riddle Posted August 18, 2018 #1 Share Posted August 18, 2018 My husband and I want to do a Panama Canal cruise. I admit I find it difficult to see which cruises do a full transit and which only turn around and go back. Can those in the know enlighten me please?

Full transit starts in either Florida or California and ends on the opposite coast, while a turn around usually starts and ends in the same port.

BillB48 Posted August 18, 2018 #3 Share Posted August 18, 2018 In addition to the above full transits are generally 14 days (or longer) while partial transits are listed as round trip out Florida at 10/11 days. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare www3traveler Posted August 18, 2018 #5 Share Posted August 18, 2018 Some full Panama Canal cruises are what are called Re-Positioning cruises which happens in the Spring and Fall of each year. Example: The Bliss has spend the Summer months in Alaska. This November She will sail from Los Angeles to Miami and do Caribbean cruises over the Winter. Then in early Spring, She will go back through The Canal for another Summer Season in Alaska sailing out of Seattle, Washington. Sometimes the Re-Positioning are really good deals and other times not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
