I booked CHEAP 4 and 5 night cruises. Was it worth it?
I went on a 4-night and 5-night Royal Caribbean cruises, but should I have just booked a weeklong cruise and been better off?

    Taking our first ever shorty in August. 5 nights on Grandeur out of Tampa w 2 ports, Grand Cayman and Cozumel. 2 awesome stops and simply skipping a couple of sea days. Small ship, 5 nighter, Diamond drinks and NO specialty dining is my new strategy to combat the exploding cruise fares. 😎

    Because we also need to fly to any cruise we take and are spending one or more nights in the port city, a 4 or 5 night cruise is often all we can manage, both in time commitment and in cost. 60% of the cruises I've taken were 4 or 5 nights; I'm less likely to be able to take a 7 night cruise.

    My wife and I just took our 3rd cruise on Freedom (4 nights) and thoroughly enjoyed ourselves. The only downside for us was the size of the ship… our first 2 cruises were on Wonder and Allure (7 nights with my family and 3 nights with her family respectively). This trip, however, was just the 2 of us… making it more enjoyable despite the smaller size of the ship.

    I've done a couple of 3 night cruises and hated them. I get lots of Casino Royale offers, and now they're mostly 3 or 4 days. I've done 4 days a few times and it's nice, but I miss having lobster night. If I had to pay, I would only do a 7 or 8 night.

  • @DanTheMarketr
    @DanTheMarketr 15 годин тому

    Definitely at least 7. Depending on traveling to the port for people which is a factor of time spent to get to the ship. Day 1 is a half day and the last day is nothing as you disembark early AM.

    We try for 7 nights because we have to fly in no matter where it is, but we also can’t swing two 7 nights a year. So we balance with a 4 nighter. A lot of things are cheaper for the 4 nighters, like you mentioned towards the end. At the end of the day I look for deals based on a per night per person rate. If I can get a great deal at about $100/person/night for my family of 4 on a newer ship with a cococay stop, I’m happy!

    I just sailed on Navigator of the Seas and thought El Loco Fresh was just ok. The quesadillas were always a hit but the premade burritos were mid and the beans were lacking. I just booked a trip on quantum next and am excited for the larger variety of food choices and really hoping that dog house is better than this video made it seem. Some comments are giving me hope.

  • @cruisecrazy7066

  • @pamelahunyad2635

    Odd person out but we have no desire to go on longer than a 5 night cruise. Our first cruise was 4 nights on Empress to Cozumel and back. Then we did several years of 5 nights and then in April we did 4 nights on Freedom to Puerto Plata. We have to fly to the embarkation port because we live in Ohio but a flight to Florida is under 3 hours so it's not a big deal. We are like this and always have been with all our vacations, Even when we used to fly directly to a destination that was all inclusive. After five nights we are ready to come home.

    You will see many people on cruise ships that are in wheelchairs. Some are motorized. You will also see many people using walkers. For this incident with the woman screaming hitting the wall in her wheelchair and the drummer doing what he did I think he should’ve been. Don’t forget cruise ships are in people, please. They try very hard to make it pleasant. It’s not supposed to be like a frat house.

  • @briankeller9848

    Flying from the Midwest to any of the ports makes the shorter cruises not make sense for us. The cost per night just gets too high because the flights are a fixed cost.

  • @tduck828
    @tduck828 20 годин тому

    Worth it is highly dependent upon your situation. I'm in the Midwest and have to fly so 4 day is too short. I'd go nothing less than 7 to 10. Ive done 15 to 16 days but that's much too long to be gone. I don't buy internet so hard to be disconnected so long.

    @christinemarino5732 20 годин тому

    We prefer five nights and more. We have taken a few four nights, and they don't seem like a vacation to us. We have a four night on, Utopia, and that will probably be the last short cruise for us. A few seven nights are scheduled in 2025.

  • @5168agonz
    @5168agonz 20 годин тому

    3 days are definitely not worth it, if you have to fly to the port. I been on 4, 6, 7 and 8 night cruises. The four day was to quick and never done it again. I can't imagine a 3 day? By the time you get done unpacking, you will be ready to disembark 😂

    I love Liberty OTS. It's my favorite ship, and Bermuda is my favorite port so far. The 5 night is a perfect length, especially with the overnight in Bermuda, it allowed me to see more of the island, and move at my own pace.

  • @cowboib4680

    Aren't shorter cruises intended for first-time cruisers? Think that was a point you could have made in favor of the shorter cruises.

    • @RoyalCaribbeanBlog
      @RoyalCaribbeanBlog 21 годину тому

      Yes and no. I think short cruises are a mistake for first-time cruisers because there's just not enough time to get the full sense of what a cruise offers, but you're right a lot of first-time cruisers book it out of fear of the unknown of what a cruise is all about.

    Our work schedules make 3-5 night cruises the best option for us. I technically did a "7-night" cruise on Allure of the Seas by doing a 3-night cruise and then a 4-night cruise a couple of months later. Neither cruise had the same port of call. My sweet spot for a cruise is 5-nights. Eventually one day if work schedules align we will try a 7-night cruise.

  • @m.m.4645
    @m.m.4645 22 години тому

    We prefer at least 7 day cruises, any shorter ones we consider booze cruises we do not want to be on. Also the ports on those short ones, inclusive those "Private Islands" are not of interest for us. Also - we live far away from any port, we always have to fly or use the train. Für us, those short ones would unfer certain circumstances only make sense to full up the time between 2 long cruises- back 2 back e.g. (Hotels are expensive nowadays!)

    5 night minimum. Unless I lived in Florida, I can't fathom packing my bags, flying down to the port (a day in advance no less), hopping on the boat just to unpack less than 72 hours later. 5 night cruises have been the perfect length so far. Hoping that I'll be able to take longer ones if I can get a better paying job.

  • @johndittmer8488
    @johndittmer8488 День тому

    Matt:, my wife and I just made Emerald and we're only 24 points from making Diamond. So, we're considering doing 3 seven-night, plus an extra five-night cruise to Bermuda. We live in Virginia, so doing a bunch of short cruises isn't a good option until I retire. Basically, we do one cruise a year to fit our budget. However, I start collecting my military pension later this year, so can probably start doing an extra cruise here and there. That Bermuda cruise option seems good, so we have gotten tired of the Bahamas. So that seems to be a good option to achieve Diamond a year earlier than we would normally.

    Not a cruise, but on a family trip to Hawaii several years ago I went on the website to check in for our flight home on the last day but United messed up the flight reservation. Called the travel agent, talked to her for about 5 minutes, then SHE contacted United to fix it, allowing me to spend my last afternoon there on the beach with my family instead of on hold with United. This was also just days after Aloha Airlines and ATA Airlines, two of the largest operators between Hawaii and the mainland at the time, both shut down with no notice in the same week, so I doubt I would have gotten anywhere with a minimum wage callcenter employee anyway.
