Another myth which must be dispelled is that one must take a flight to reach your departure point, the good news in fact is that us Brits can go on a cruise without flying, direct from many ports in the UK.

In fact, there is a huge range of destinations which you can pick on a no-fly cruise, and if you are looking at this for your vacation this year, here are some of the places you could choose from.
