What you need to know about cruise and stay holidays
A cruise and stay holiday offers an array of benefits. The first and most obvious is that you can enjoy more time in your embarkation or disembarkation destinations. For some itineraries, this is a must – for example, we always suggest at least one night before a Caribbean cruise – but for others, it opens up opportunities to explore that you wouldn’t ordinarily have on standard embarkation days. In the Mediterranean, this might mean more time to see sights like the Acropolis in Athens or take in the historic landmarks in Rome. On an Alaska cruise, few experiences beat a rail journey aboard the iconic Rocky Mountaineer.
A cruise and stay package also lends itself to a higher degree of personalisation. A good agent – like The Cruise Line – will discuss what’s important to you and then create an itinerary that fulfils your requests – perhaps you want to explore ancient Machu Picchu, or spend time in Las Vegas following a transatlantic cruise to North America’s east coast. We will arrange every element, right down to luggage allowances and transfers for a seamless experience – and often at a price you won’t find anywhere else.

What is a cruise and stay holiday
A cruise and stay holiday is designed to be a seamless, “all-in-one” experience, with the logistics handled for you, leaving you free to enjoy the journey. By bundling your flights, transfers, and accommodations into a single booking, you benefit from better value and the peace of mind that comes with ATOL protection. It’s the ultimate stress-free way to pair a vibrant land-based adventure with the luxury of life at sea. What’s typically included:
- Return flights from a range of airports in the UK
- Stays at handpicked hotels throughout the best locations in the world.
- A cruise, often with almost everything included.
- Private overseas transfers between your airport, hotel(s) and the ship.
- Luggage and taxes
- Dedicated support from The Cruise Line team.
