About Me

Brugge via canal cruise-a stop on a Transatlantic
Brugge via canal cruise-a stop on a Transatlantic

A Transatlantic cruise crosses the Atlantic Ocean, typically between Europe and North America. These cruises usually last 7 to 14 days, with a mix of days at sea and occasional port stops in places like the Azores or Bermuda.

The journey focuses on relaxation and leisure, with activities such as fine dining, shows, and enrichment lectures. Major lines like Cunard, Holland America, and Royal Caribbean offer these cruises. The best times to go are spring and fall, with pleasant weather for sailing.

A transatlantic cruise is perfect for those who enjoy long, scenic voyages and a slower pace of travel. I’ve enjoyed these twice myself, and have booked many clients on them as well.

Our cruise experience
Reviewed By Seattle Cruiser - Seattle, WA | Traveled to Greece | Europe
Jill was recommended to me by my sister in law who is a very active cruiser. My husband and I have taken a few cruises but not recently on a big boat and only a river boat in Europe. We took our grown children who had never cruised before. This made our cruise more complicated and Jill was very helpful with the administrative details on our cruise. I appreciated that she helped as questions came up that were not easy to answer based on the internet information. She was very responsive when I emailed her and contacted the cruise lines several times when needed. No questions or concerns were too small to address. I would recommend her to my friends and family and would use her in the future.

The best experience ever!!
Reviewed By CobbsCrib - Lincoln, CA | Traveled to Alaska | USA
Being that our family doesn't travel often, we were nervous about planning our trip to Alaska. We found Jill through a local Facebook page where several local families recommended her. We couldn't have been happier with our experience! She listened to what we were hoping to do and gave us several options that checked everything off of our list. She was so easy to work with and handled everything, step by step, with complete competence. She is kind and caring and truly wants to make your adventure a trip of a lifetime. Even after having to cancel half of our trip and start over from scratch, she was never less than gracious, understanding, amazingly helpful. We are very thankful to have found Jill Johns to be our travel agent. We would highly recommend her to everyone! You won't be sorry. And we can't wait to have her help us again on our next trip.
I would recommend this agent to my family and friends.

Transatlantic Crossing

I've had the pleasure of taking two unforgettable Transatlantic cruises, one from Ft. Lauderdale to Southampton and the other from Ft. Lauderdale to Copenhagen. These voyages typically last around 14 days, offering a unique and relaxing way to cross the Atlantic. What sets a Transatlantic cruise apart from a regular 14-day itinerary (like...
