I always look at home port cruises (NY) before anything else just to avoid flying. I wish there was a bigger selection of itineraries but paying an extra $1,400+ for all the flights + 1-2 nights in a hotel + food + ubers from airport to hotel to port to airport doesn't make sense for me at this point. It easily adds another $2,000 to the vacation budget. I'd rather go on another cruise instead.. For those that don't have sailings close to home I see how this would be prohibitive.
