Normal
A repostioning cruise positions the ship for a new sailing area. For example, the ships do Caribbean itineraries in the winter. Come spring, one ship will move to New York to do Bermuda. Another ship will move to the Med for Europe. The cruise to take them to their new itinerary is a repostioning cruise. Just because a ship departs from one port and disembarks passengers from another port does not make it a repositioning cruise for example: Northbound and Southbound Alaska trips. This is the normal cruise. However, the cruise to bring the ship to the Alaska departure port from its winter cruise itinerary is the repostioning cruise.
