Small Ship Cruising — What You Should Know Before Your Book | A Live Discussion
Small ship cruising is having a moment — and for good reason. But it's not just about fewer passengers and a smaller footprint. When you step aboard a smaller ship, almost everything changes. The staterooms, the vibe, the service, the food, the destinations, the experience from the moment you board to the moment you walk off the gangway — it's a fundamentally different way to cruise. Rebecca and I have sailed some incredible smaller ship cruise lines and we are bringing everything we know to Sunday morning's conversation. Here's what we'll be getting into: 🛳️ Small Ship vs. Large Ship — What Actually Changes It's not just the size — here's what really shifts when you go small - The staterooms — more space, more luxury, more personality - The vibe onboard — intimate, unhurried and genuinely different - The service — fewer guests means more attention, and you feel it - The food — why smaller ships often punch well above their weight at the table 🌍 The Destinations Small Ships Can Reach - Ports the big ships simply can't dock at — and why that matters - Overnight stays and extended time in port — experiencing places by day AND night. The hidden gems that only small ship cruisers get to discover 🔍 What to Expect When You Book - How small ship cruise lines differ from each other — they are NOT all the same - Similarities and differences across the small ship landscape - What's typically included — and what surprises first-time small ship cruisers - Is small ship cruising right for YOU?
