Viaggi transatlantici in nave cargo con Cargoholidays
Transatlantic cargo ship travel with Cargoholidays. At its simplest, a freighter cruise is just that: a journey on a ship the primary purpose of which is to transport cargo. Passengers can sail on working vessels that can accommodate only up to a dozen people (the maximum allowed without having an onboard physician), and are expected to share basic facilities with the officers and crew for Transatlantic cargo ship travel. Alternatively they can choose to cruise on a combi-liner (also known as a passenger freighter or deluxe freighter), which is designed to carry hundreds of passengers in addition to cargo. (These types of ships were commonly used for long-haul travel until the 1970s, when the advent of containerization combined with cheaper airfares made them all but obsolete in Transatlantic cargo ship.) Today the two major freighter cruises, Aranui 5 and RMS St. Helena, offer cruise ship-like amenities such as upgraded cabins, a swimming pool, bar and restaurant, plus onboard activities and guided about Transatlantic cargo or independent shore excursions. But sailing on even the most comfortable freighter is a far cry from the modern cruising experience most people are familiar with, with few of the bells and whistles passengers have come to expect about Transatlantic cargo ship travel. There are no nightly shows or children’s programming, for example, and dining options are limited so veteran cruisers should adjust their expectations accordingly for Transatlantic cargo ship travel with Cargoholidays Transatlantic.
A tour of ports tells you what’s going on. From Southampton, for example, there are four weekly sailings, two each to the Far East and the Mediterranean, from Long Beach, there is a sailing nearly every week to the Far East, from Le Havre a weekly sailing to Martinique and Guadeloupe and so on. In all, there are now about seven or eight regularly-scheduled weekly services accepting passengers. In addition, there are frequent sailings to Australia and New Zealand, South America, the Far East and West and South Africa. Freighter travel is also possible in some smaller and/or third world countries. Freighter travel is virtually the only way to travel across in Transatlantic cargo the Caspian Sea for Transatlantic cargo ship and is a very common way to travel across the Black Sea. In these regions, ships may have to wait for days to be given access to the final port, facilities are bad, you likely have to bring your own food, and service is sporadic and unreliable (you will have to check every morning for departing ships). Best Time for Freighter Cruises The majority of freighter cruise lines operate year-round, so you can sail almost any time you please. Exactly when you travel depends on your budget (obviously fares are pricier during the destination’s tourist season), weather preferences and tolerance for crowds. For example, the weather in French Polynesia, where Aranui 5 sails, is least humid in July and August, but prices are also higher and available cabins are fewer since there’s a large local festival in July, and August is when most French take their summer vacation.
