A cruise line has announced an epic cruise, an 180 day trip that will sail around the globe in 2024. The cruise will visit 96 destinations in 34 countries.
Oceania Cruises will offer the 180 day world cruise on their 684 passenger cruise ship, Insignia. The cruise will depart from Los Angeles on January 14, 2024 and end up in New York six months later. Along the way, the cruise ship will cross three oceans and 15 seas from the South Pacific to Europe.
This epic cruise features over 100 UNESCO World Heritage sites across 96 destinations, with 24 overnight stays and a series of curated complimentary special onshore events and optional multi-day overland programs.
The cruise starts at $48,499 per person and includes free first-class roundtrip airfare, an array of included amenities with the Exclusive Prestige Package such as free laundry services, a free visa package, free Internet, free pre-paid gratuities, free luggage delivery, plus Oceania Cruises’ inclusive OLife Choice amenities.
“Incredibly, last year our 2023 world cruise sold out in just one day, so for 2024 we are providing guests more extended voyage options to deeply and meaningfully rediscover the world,” said Howard Sherman, President and CEO of Oceania Cruises. “While a globe-circling journey is the pinnacle of life-changing travel experiences, we have specially curated a set of Grand Voyages for seasoned and time-rich travelers to navigate storied seas, straits and oceans that boldly connect diverse and exotic corners of the globe.”
