NOV 1, 2020 - IMPORTANT UPDATE REGARDING CPC 2021
Due to all the COVID-19 restrictions and uncertainty that will limit us in providing the amazing Spring Break experience that you deserve; we have made the difficult decision to cancel our College Party Cruise 2021 events. If you are a guest currently booked on CPC, please review your options HERE.
While we originally expected smooth sailing by March of 2021, recent developments have made it very clear that it will not be possible to hold our events for Spring Break 2021.
- Many schools have cancelled Spring Break (University of Florida & Florida State, Ohio & Ohio State, West Virginia, Michigan State, Penn State, Georgia, and more…) and we expect a lot more schools to follow.
- Although cruise lines are adopting COVID-19 protocols that will keep everyone safe and healthy (which are being reviewed by the CDC), Royal Caribbean Cruise Line, along with many other cruise companies, continue to postpone sailing through the end of the year. Nobody knows what cruising will look like when cruise lines resume sailing, which makes it impossible for us to plan any events ahead of time.
- We expect the new protocols to include social distancing requirements and capacity restrictions. These restrictions will not allow us to hold our Spring Break events on the ship.
We want to guarantee that you get the CPC experience that you have come to love and expect. Although we are extremely disappointed that we are not able to host our events in 2021, we expect to have an EPIC comeback in 2022! Booking for CPC 2022 will open soon.
Please contact us at info@ignitecruises.com if you have any questions or comments.
As always, we are extremely grateful to you for your enthusiasm, support, interest, and participation; so from all of us on the CPC team - THANK YOU!

We are sailing on the following 2 weeks:
Week 1: March 08 – March 12, 2021

If you are booking a flight to and from Miami we suggest that you consider arriving a day or two earlier so that you can take advantage of the local attractions in the Miami area. This also helps to avoid potential flight delays, baggage collection and transfer problems that could occur.
When booking flights, we recommend that you arrive in Miami no later than 11:00am on Monday. Return flights should be arranged to leave Miami after 12:00pm (noon) on Friday, in the event there is a delay in debarkation. If you plan to fly into or out of Ft. Lauderdale, please add an additional 1-2 hours for travel in the event of traffic.
Day 1: Miami, Florida
Boarding Day.
Ship departure time is 4:30 p.m. Passenger loading generally begins at approximately 11:00 a.m. Make sure to be on the ship by 3:00 p.m. Now that you are on the ship, Spring Break has officially started! The entire ship, including the slides, pools, buffet, and bars are open and waiting for you… we hope you are thirsty and hungry. Grab some lunch, a drink (or two), and then check in with CPC to pick up your wristbands and tank tops at our private meet and greet. Once you’re settled in, then its off to the sail away party on the pool deck as we wave goodbye to Miami and head out sea.
Day 2: Nassau, Bahamas
We’ll dock in Nassau at 8:00am. Here we have all day to explore everything that the Bahamian capital, Nassau, has to offer. It’s no coincidence that Nassau has become the #1 destination for Spring Break. You’ll have all day to hang out and party with us at our CPC Beach Party where we will have music, beach games, and activities exclusive for College Party Cruise! While in Nassau, you can also go on a snorkeling excursion, shop in the world famous Straw Market, or generally explore one of the Caribbean’s most famous destinations at your leisure.
You’ll get to enjoy the sunset from the shore from Senor Frogs at our CPC after-party, or one of the many bars lined up right on the water just within walking distance from the cruise port.
Day 3: PERFECT DAY Cococay, Bahamas
Today we dock at Royal Caribbean’s private island. Cococay is an unspoiled private paradise where you can relax in white-sandy beaches or participate in optional thrills and excursions. Most of the experiences at Perfect Day at CocoCay are complimentary, these include: free beach chairs, umbrellas, and towels, beachside activities, Oasis Lagoon – the Caribbean’s largest fresh water pool and swim up bar, sports courts, and more — not to mention five new complimentary dining venues located throughout the island. Other attractions, like Thrill Waterpark, the Zip Line, and Up, Up and Away helium balloon, are optional and available for a charge.

Day 4: Cruising At Sea
Now that you’ve had a chance to meet tons of Spring Breakers in your #CPCFam, you’ll see plenty of familiar faces during our day at sea. With such a massive and action pack ship like the Navigator of the Seas, a day at sea is definitely required. This is your chance to experience all the thrills this amazing ship has to offer, from the Flowrider surf simulator to the longest water-slide at sea…. did you know you could even go ice-skating in the middle of the Caribbean? Or simply relax by one of the 3 pools or hang out with your new friends in one of the 5 hot-tubs. Make sure not to miss the hillarious competitions by the pool, like the classic Belly-Flop Competition or the Worlds Sexiest Man Competition.
Day 5: Miami, Florida
Last day…
Wake up (if you even slept), eat your last breakfast on board, exchange info with all your new friends, and walk off the ship in Miami, Florida. Although you’re sad that the cruise is over, your head is held high because you have the best stories and the funniest pictures. These last 4 days were amazing and we can’t wait to see your memories on social media.
