Cruise Away from Trump Administration: Luxury Ship Offers Multi-Year Escape from the U.S

[Social Media]

 

For those looking to get away from U.S. politics over the next four years, Villa Vie Residences has introduced the Tour La Vie program, a residential cruise that allows participants to travel the world while avoiding life back home. Through this program, travelers have the chance to explore over 140 countries and skip any unwanted political atmosphere at home.

 

The program's inspiration, according to Mikael Petterson, CEO of Villa Vie Residences, came from the general tension in the political climate rather than specific election outcomes. “We came up with this marketing campaign before we even knew who would win. Regardless of who would have won, you would have half of the population upset,” Petterson told *Newsweek.* “Quite frankly, we don't have a political view one way or the other. We just wanted to give people who feel threatened to have a way to get out.” 

 

 

The Tour La Vie program offers a range of flexible packages to cater to different timelines. The annual "Escape from Reality" option costs nearly $40,000, while the four-year “Skip Forward” package for the duration of a presidential term costs $256,000 for single travelers or $320,000 for two. Those wanting shorter getaways can choose two- or three-year packages under options like "Mid-term Selection" and "Everywhere but Home." For those looking at a year-long cruise, the cost is approximately $80,000 for single travelers or $50,000 per person when shared.

 

 

Announcing the cruise led to an immediate surge in interest, Petterson said, noting a significant increase in calls and inquiries. Since Villa Vie typically sees a two- to three-week lead time for bookings, it’s expected that the company will soon know how quickly the cruise fills up. Offering up to 650 spots, the ship will visit 425 ports worldwide, providing an abundance of adventures for its residents. With an itinerary that includes a month in the Caribbean and a four-month journey around South America, travelers can look forward to two Panama Canal transits, explorations of the Chilean Fjords, a close-up view of Antarctica, Carnival in Rio, and even an Amazon River cruise.

 

Though Tour La Vie is geared toward long-term exploration, travelers can still stay connected to home. Thanks to mail services routed through the corporate office to the ship, residents can maintain voting rights, ensuring that even those away for the 2028 elections can still cast their ballots. According to Petterson, the cruise primarily attracts three groups: retirees, some as old as 92; semi-retired individuals; and younger digital nomads.

 

As the Villa Vie Odyssey embarks on the second month of its ambitious 15-year voyage, it promises to take residents to all seven continents, 13 World Wonders, and over 100 tropical islands. The all-inclusive package covers meals, drinks, a free first medical consultation, and bi-weekly housekeeping. There’s high-speed internet as well, enabling residents to stay in touch with friends and family, who can also join the cruise for $129 a day.

 

"I think the world cruising market is growing and growing,” Petterson remarked, emphasizing the appeal of this unique lifestyle. “Having the ability to completely disconnect from the world and still be connected with our internet and Wi-Fi and invite your friends on board… It really helps your ability to really live this lifestyle and still stay connected with your friends and family."

Not all Dems are misguided and not all GOP followers re misguided.

 

Dems who are focuses on equality / sharing the wealth / supporting each other are fine with me.

Here's another alternative:

 

Offering to Cryogenically Freeze Liberals, until Trump's term is up.

 

A viral video that’s making its way around social media right now is an ad for a fictional company called ‘Cryo’ which offers to cryogenically freeze liberals and wake them up when Trump’s presidency is over.

Imagine meeting people on the cruise.  Introduce yourself and discuss how much you all hate Trump and are so happy to be with other like minded people that wanted to escape politics, just to talk about the one thing you all have in common. Discussing politics and hatred for Trump on a boat with no escape for four years. Lmao.
