What It Was Really Like Going on a Gay Cruise

"A large-scale, adults-only vacation company that emphasizes inclusivity for the entire LGBTQ+ community and allies; its marketing and curated programming aim to be body-positive and diverse, which helped persuade a previously hesitant traveler to sail. The operator's chartered sailings feature varied entertainment and community-building activities, and leadership was praised for transparency around COVID protocols (including post-cruise reporting of positive tests and contact-tracing). Overall, attention to detail, inclusive vibe, and clear safety measures made the experience welcoming and repeatable for the reviewer." - Kwin Mosby Kwin Mosby Kwin Mosby is a travel journalist and the editor-in-chief of Vacationer Magazine, an LGBTQ+ travel website.
