Compare here Transatlantic Repositioning Cruises 2017-2018-2019 itineraries of one-way Cunard Transatlantic crossings, and also the segmented Trans-Atlantic crossings between South America and Europe, Transatlantic round-trip cruises from UK ports and North Atlantic cruises between New York and Europe/UK as dates, routes and prices per person.
Transatlantic cruise deals are usually offered as seasoned discounted specials when a decent number of passenger ships relocate (with one-way itineraries) for their next (Summer or Winter) season from one operational region to another.
Transatlantic Repositioning Cruises
Absolutely all Transatlantic cruises feature cheap travel deals on low-priced sailings with a longer than usual sea intensive itinerary. It means lots of sea days and few call ports.
When you choose your “best” from all departures as dates and ports, just follow the line-links from the table for the exact itinerary and suggestive prices.
At our line-pages we’ll show you also the lowest tickets prices to compare ships in general. But know that prices are indicative and subject to change (lowest rates per person, based on double occupancy).

Transatlantic cruise ships, Atlantic crossing routes
Transatlantic one-way repositioning cruise deals can be easily grouped in the following categories:
- Trans-Atlantic cruises between Europe and USA or South America – best availability on cruises Florida to Mediterranean (some visiting Azores, Canary Islands) and from Florida to UK (often with Bermuda), and the reverse from Europe (UK/Mediterranean) to Florida. Some really cheap deals are offered on cruises departing from Italy to South America (Brazil and Argentina) operated in late Fall and some times early Winter, and the reverse (in early Spring) from South America to Europe.
- North Atlantic cruises to Canada from Northern Europe in early Fall (often visiting Iceland and Greenland) when ships move to sail on Fall Foliage cruises in New England.
- there’s a limited (but still some) choice if you’re looking for cruise ships departing from UK to Caribbean or New York (Fall) and the reverse from Caribbean to UK (Spring).
- and the most expensive, but also in this category – Around The World cruise ships departing from Europe (UK mostly) with their first/last segments offering a Trans-Atlantic cruise crossing.

Know that all (yours included) Transatlantic cruises as deals are in the “very cheap cruise” category. Generally, Transatlantic crossings on cruise ships feature some of the most cheap travel prices as per day rates. The only inconvenience is that these offers are very limited as to the number of ships (major cruise lines with regular Transatlantic ship repositioning). Other cons are the limited number of departure dates, few departure ports choices, not to forget the limited number of ports of call. Last minute Transatlantic cruise deals offer best possible prices. Still, some bonus perks may change your mind. Among those are the free cabin upgrades, free onboard credit, special seaday activities. Sometimes, even unlimited beverage packages are included in the deals. As to the guaranteed availability and stateroom choices, early booking is highly recommended.
We wish you best of luck and super fun on your cheap Transatlantic crossings! One-way or round-trip, these are unique travel deals on the always pleasantly cheap Transatlantic cruise ships – enjoy them!
