I have come to the conclusion that going on one of those great premium luxury cruises is actually worth all the money as well as being a lot better than taking a plane there. But why on earth is it better?

There really is no need to turn up at the dock 4 hours before you are due to set sail as your bags are checked through quickly which is great compared to the airports. As well as this there is no waiting to get to your destination as essentially as soon as you board the ship you are at your hotel room and can lie down and rest or jump straight into the pool.

As soon as you step onto the ship all of the bars, casinos and rest of the facilities are open as well as free room service. Free drinks are only really available on airlines that are expensive to travel on and that is only if you are flying long haul.

You actually have legroom! Welcome to a way of travelling without being squashed in for however many hours, go anywhere on the ship you can even take a jog on the jogging track.

Of course if something does happen all you have to do is get into a lifeboat rather than jump down a huge inflatable slide or worse die on impact. Theres no threat of terrorism whatsoever so you can sail with one less worry! Nope as it stands at the moment all you need to be afraid of is pirates.

Of course there is the possibility of storms but hey when that happens just head downstairs and relax with a game of pool or a nice drink, or even both!

I have to admit I love flying and I would never say cruise every year instead of flying to your favourite destination but going on a luxury cruise is nice every so often and with Regent Cruises (the one I went with) you are sure to have a better time than on an aeroplane.
