cruise routes

Ocean liner trajectories

Cruise routes are the planned itineraries that cruise ships follow, typically connecting multiple ports of call across a region.

Routes are often named for the waters or destinations they cover: Caribbean cruise routes, Alaska cruise routes, Mediterranean cruise routes.

Passengers select cruises based partly on which routes appeal to them, considering ports visited, time at sea, and seasonal factors.
