Many professionals have ditched the office to work remotely, and everyone’s experience is completely different. In-person meetings are a thing of the past, and most people have moved to a different city or country for a better quality of life. The pandemic, among other things, taught people to spend more time doing the things that make them happy. For many, traveling the world is that thing. Miray Cruises has created the Life at Sea Cruise experience, which provides cruise enthusiasts with an opportunity to experience the world and spend a year living on a ship.

What is Life At Sea Cruises?

The Life At Sea Cruises concept was developed by Miray Cruises. With over 27 years in the business, the company created tons of on-the-water experiences.

Since 1996 they’ve operated their cruise vessel, MV Gemini, around the Aegean Sea. The Amor, which is another ship, provides dinner and entertainment. The Astoria Grand is another ship that belongs to the company, and it has some of the best stays of any cruise ship on the market.

The company takes pride in recruiting and developing the best professionals in the hospitality industry. The organization has a deep passion for traveling the world, which is reflected in the experiences they provide.

Spend $30,000 And Live On A Cruise Ship for a Year?

The Life At Sea packages start at $30,000 per person for one year at sea. During the year, each passenger will visit 375 ports in 135 countries across seven continents. Each passenger will have to sign a three-year contract, similar to a lease.

Balcony suites are double the size of the lower package cabins and are valued at close to $110,000 per person. Single travelers can get a 15% discount on the double occupancy rate with a downpayment of $45,000.

A year is a long time to be at sea, so each passenger is able to split up their cruise stays with another person or family through the company’s matchmaking process. If you are feeling homesick after a few months, this service allows you to schedule for another person to take your place at one of the upcoming stops.
