Cruises From Southampton > October Cruises From Southampton
Spring and summer are over; the school term is now well underway; and cruise ships are chasing the sun and relocating to warmer climates, making October a great month for cruise deals! As this month falls outside of the peak travel seasons, October cruises from Southampton mean fewer crowds, warm and pleasant weather without the threat of a heatwave, and potentially more affordable cruise prices and cabin availability (especially interconnected cabins) compared to those of the spring and summer months.

Our cruise specialists are here to help plan your dream cruise holiday and help you get the best cruise deal. Do you want to combine this with a hotel stay or land tour? No problem, call us today and we’ll build a tailor made holiday just for you!
During October, Mediterranean cruises, UK & Europe cruises, and the Canary Islands & Azores cruises are enjoyed onboard an array of cruise lines, whilst many others also offer repositioning cruises across the Atlantic Ocean, including US cruises and Caribbean cruises. It’s worth noting that although round-trip no-fly transatlantic cruises are available at other times throughout the year, repositioning cruises do not return to the UK (not until the spring/summer at least), therefore a flight would be required from your disembarkation port – the perfect excuse for a cruise & stay or even a multi-centre holiday.
On the other hand, no-fly cruises are hassle-free and offer a multitude of benefits and conveniences to every type of passenger, including those fearful of flying, with limited ability, and where excess luggage could present difficulties or additional costs, such as families (or those who refuse to travel light). Simply drive to Southampton Cruise Terminal, park up, check in and sail away! It’s a stress-free experience where your holiday begins almost immediately without multiple hours of your holiday lost to airport travel and protocols. Durations range from weekend taster sailings (perfect for first-time cruisers) to multiple-week itineraries, all sailing from Southampton. Start near and go far. The World awaits!

In the Mediterranean, the months of October and November are considered shoulder seasons, meaning fewer tourists, and milder temperatures. Mediterranean cruises during these shoulder seasons often appeals to those seeking to visit popular tourist destinations without large crowds whilst the weather is still generally pleasant, or those wishing to add an extra layer of interest to their voyage by participating in cultural festivities, local celebrations, and harvest festivals and food fairs – an indulgent time of year for lovers of food and drink.
TIP: During October and November enjoy truffles in Italy, and the Sitges Wine Harvest and Cavatast Festival in Barcelona.
As spring cruises and summer cruises draw to a close, cruise lines steadily begin the task of relocating their ships. Ships that were once based in Europe sail to the warmer sunnier climes of the Caribbean, whilst others stay closer to home, leaving and arriving at a different Mediterranean port. Rather than sail empty, cruise lines offer these sailings to customers as repositioning cruises. Usually well priced, repositioning cruises often feature unique itineraries not often found throughout the spring and summer season. You may set off from Southampton and disembark in Antigua or Galveston, Texas, allowing opportunity for a spectacular cruise & stay, a multi-centre trip, or even a back-to-back cruise. They may also feature extended days at sea - perfect for travellers wishing to enjoy the amenities and activities available onboard or those seeking relaxation and a disconnect from the hustle and bustle of daily life.
