This 180-day global cruise is at least $41,600 a person and sold out in one day — see what it will be like on board

• Oceania Cruises' "Around the World in 180 Days" 2023 sailing just sold out in one day.
• Bob Binder, Oceania Cruises' president and CEO, attributes its quick sale time to "pent-up demand."
• Prices range from $41,600 to $155,600 for the cruise that hits 33 countries.
• Visit the Business section of Insider for more stories .

On January 27, Oceania Cruises opened bookings for its 180-day long cruise set for 2023. The trip then sold out within a day.

The COVID-19 pandemic may have halted cruise sailings in the US , but that's not stopping people from booking future trips, even if the voyages are almost two years out. This includes people who have never sailed with Oceania before: 33% of the bookings were made by new guests instead of experienced Oceania travelers.

"Despite the challenges the world faces today , travelers are clearly bullish on the future and are embracing these new opportunities to travel the world and create lifelong memories," Bob Binder, president and CEO of Oceania Cruises, said in a statement.

The number of new guests on the 180-day cruise and the speed at which it sold out reflects "tremendous pent-up demand," Binder said in a statement on the news release.

And apparently, 180 days out at sea isn't enough for some of its guests.

According to the cruise line, 20% of its world cruise guests have decided to lengthen the voyage to 218 days.

The sold out trip will span from January 15, 2023 to July 13, 2023 ...

... and will start and end in San Francisco.

The "Around the World in 180 Days" cruise hits 96 ports in 33 countries …

… including Namibia, Argentina, the United Arab Emirates, Vietnam, and Thailand.

The trip also includes three days in Antarctica and 61 UNESCO World Heritage Sites.

These sites include the Great Wall of China, the Valongo Wharf Archaeological Site in Brazil, the Itsukushima Shinto Shrine in Japan …

… the volcanoes of Kamchatka in Russia, the Singapore Botanic Garden, and Glacier Bay National Park in the US.

In total, the cruise will cross 24 time zones across four continents.

Guests will be spending their 180 days at sea on Oceania's "Insignia" ship.

The Insignia includes four restaurants, eight bars, and 342 suites ...

... accommodating a total of 684 guests.

And what would be a global cruise without cuisine inspired by the worldwide destinations?

There's even plant-based options for the vegetarian and vegan cruisers.

Spending half of the year on a ship may seem like a lot, but the Insignia has a variety of options to keep you entertained while you're out at sea …

… including a spa, gym, art area, putting green, and casino.

There's even the obligatory cruise pool deck.

Prices for the 180-day journey started at $41,600 for a stay in the inside stateroom.

This cost then jumped up to $155,600 for the owner's suite.

These prices can go up even further for those looking to cruise over 180 days.

The inside stateroom sits at 160 square-feet, while the owner's suite spans almost 1,000 square-feet.

"The response to our epic 2023 around the world voyage clearly illustrates the enthusiasm that experienced travelers have for immersive and memorable travel experiences," Binder said in a statement.

This 180-day World Cruise Departs in 2024, Sailing to 5 Continents, 37 Countries, and 85 Ports

Viking just announced its 2024-2025 lineup of World Cruises.

Courtesy of Viking Cruises

The year may have just begun, but Viking is already looking to the future. 

On Thursday, the cruise line announced its 2024 to 2025 World Cruise itineraries, which will take guests (you guessed it) around the world. The longest cruise is the new Viking World Voyage I , departing on Dec. 19, 2024 from Fort Lauderdale, Florida. It will sail for 180 days visiting 85 ports of call across 37 countries on five continents.

“For 25 years, we have been committed to providing our guests with immersive and culturally enriching experiences while traveling the world in comfort,” Torstein Hagen, the chairman of Viking, shared in a statement provided to Travel + Leisure . “Our previous World Cruises sold out in a matter of weeks, and we continue to see strong demand from our guests for extended voyages. Our seamless World Cruises are the greatest of all adventures and allow guests to explore more of the world with us.”

On each world cruise, Viking will offer guests deep cultural enrichment programs, including onboard lectures and locally focused entertainment, all meant to inspire an even deeper appreciation for its ports of call. Viking noted in the press release announcing these cruises that this includes the Viking Resident Historian program, which “provides guests with a high-level historical and cultural education specific to their journey.”

For those who can’t make the entire 180-day trip, Viking is offering a shorter version of the world cruise on Viking Sky. The 163-day Viking World Voyage II departs Los Angeles on January 5, 2025, and visits 29 countries before returning to New York. Guests who board the 930-person Viking Sky in New York will sail Mexico, transit the Panama Canal, and explore South America. Passengers will then embark in Los Angeles, at which point Viking Sky will cross the Pacific, visiting both the Hawaiian Islands and French Polynesia along the way. It will then explore New Zealand and Australia and sail onward through Asia, the Middle East, the Mediterranean, and Northern Europe, before returning to New York. 

Alternatively, guests can hop on the 121-day voyage Viking World Journeys on the brand-new Viking Neptune, which departs Los Angeles on Jan. 9, 2023, and visit 23 countries before guests disembark in London four months later.

As for what to expect on board, identical ocean ships Neptune and Sky both feature Scandinavian design across their Veranda Staterooms that start from 270 square feet, all the way to the 14 Explorer Suites, which range from 757 to 1,163 square feet for those who want a little more space for their around-the-world journey. 

Those who want to book their trip ASAP will be rewarded, as now through March 31, 2023, Viking is offering exclusive savings, including free business-class airfare, ground transfers, visa service, and a top-shelf beverage package. And, all World Cruise guests will receive $2,000 per person in shore excursion credits, so they can get to know the world just a little bit better with every stop.

Here are the documents and costs to keep in mind when planning a cruise

As I made plans this summer to take a cruise, I worked my way through my pre-travel checklist. I booked my flights, researched ground transportation options and selected a hotel for the night before boarding.

But I had yet to tick one important box: renewing my expired passport .

I had not traveled internationally since the pandemic began and needed a deadline to motivate me, so shortly before my  sailing from the Netherlands to New York , I filled out the application, paid the fees, and did a quick photo shoot at my local Walgreens.

Passports are just one of the documents travelers may need when taking a cruise, which can add to the overall cost of a trip. Here's what travelers should have on hand and what costs they might encounter before and during their trip:

What documents will travelers need to board a cruise?

The U.S. State Department recommends cruise passengers sailing from America have a passport.

U.S. citizens booked on closed-loop cruises – those that start and end at the same U.S. port – can enter the country with a government-issued photo ID and birth certificate instead, but the State Department encourages having a passport "in case of an emergency, such as an unexpected medical air evacuation or the ship docking at an alternate port," according to its website . Cruise lines may also require it.

Denise Jewell, owner of Opulence Travel Agency, also recommends having a passport, even on closed-loop cruises, in case you don't make it back to the ship in time during a stop.

"It'll be much easier to deal with the locals if you have a passport as opposed to a birth certificate," Jewell said.

If travelers need to apply for or renew a passport, "the sooner you get started the better," said Danny Genung, CEO of travel agency Harr Travel. He suggested beginning that process as soon as you book your trip, even if it's a year in advance.

"This is one of the big pain points and stress points of travel if you wait too long," Genung said.

Even travelers who have procrastinated, though, may not be out of luck. I mailed my passport renewal application on Sept. 7 and paid about $208 in fees overall, including expedited service. I received my new passport on Oct. 3, about two weeks before my trip.

What costs will travelers encounter while taking a cruise?

Many costs associated with a cruise are included in the fare travelers pay when they book. "I think one of the things I would point out is, spending money on a cruise ship is a choice," said Genung, noting that he has been on many cruises and spent nothing additional except on gratuities. However, with mainstream cruise lines, there are generally some key expenses to keep in mind (on luxury lines, many of these costs are likely to be included in the fare).

►  Taxes, fees and port expenses : In addition to the fare, travelers must pay taxes, fees and port expenses, said Brigitte Feinberg, a travel adviser and independent affiliate of Avenue Two Travel. Those can vary based on the specifics of your trip.

► Gratuities: On mainstream lines such as Royal Caribbean International, Feinberg said, gratuities are automatically added to travelers' bills on a per person, per day basis. 

Those prices can vary. Royal Caribbean  charges $16 per guest each day staying in non-suite staterooms, and $18.50 for those in suites, while Carnival Cruise Line applies a $14.50 daily charge per passenger for non-suite rooms, and $16.50 for guests in suites, according to their websites.

Guests can prepay those gratuities, so they "don't have to worry about that bill at the end of the cruise," Feinberg said, or pay them as part of the final bill. Passengers can also adjust the gratuities up or down, though Feinberg does not recommend the latter.

She added that some guests also bring cash to tip crew members directly who "went above and beyond" during the trip.

► Some food and drinks:  While much of the food is included on mainstream lines, some restaurants and items may cost extra.

On my October Holland America Line cruise, I visited specialty restaurants with prices ranging from $19 to $49 per person, plus an 18% gratuity.

Lines such as Carnival and Norwegian Cruise Line also include basic drinks like iced tea and regular coffee while charging for others. Genung said, "in a lot of cases there's good value" in pre-purchasing specialty dining or beverage packages.

► Shore excursions:  On mainstream cruise lines, Feinberg said, excursions are not included either. "Yes, the room's only $300 for a week, but by the time you're all said and done you're going to be spending a lot more than that," she said.

She said excursions can run from $50 to hundreds of dollars per person.

Most cruise lines have promotional sales on excursions and other packages before the cruise, Genung said, which can offer "significant savings," particularly for families traveling together.

"I have two little kiddos myself, and it's a lot more expensive to travel than when it was just my wife and I," he said. "So, you know, when you multiply an unexpected cost times four, or five or six, it gets pretty exponential."

► Wi-Fi:  Many cruise lines charge extra for Wi-Fi, but the price may depend on your needs.

Norwegian Cruise Line, for instance, sells both basic and premium options for one, two, and four devices, starting at $25.50 per day if guests purchase online and about $30 per day if they purchase on board, according to its website . The line also sells a 250-minute option.

Genung noted that it is almost always cheaper to purchase the internet prior to boarding than it is after getting on the ship.

► Laundry:  Depending on the length of the sailing, travelers may run out of clean clothes as I did on my October transatlantic cruise.

Like many mainstream lines,Holland America offered laundry services with several options, to choose from. I picked the Laundry By the Bag package, which cost $30 for as many clothes as I could fit in a bag the line placed in my stateroom closet.

There was also an Unlimited Pressing package for $75 and an Unlimited Laundry option for $135, including pressing, both for the duration of the sailing, according to an info sheet in my stateroom.

Feinberg noted that some cruise lines also have laundry rooms where guests can wash and dry their own clothes, such as Carnival, which charges $3.50 for each washer load, and $3.50 per dryer load, according to its website .
