Temptation Cruise 2023 – Theme Parties

The theme parties onboard are curated as a great method to help the average shy couple step into expressing their inner desires. If you can, let go and let the complete fantasy of the night immerse you and your companion. We’ve discovered that the guests who take the time to dress in theme have a more social night which could lead to more fun (whatever that may entail).

Of course, how you dress to fit the theme is completely up to you. You could go all-out and really stand out, or simply accent your nightly outfit with something related to the theme.

Not in the mood, or not feeling up to it? That’s also not a problem. This cruise is all about you and your partner doing your thing and enjoying yourselves the way you choose.

Temptation Cruise 2023 – Nightly Themes

Theme nights are designed to let the “fun” out! Customers use these themes to create an alternate persona of themselves to really cut loose and have a blast! They slip into the feeling of being someone or something else for the night. Most of our guests say that dressing in theme is half the fun, and definitely helps break the ice, leading to more connections made with new friends.

How much “theme” is necessary? That part is 100% up to you!

Guests have ranged from an entire head-to-toe ensemble in some amazing outfits down to reflecting the night’s theme with a piece or accessory on their outfit.

Not necessarily into dressing up? That’s not a concern either. This trip is all about doing what says “I’m having a wonderful time.” with you and your partner.

Travel Insurance

Yikes, travel insurance is not a fun topic but a lot of you have asked…
This is about what happens if you are paid, packed and ready to go… and there is a problem.

The biggest 2 reasons people take insurance are:

• Trip Cancellation
• Medical Expenses or Medical Evacuation

Full Ship charters are better than regular cruises in many ways, however the penalties and potential for a loss if you have to cancel is higher. Shortly after final payment most full ship charter cruises become non-refundable. That means if you have to cancel your trip not only do you have that disappointment of a cancelled vacation, but I have to tell you you don’t get your money back.

Our most popular insurance is ‘World Wide Trip Protector’ and provides full coverage when purchased up to 21 days after your vacation purchase.

The best value just to make sure you have coverage is ‘Trip Protector Lite Expanded.’

Please consider purchasing Travel Insurance

Since everyone pretty much likes me right now and I’d like it to stay that way, please consider purchasing travel insurance. Or at least don’t say I didn’t warn you if there is a problem.

Other coverages that take the worry out of travel:

• Trip Interruption-Return air only
• Trip Delay & Missed Connection coverage
• Baggage Loss or Delay
• Cancel for Work Reasons Options available on select policies

We strongly recommend purchasing travel insurance for your upcoming cruise. There are hundreds of circumstances that could cause you to cancel your trip, return home early or force you to seek emergency medical treatment while traveling. Travel insurance offers coverage for unforeseen problems such as, an unexpected financial change or scheduling conflict, a cancelled flight or a serious illness. You even have the option where you can cancel for any reason. We recommend Travel Insured – Get a quote and buy insurance
