A transatlantic cruise restores the true meaning of a crossing: watching Europe recede, feeling the Atlantic fill the horizon, following the ship's progress on the map and spending several days in which the horizon, the sea and the unhurried passage of time become the heart of the journey.
Here, the ship is not merely transportation; it becomes your main living space, with restaurants, lounges, a theater, pools, a spa and promenade decks, along with the rituals unique to great crossings: sea days, gradual time-zone changes, navigation updates, lectures, gala evenings, grand dinners and long hours watching the ocean pass. Ultimately, the destination is as much what awaits on the other side of the Atlantic as the singular experience of truly crossing an ocean.

Top Cunard experiences: the transatlantic crossing in its most legendary form
Top MSC experiences: a grand-scale, modern and lively transatlantic crossing
Top Costa experiences: the Atlantic, Italian-style—friendly and sunny
Top RCCL experiences: a crossing combining entertainment, shows and relaxation
A transatlantic crossing is unlike a conventional cruise with frequent port calls. Here, the sea takes center stage. Sea days are not downtime: they convey the true distance between Europe and the Americas. You watch the light change, follow the map, feel the wind and swell, look toward the horizon and gradually pass from one time zone to another.
The great luxury of an Atlantic crossing is time: time to read, walk on deck, enjoy the spa, attend a lecture, learn a dance, linger over a meal or do nothing without guilt. The journey is less about moving from port to port and more about a continuous, soothing and deeply immersive sailing experience.
On a transatlantic cruise, the ship matters as much as the route. Restaurants, shows, the library, promenade decks, pools, lounges, the casino, sports, themed evenings and activities become the heart of the journey. That is why choosing the cruise line is essential: you are not simply choosing departure and arrival ports, but the onboard atmosphere you will experience for several days.
A transatlantic cruise often combines two worlds: a few days in Europe before embarkation, followed by New York, the Caribbean, Brazil or Argentina on arrival. Instead of flying between continents, the passage becomes a defining part of the journey. It is ideal for travelers who enjoy itineraries with a true sense of progression, a story and a purpose.
Transatlantic cruises offer a unique adventure: crossing the Atlantic while enjoying the comfort of a modern ship. Between delicious meals, varied entertainment, and captivating stops, each day onboard promises new and enriching experiences.
A transatlantic cruise connects the Americas, whether North America, the Caribbean, or South America, with the European continent or vice versa. These iconic sea cruises are notable for having several days of sailing, giving passengers the opportunity to fully enjoy the wide range of activities offered onboard the ship. Transatlantic cruises often include cultural and historical stops in the Atlantic Ocean, allowing travelers to discover fascinating and enriching destinations.
In the Americas, you can find many transatlantic cruises departing from New York, as well as cruises departing from Fort Lauderdale or Miami in Florida.
The main itineraries for a transatlantic cruise from Europe usually depart from the port of Southampton in the United Kingdom or from the Mediterranean, with cruises departing from Barcelona in Spain and Marseille in France. These cruises travel across the Atlantic Ocean to reach various ports in North America (New York, Fort Lauderdale, and Miami in Florida), the Caribbean and the Antilles, or even South America (Rio de Janeiro in Brazil, Buenos Aires in Argentina, or Montevideo in Uruguay).
The itineraries often include stops in the Macaronesia archipelagos, as well as cruise stops in the Canary Islands (Las Palmas de Gran Canaria or Santa Cruz de Tenerife), Madeira (Funchal), the Azores (Ponta Delgada), and sometimes Cape Verde (Praia).
During a transatlantic cruise, enjoy a variety of activities onboard the ship: shows, cooking workshops, fitness classes, relaxation in the spa, and a wide range of bars and restaurants to suit all tastes. The ships generally have pools, a casino, and also clubs for children and teenagers, an arcade game room, and a water park for all the family.
As part of the journey, you may enjoy stops at various Caribbean cruise destinations, including islands in the Antilles like Guadeloupe. Martinique, Saint Martin, and Barbados, as well as the Canary Islands and Madeira. Explore historic cities, admire diverse landscapes, snorkel, and relax on idyllic beaches.
If your transatlantic cruise heads to New York, you’ll have the chance to discover iconic landmarks before arrival, such as the Statue of Liberty, Central Park, the Empire State Building, and the Metropolitan Museum of Art.
Several companies offer transatlantic crossings, providing a variety of experiences and services tailored to different types of travelers.
Holland America Line and Princess Cruises offer premium cruise experiences, with attentive and personalized service, as well as fine dining under full-board plans. They offer numerous cruises departing from Miami and Fort Lauderdale bound for the Mediterranean (Barcelona in Spain, Rome-Civitavecchia in Italy) or Southampton in the United Kingdom (or vice versa). Some of these itineraries may include a fascinating stop in Bermuda.
Cunard emphasizes British luxury and elegance. Renowned for its iconic transatlantic itineraries, Cunard offers cruises departing from Southampton bound for New York, aboard comfortable ships that combine historical legacy with modern design.
Costa Cruises and MSC Cruises are ideal for families. MSC and Costa ships offer many onboard attractions, such as water parks, cinemas, a variety of bars and restaurants (the main restaurants are included in the full-board plan, while specialty restaurants are available for an additional cost), as well as clubs for children and teenagers. With MSC, children under 18 travel free (excluding port taxes) when sharing a cabin with two adults, while at Costa, this offer is valid for children under 12.
MSC and Costa’s transatlantic cruises primarily depart from the Mediterranean (Barcelona and Marseille) bound for the Antilles (Pointe-à-Pitre in Guadeloupe and Fort-de-France in Martinique) or South America (particularly Brazil), with stops in Madeira, the Canary Islands, or the Azores. With MSC Cruises, you can stay in a suite at the exclusive MSC Yacht Club complex. MSC Yacht Club cruises offer a wide range of benefits, including access to private areas such as an exclusive restaurant, butler service, and free access to the thermal area of the MSC Aurea Spa.
Transatlantic cruises are available year-round, and the choice of departure period depends on your destination. For itineraries to Europe, departing in spring or summer (March to September) is ideal for enjoying warm and mild weather upon arrival. For cruises from Europe to New York, summer (June to September) is perfect for enjoying long and pleasant days, ideal for exploring. For itineraries to the Caribbean and South America, departing in fall or winter (October to February) is ideal for enjoying warm and sunny weather while escaping Europe’s colder temperatures.
In North America, the main departure ports are New York, Fort Lauderdale, and Miami in Florida. The main ports for a transatlantic cruise departing from Europe are Southampton in the United Kingdom and Barcelona in Spain. Cruises departing from Marseille in France are also available.
The duration of a transatlantic crossing varies greatly depending on the itineraries, with an average of about fifteen days. Shorter itineraries, such as those connecting New York with Southampton without stops, can last between 7 and 9 days, while longer itineraries, including several stops in the Caribbean or South America, can last up to 25 days.
Prices for transatlantic cruises vary primarily depending on the company, duration, travel dates, and cabin type. Rates (excluding flights) start at $500 USD for cruises with Costa Cruises. Staying in a luxury suite at the MSC Yacht Club can cost up to $5,000 USD, with benefits including butler service and 24-hour room service.
