🎢 Freedom of the Seas
This isn't exactly a small ship with a swimming pool bolted to the top.
Freedom of the Seas is one of Royal Caribbean's family-friendly Freedom Class ships, with swimming pools, waterslides, entertainment, restaurants and plenty to keep everyone occupied during those Atlantic sea days.
Turn It Into a Florida Holiday
The really interesting part is where the cruise finishes.
Rather than simply flying to Florida, you could use the cruise as the journey there and add a few nights in Miami, Orlando or the Florida Keys afterwards.
💰 From £1,223.60 for a Family of Four
For 12 nights' accommodation, meals and transport across the Atlantic for four people, this is a pretty remarkable starting price.
Cruise fares can change quickly and the cheapest cabin availability is limited, so check the current price before booking.
