5 Fun And Affordable Cruises Out Of Boston This Year
When you think of hopping on a cruise ship for a week, you typically envision flying out of the Northeast and heading down south first. Well, if you are willing to wait a few more months, there are some great cruises leaving right out of Boston again this year.
The seaport area of the city has become a well-established hot spot over the past ten years. It has restaurants, night clubs, and high-rise apartments. You can also walk across the street and sail away for a week.
If you haven’t booked a cruise excursion through an all-inclusive program that bundles in the flight, airfare can easily be a good chunk of the vacation cost. Typically you look for a deal and separately pay for roundtrip flights to Florida. It’s then on you to get from the airport to the dock.
Given the costs, it has become increasingly popular to board a cruise out of New York City as well. These trips leave more frequently throughout the year, including in the winter.
However, Cruise Critic has recently outlined a few great, and cost-effective options for you to enjoy a cruise right out of Boston.
