    $73,499-Per-Guest World Cruise Sells Out In Less Than 3 Hours
    NPR


    A 132-night "world cruise" sold out in under three hours, despite
    pandemic worries that have hobbled the cruise industry and steep
    prices that start at $73,499 per guest -- and range up to $199,999 per
    person for a master suite.

    Regent Seven Seas Cruises released the fares for sale at 8:30 a.m. ET
    Thursday. By 11 a.m., all the spots had been snapped up by people
    eager to spend more than four months on a cruise ship. The strong
    interest may be a positive sign for the cruise industry as it tries to
    rebound from the pandemic.

    The voyage, which will span 34,500 nautical miles, includes 66 ports
    of call, as the Seven Seas Mariner will visit 31 countries and four
    continents. Passengers will also see 61 UNESCO World Heritage Sites.
