Fort Lauderdale Departures

Pack your bags — and don’t forget to bring your bathing suit — when you choose from cruises out of Fort Lauderdale. If you play your cards right, you can give yourself an extra day or two of lounging on a Florida beach before you head off on your main trip. Once aboard, all of these vessels come with reputations for exceptional service, food options, and entertainment galore.

Some of the longer cruises available last as long as 50, 80 and 111 nights. The number of places you’ll visit and things you’ll be able to experience on these immaculately curated voyages cannot be underestimated. Longer cruises, like the 80-night World Cruise aboard Holland America Line’s MS Prinsendam, often depart early in the year on more intimate ships with fewer passengers and make for the perfect way to kick off a retirement.

Alternately, a quick getaway can be easily found for those tight on time and money. You can find cruises from Fort Lauderdale to destinations like the Bahamas and Cuba for 2, 3, or 4 nights — ideal for a weekend getaway. Some of the ships offering these trips include Royal Caribbean's massive Independence of the Seas and Princess Cruises’ Crown Princess. Both offer upscale dining, casual eats, bars and more with comfortable and spacious rooms that definitely won’t give you cabin fever.

If you want to go on a 2-night sabbatical, a week-long Caribbean getaway, or 111-night cruise around the globe, you can find it in Fort Lauderdale. Use Dunhill Travel Deals now and choose your next adventure today.
