A ship from ‘Life at Sea Cruises’ would sail the world’s oceans for three years from November 1.
Because the company could not find a suitable ship, the mega voyage had to be suddenly canceled – a shock to all passengers who had already booked cabins. Many of them now have nothing left. Some have even sold their apartment or house to finance their dream.
There has never been anything like this cruise. In these three years, seven continents, 140 countries and more than 380 destinations would have been visited. Blick presents the route the ship would have taken.
Numerous passengers have already traveled to Turkey
The mega cruise is said to have left in Turkey. According to American media, numerous passengers have already traveled to Istanbul in the firm belief that they will soon board the ship. Suddenly they heard about the cancellation.
From Istanbul the ship would have sailed to Barcelona before starting the nine-day journey across the Atlantic Ocean to the Bahamas. The steamer is said to have then traveled further east, visiting the Caribbean islands of Puerto Rico and Trinidad and Tobago.
After Guyana and Suriname, the ship would have sailed along the east coast of South America, then stopped at the exotic Falkland Islands in the South Atlantic Ocean and Antarctica before returning via the west coast of South America to the Caribbean Islands and Central -America. .
The mega steamer is said to have stopped in the middle of the Pacific Ocean
After several ports in Mexico, the cruise ship would have made a short stop on the American west coast with San Diego and Los Angeles. The passengers were then allowed to spend ten days on the paradise islands of Hawaii.
After a short detour in San Francisco, the ship would have headed for Canada and ultimately Alaska. From there, the megaship would have left for Asia, where it would first have visited various ports in Japan.
After Taiwan, South Korea and more than a dozen destinations in China and the Philippines, the steamer would also have docked at some small islands in the middle of the Pacific Ocean. For example in Palau, Guam or Micronesia.
To name just a few stops, the ship would have stopped in the island paradise of Fiji and Papua New Guinea before heading to dozens of destinations in Australia and New Zealand. Finally, the mega steamer is said to have traveled back to Southeast Asia before heading to India, Sri Lanka and the Maldives. At that time, the passengers would have been on the road for more than two years.
Company wants to refund money
The cruise would have continued with numerous destinations in Africa. Highlights included Mauritius, Madagascar and Cape Verde. From West Africa the ship would finally have made its way to the Mediterranean Sea with other dream destinations such as Sardinia, Corsica and Tenerife.
Before culminating in the Greek islands, the passengers would have headed north to destinations such as Iceland, the Netherlands, Denmark and Sweden.
One thing is clear: the passengers on the mega cruise would have seen almost every corner of the world. The fact that the dream is now shattered is still causing a stir among those who had already signed up.
According to CNN, the company wants to refund the money to the affected passengers.
