About Us
Hello, and welcome to 360Cruising! We’re Kevin and Katrina, a couple of travel enthusiasts hailing from the charming coastal town of Arbroath in Scotland. Known for its stunning cliffside views and famous smoked fish, Arbroath has always been our cozy home base. However, our hearts have long been set on exploring the wider world beyond its shores. What better way to see the world than from the deck of a cruise ship? The Journey Begins Our love for travel started long before we discovered cruising. Over the years, we’ve had the privilege of visiting over 100 countries, immersing ourselves in different cultures, and making memories that will last a lifetime. From the bustling markets of Marrakech to the serene fjords of Norway, each adventure fuelled our desire to keep exploring. But it wasn’t until we took our first cruise that we truly found our favourite way to travel. Why Cruising? For us, cruising isn’t just about getting from point A to point B—it’s about the entire experience. There’s something uniquely thrilling about waking up in a new destination each morning without the hassle of constant packing and unpacking. Plus, the variety of activities, entertainment, and dining options on board makes every day feel like a new adventure. And let’s not forget the incredible people we’ve met along the way, from fellow passengers to the wonderful crew members who make every voyage special. Our Cruise Line of Choice When it comes to cruise lines, we’ve tried a few, but Royal Caribbean has become our go-to. We’re drawn to their innovative ships, diverse itineraries, and top-notch service. Whether it’s a short getaway to the Mediterranean or a transatlantic journey, Royal Caribbean consistently delivers an experience that keeps us coming back. We’ve sailed on everything from the smaller Vision-class ships to the massive Oasis-class, and each has offered something unique. Why We Started 360Cruising After years of cruising and sharing stories with friends and family, we realized that there’s a lot of interest in this way of travel—but also a lot of questions. That’s how 360Cruising was born. We wanted to create a space where we could share our experiences, offer honest advice, and provide practical tips for anyone looking to embark on their own cruising adventures. Whether you’re a first-time cruiser or a seasoned traveller, our goal is to make cruising more accessible and enjoyable for everyone.

Quick question for you all:
Have you ever considered a repositioning cruise? I have been going on and on about this 35-night sailing for weeks now. But I am curious, is this something you'd actually do? Or does it feel too long, too complicated, too far out of reach? What's stopping you? Is it the time off work? The cost? Not knowing what to expect? Worried you'd get bored? Something else? No wrong answers. Genuinely want to know and see if I can help!😊🛳️
Quick question for you all:
My unpopular opinion reel blew up last week🚀
In my reel, I taked about why I think older cruise ships are better than the newer cruise ships.. So let me explain why I actually believe older cruise ships are better. 1️⃣ They're quieter. No queuing for everything. No madness at the buffet. You can actually get a sunlounger. After weeks on Voyager, I've never once fought for a seat or waited in a massive line. That changes how the whole cruise feels. 2️⃣ They're not overwhelming. You can learn the layout in a day. Get from your cabin to anywhere on the ship in minutes. No trying to find your way through fifteen decks of attractions. It actually feels like a cruise ship, that traditional vibe that got most of us into cruising in the first place. 3️⃣ They're cheaper with better itineraries. New ships often do 3-4 night runs to private islands or the same Caribbean stops everyone's done ten times. Older ships? Longer sailings. More interesting ports. Repositioning cruises. And for less money. 4️⃣ The staff actually know you. Fewer passengers means the crew remember your name, your drink, your table. You see the same faces. You have actual conversations. After a few weeks on board, it feels like a community! I'm not saying new ships are bad. They're impressive, and of course I would take any cruise ship rather than being on land!

Sailing on Voyager class soon?🛳️
These tips work for all Voyager-class ships (Voyager, Explorer, Adventure, Navigator, Mariner), here's what you actually need to know: Walk Deck 4 outside (Promenade Deck). You can walk the entire ship, barely see anyone, and even go out onto the helipad. Shockingly quiet!🚁 The solaruim bar does smoothies, juices and protien shakes! It is quietly hidden but we love a nice fruit smoothie in the morning to start the day! 🥝 Order multiple mains in the dining room. Can't decide between two dishes? Order both. Only want starters? Have three. Most people don't realise this until halfway through!🍽️ Hidden quiet spots: Sports court sunloungers at the very back (best views, zero crowds). High Notes bar during the day (free tea/coffee/snacks, ocean views). Going to the buffet? Hit the Windjammer after 8pm in the evening or between 7-9am for breakfast. Anytime after 9am... it is busy! And lunchtime, I have not seemed to have cracked a quiet time, it is always busy😆 Bring adapters. Not many sockets in cabins, and none beside the bed unfortunately! Voyager's not flashy. But once you know how she works, she's brilliant. Anyone else sailing Voyager or a Voyager class soon?
