For those eager to escape U.S. politics after the 2024 election results, Villa Vie Residences is offering a “Skip Forward” cruise package, providing a four-year escape aboard a luxury ship. Departing with a mission to let passengers avoid the political landscape at home, the cruise will visit 140 countries across all seven continents. Villa Vie Residences aims to cater to those seeking a full retreat, including luxury amenities like high-speed internet, spa facilities, fitness programs, and even the option for friends or family to join for a daily fee.
If four years feels too long, the company also offers a “Mid-Term Selection” option, a two-year cruise aligned with the U.S. midterm elections. One-year and three-year journeys are also available. Pricing starts at $255,999 for a single-occupancy room on the four-year trip, while a two-year journey begins at $150,399. Shorter trips, like the one-year package, start at $79,999.
The company highlights the flexibility and allure of this lifestyle, with Villa Vie Residences’ spokesperson describing the trip as a way to “escape traffic jams, politics, and the monotony of city life.” Stops include popular cities such as Buenos Aires, Sydney, and Tokyo, allowing passengers to explore cultural hotspots across the globe.
Villa Vie’s initiative has garnered attention as a unique way to step away from the current U.S. political climate, offering an enticing opportunity for those considering a literal journey around the world.
