Why pay $100+ a night when you could sail the same ship, same cabin, for as little as $35 a night? That's a repositioning cruise — the cheapest, calmest cruise in 2026, and it may be the best-kept secret for those of us over 60. In this video I share the 10 things nobody tells you before you book one: how they cure jet lag (and why westbound is gentler), why they're the peaceful "anti-cruise cruise" where the ship is the destination, the one-way flight cost to factor in, why your cabin matters far more (plus the daylight-alarm and bow-camera tricks for inside cabins), the unpredictable weather, thinner entertainment but richer lectures, packing in layers + laundry, and — most important of all — why proper travel insurance with medical evacuation and REPATRIATION is non-negotiable, because Medicare doesn't work abroad. A gentle, honest note: fares, flights, weather, and ship amenities vary — confirm details with the cruise line and read any insurance policy carefully. Medicare generally does not cover you outside the U.S.; this channel is general travel information, not medical, insurance, or financial advice.
