Repositioning
The question was: What does it mean when a cruise is called "repositoning",
Cruise lines set itinararies according to schedules for different parts of the world based upon peak seasons for travelers. So when it says a ship is repositioning, it means the ship is going to a location to serve a peak season in a particular area. Unlike hotels, ships can take advantage of proximity to attain the most lucrative and exotic locations. Repositioning cruises are usually offered at a bargain fare, but remember they are one way. Check out some of these offers on this site.
