(Gray News) – A cruise company is offering a four-year escape to Americans who are looking to escape President-elect Donald Trump’s second term.
A few days after the election, Villa Vie Residences announced the launch of its “Tour La Vie” program which allows clients to travel the world on its cruise ship for up to four years, visiting more than 425 ports in 140 countries, according to a press release.
The company is offering four deals: 1-Year Escape from Reality, 2-Year Mid-Term Selection, 3-Year Everywhere but Home and 4-Year Skip Forward.
Prices start at around $40,000 per person.
According to the company’s website, the four-year package costs $159,999 per person for a double room or $255,999 for a single-occupancy cabin.
“If you’re looking for an escape, there is no better place than on a ship, right, where you can wake up every day to a new backyard and get everything you need taken care of,” said Mikael Petterson, the company’s founder and CEO.
Petterson said regardless of the election results, the cruise would’ve still happened, AP reported.
“It’s just the timing is with the election, and it just happened that Trump won,” he said. “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.”
Petterson said the Villa Vie Residences is already experiencing a “huge uptick” in calls after announcing the cruise.
