ALBAWABA- Miray Cruises, a renowned cruise company, is set to embark on an unprecedented maritime adventure with the launch of a 3-year cruise expedition named "Life at Sea." This extraordinary journey is scheduled to commence in November.
The visionary behind this ambitious venture is Kendra Holmes, the CEO of Miray Cruises. She revealed that the inspiration for this remarkable cruise concept was born from the overwhelming interest expressed by potential customers who were enthralled by the idea of a prolonged sea voyage.
What sets "Life at Sea" apart is its innovative approach to cruise travel. While participants are required to commit to the full 3-year experience, they are granted the flexibility to commence their journey at any juncture along the cruise route.
This unique feature transforms the expedition into a renewable 3-year maritime adventure, breaking away from the traditional fixed itineraries.
The inaugural year of this extraordinary sea journey will encompass seven potential departure points, with the voyage setting sail from Istanbul on November 1st.
Kendra Holmes indicated that "Life at Sea" is intended to continue indefinitely, with key destinations like Easter Island, Dubai, and India scheduled to be incorporated into the itinerary during the fourth year, owing to logistical considerations.
Despite the grandeur of the voyage, Miray Cruises is making it accessible to a wide range of individuals. Holmes stated, "It costs $3,500 to $4,000 per month to see the world.
We can offer this deal to an average-income individual or someone recently retired from a medium-income job." Current prices start at $38,513 per year per person and encompass comprehensive onboard healthcare.
For those unable to join the journey from Istanbul, alternative departure points are available. Passengers can board the cruise from Barcelona on November 6th, the Bahamas a week later, or Rio de Janeiro on December 20th, allowing them to celebrate Christmas onboard in style.
Moreover, "Life at Sea" is set to include three additional stops in the middle and North America in the first half of 2024, adding even more diversity and adventure to the itinerary.
The vessel chosen for this remarkable expedition, the "MV Lara," is capable of accommodating 1,400 passengers. Holmes noted that the cruise has garnered substantial interest, with current occupancy rates in November exceeding 50% of full capacity.
