Cruise Line Announces Incredible New Routes From Philadelphia

How incredible! It's time to set sail for an amazing Caribbean adventure with new cruise routes out of Philadelphia. A ship is about to start cruising out of a Philadelphia port and it is going to change the way we vacation. The fact we can start taking an Uber or have someone drop us off at the cruise terminal at a Philadelphia port, board the amazing ship, and enjoy an incredible trip to Bermuda is exciting. What a treat!

Not only is it going to make vacationing easy - no flights, trains, etc. The Philadelphia port is also expected to bring over 2,000 new jobs to the region and $40 million in annual revenue. Hopefully, this also means more people will come to Philly to leave from the city rather than fly to Florida.

"This means tourism travel to our city, jobs for our workers at PhilaPort, and simply put, broader economic opportunity for Philadelphia," Mayor Cherelle Parker said in a statement.

Norwegian Cruise Line announced they will soon offer trips from Philadelphia. The Jewel ship will begin picking up passengers from The Port of Philadelphia starting in 2026. With the brand new park that is going to connect Front Street to Delaware Ave, and now cruises leaving out of a Philadelphia port, we are becoming quite the destination.

Sean Mahoney, senior director of marketing for PhilaPort, said they are "developing a facility in the SouthPort Marine Terminal complex." The Norwegian Jewel is expected to port in Philadelphia 24 times from April to October and will alternate homeports between Philadelphia and Quebec City.

Norwegian Cruise Line is an American cruise line founded in Norway in 1966, incorporated in Bermuda and headquartered in Miami. It is the fourth-largest cruise line in the world by passengers, controlling about 8.6% of the total worldwide share of the cruise market by passengers as of 2021.

There are some great direct Frontier Airlines flights out of Philadelphia. If you want to go on a trip, they got you!

Layovers are hard, right? There's having to change planes and running through busy airport terminals to make sure you catch your next flight. Then, the possibility of delays making your travel schedule hectic and complicated. And don't even get me started on the possibility of the airport losing your luggage.

Flying direct is sometimes just the way to go. Sometimes, though, affordable direct flights are hard to come by. Here is where Frontier steps in! They have plenty of direct flights to a ton of fantastic destinations.

Essentially, if you haven’t taken advantage of your vacation time this year, you might want to consider it now, because we put together a list of places Frontier can take you. These are locations that do not require a layover in a random city. No stress, no booking it to another terminal, and no bag loss.

It’s getting to that time of year when we all need a well-deserved break. You probably find yourself looking out the window at work, staring at the weather outside, daydreaming. You need a good vacation. It’s always a good idea to get some time to relax.

Vacation shouldn't be a source of MORE stress. Taking a direct flight can take some of that pressure out of going on a trip. There are fewer steps, making it quicker to get to your vacation destination.

Philadelphians rejoice! Take a break and find a flight that tickles your fancy. Or, if you were already planning on going to one of these places soon, consider flying Frontier and go direct. Pack your bags and get ready to set off.

Miami is a largely popular vacation spot. The Miami area has something to do for everyone. From the trendy nightlife of South Beach to the energy of Little Havana, there is always something going on. For those who like it a bit more tame, there are opportunities for deep-sea fishing, golf, and tennis. The cherry on top? The ability to see beaches and palm trees is in stark contrast to what we have here in Philly!

Knoxville has what you’re looking for, whether it's family fun or a private couple's getaway. There is a bustling nightlife in the city, with tons of great local bars to hit up.

Chicago is more than the deep-dish, gang! There is no shortage of fun in this city. Consider going to the historic Wrigley Field to watch some baseball, or taking a river-boat cruise. If you like shopping, stroll down the 13-block stretch of Michigan Avenue, dubbed The Magnificent Mile. It is home to hundreds of stores, from high-end designers to department stores. Or, take in some rich musical history and learn about Chicago's jazz and blues culture.

Hit the beach where the water is far bluer. Lay under some palm trees with a drink in your hand and enjoy. Fort Lauderdale is chock-full of luxurious resorts, yachts, and dream homes. The proximity to the Atlantic Ocean and Intracoastal Waterway is responsible for Fort Lauderdale’s beachfront promenade, which is a great place to visit on vacation. Don't forget opportunities for fishing, diving, and water sports, as well as shopping, dining, nightlife, and people-watching.
