I recently worked with a client who was comparing itineraries and inclusions on two cruise lines - Seabourn and Oceania. We compared two similar sailings in the Mediterranean during September of 2015 to try to determine which is the better value: The Seabourn Soujourn September 19th sailing from Monte Carlo to Rome and the Oceania Marina September 14th sailing from Barcelona to Rome.

If you're like me, a world cruise sounds like the ultimate travel adventure. You can see the world in 90 to 180 days in the comfort of a cruise ship with all of the amenities you need. That being said, a world cruise is not for everyone. Besides having time to get away for a long period, and the requisite budget, you need to make sure your personality is suited to a long sea voyage. A world cruise can cost from about $20,000 per person to about $180,000 per person depending on the cruise line, the length of the itinerary, and the cabin type you select.

Regent Seven Seas Cruises is widely touted as "the best value in luxury cruising" because of all of the amenities that are included in it's cruise fares. So, even though it may cost more than other cruise lines, when you factor in everything that is included, it can be a great value. 

In this blog post, I will dig into the terms and conditions of each of these offerings so that you know exactly what you are getting when you book a Regent cruise.

Regent Seven Seas Cruises advertises "Free Air" with all of their voyages, and this often causes a lot of confusion. If you are planning on cruising with Regent, you probably have questions about booking air for your Regent cruise.

Generally, we recommend that you book air separately whenever possible. This gives you the ultimate choice of your air schedule, travel dates and preferred airline. Roux Luxury Travel is able to assist you with these arrangements.

However, Regent's air fares are often a great value, and there are times when their air deals are too good to pass up.  If you do opt to take the Regent Seven Seas Cruises Air, here is some information that you need to know.
