Yeah.

So it really depends on how long you're going to be there.

What's interesting about the ultra luxury trips is they never start and end in the same place.

So you have to think about travel accommodations from the start position to the end position.

That's weird.

For example, Seabourn, eight day trip in Japan, and then it ends in Hong Kong.

huh yeah you have to fly back you have to fly to japan and then you might not leave the same day so then you gotta find accommodations and then you have to find a flight from hong kong back to wherever you live it's just it's kind of weird but for that it's about it depends on the room three thousand five hundred to ten thousand dollars a person for an eight-day trip

The Ritz-Carlton is even worse, starting at $11,000 to $12,000 a person for a similar trip.

And then a small step down from that would be luxury and small yacht cruises.

Oceana, Viking Ocean, Windstar.

Again, much smaller ships in general, a huge focus still on the food.

Lots of focus on fine dining.

These are the types of boats that are going to be like, we have a Michelin star chef on board.

A lot of companies in this tier are going to try to market the experience as almost like being on your own private yacht.

it's very private some of these cruise liners it's a one-to-one staff ratio staff to passenger ratio then you have the next step down premium cruise liners princess holland america celebrity cruises virgin voyages which please don't book virgin voyages unless okay so no you can but you should know that uh from my extensive reddit researching that i've done as someone who has never been on a cruise virgin voyages has become swingers paradise it's an adults only cruise line

Yeah.

So I'm just saying don't book it until you kind of know what's going on.

Even if you're not into it, I think it could be fun.

I'm just saying you should be aware before you get on the boat.

And then you just see like a bunch of upside down pineapples everywhere, which I believe is the symbol for swinging.
