Cruise company announces 4 year 'skip forward' cruise for Americans looking to escape Trump presidency
UK Daily Mail ^ | 11/10/2024 | Alex Hammer

A company is offering a four-year-long cruise for customers looking to escape the upcoming Donald Trump presidency.

Villa Vie Residences, based in Florida, announced the new 'Skip Forward' excursions this past Thursday - hours after Trump's second stint in office was solidified with an electoral win.

Aside from spanning years, the journey will take ticketholders to all seven continents - with an Antarctic sail-by and an eight day trip down the Amazon River.

If four years seems a bit too long, the company also offers one-, two-, and three-year packages - distinguished by names like 'Escape from Reality' and 'Everywhere but Home'.

The two-year option is bitingly billed as the 'Mid-Term Selection' package - a reference to how, by then, the citizens who will be casting ballots for their states' governor, seats in the House, and the Senate. Tickets start at around $40,000 a year, with price fluctuations based on occupancy and length of voyage.

'A perfect Circumnavigation is different for every resident as we pick up new adventurers along the way in every port' said Mikael Petterson, Chief Executive Officer of Villa Vie.

'With over 425 ports across 140 countries, each circumnavigation presents an unprecedented opportunity to discover the world from their floating home with ever-changing backyards,' the company added in an accompanying press release.

Residents setting out on the all-inclusive voyage will also have the ability to start their journey at any port pegged as a stop on the lengthy adventure, organizers stated - adding how the price of your ticket also includes food and drinks.

A fitness center and spa also awaits those willing to partake - though expect to pay a premium for such a journey, whether it be one of four full years.

A floating insane asylum.

The 10th Circle of Hell (for me anyway, GOD forbid!) would be stuck on a freaking CRUISE SHIP with three thousand bitter neo-marxists for four years. Probably eighty percent of them will be Arlene Battishill lookalikes!

can you imagine a boat full of liberals.

Can you imagine a boat full of Karens (or Arlenes)?

That sounds like bad company for traveling companions.
“Suddenly” going bankrupt would legally protect such a company from many lawsuits. There industry reputation would be in tatters, but, Oh Well! Cruise names can always be changed, after you find the next group of investors ready to give it a go.

I hope they don’t bypass the Gulf of Aden. A Somali welcome is an unforgettable experience.

Great idea. Relieves bunch of elite liberals of some serious cash, and deliver them back just in time for JDs big win in 2028.

If i could do it i would. Food is included so it could end up being relatively cheap.

They’d still pay taxes without using services.

Plus they’re not here.

Guess they’re doing their part to make America great again

Now that would be an interesting trip for a MAGA influencer to go on and spend four years re-educating the lost souls.

Just think of the stories they could tell about the other passengers.


https://www.indiafilings.com/learn/story-two-shoe-salesmen-africa/

Once upon a time, a shoe company sent two salesmen to Africa to determine the market potential for their products. One salesman was sent to the east coast of Africa, while the other salesman was sent to the west coast of Africa. Both the salesmen completed a basic survey of the target market and called back to the office. The salesman sent to the east coast of Africa reported: “No one here wears any shoes, there is no market for us here!”. The other salesman sent a message “No one here wears any shoes, there is a huge market for us, send inventory fast!”.

Sad to say, I align with the first salesmen, but I hope there are some like the 2nd. You might be one.

Cheaper than a nursing home or assisted living. All you can eat ice cream and jello, unlimited bingo and bocce ball. And the gals get to dance with the older guys who are cruising for free.

Perhaps with one of those viruses taking over the ship. And a BIG storm. Global warming, don’t you know. And maybe the ship will be shoved into NYC when the iceberg melts. The possibilities are endless.
