.
