A transatlantic cruise includes one of the greatest sights in cruising, that is the view as you sail in or out of New York. It's a real thrill. Duck your head as you squeeze beneath the Verrazano-Narrows Bridge, the double-decked suspension bridge that connects Staten Island and Brooklyn. The Statue of Liberty looks down on you, the famous Manhattan skyline beckons on the horizon. What better way to start or end a transatlantic crossing? Transatlantic cruising is the sophisticated way to travel between America and Europe. Cruising the Atlantic has been one of the pastimes of the rich and famous since the dawn of the age of steamships. Now the romantic allure of an Atlantic crossing is within reach of nearly everybody. Spring and autumn are the peak season, as cruise lines reposition ships between the Mediterranean and the Caribbean. To cruise from New York is truly something special. Eastbound or westbound the tradition endures.
