Cruises from Vilnius
Published: 2 min read
Vilnius lies in the Baltics, and that is exactly why residents of the Lithuanian capital have access to two seasonal cruise directions at once, not just one. In the Baltic season, a flight to Copenhagen becomes the logical choice: liners depart regularly from there in Baltic waters in summer, and reaching it from Vilnius airport is not hard. When a Mediterranean cruise is needed instead, residents usually choose a flight to Barcelona, where MSC, Royal Caribbean, Norwegian, Costa, and Celestyal wait for passengers. Both directions are served by direct flights, though the frequency and number of carriers on the Baltic direction is noticeably smaller than on the Mediterranean one, so it is worth planning the trip in advance, especially in summer. Some residents also compare flights with neighboring Riga: sometimes a more advantageous or schedule convenient option is found in the other Baltic capital rather than at home. For the Lithuanian capital, as for the rest of the Baltic countries, the choice between the two seasons is more a matter of dates and personal preference than geographic necessity: both ports are equally accessible by flight, they just lead to different seas and a different cruise format. For Ukrainians who have settled in Vilnius, this logistics requires no ground segment or border at all, unlike the route from Ukraine, where the road always consists of several stages. How this same route looks for relatives departing directly from Ukraine is described in the article "How a Ukrainian can get on a cruise: the road to the port."

Frequently asked questions
Which two cruise directions are available from Vilnius?
The Baltic one, by flight to Copenhagen in summer, and the Mediterranean one, by flight to Barcelona. The choice depends more on dates and personal preference than on geographic necessity.
Are direct flights from Vilnius to Copenhagen frequent?
There are fewer flights than on the Mediterranean direction, so it is better to plan the Baltic trip in advance, especially at the peak of summer season.
Do residents of Vilnius need to cross a border for a cruise trip?
No, the road comes down to a single flight from Vilnius airport, without a ground segment and without transit through a neighboring country.
How much time should I allow for the road from Vilnius to the port of embarkation?
Usually one day is enough, including the flight and the transfer to the port. Still worth having a small buffer in case of a flight delay.
What documents are needed for a cruise trip from Lithuania?
Requirements depend on citizenship, residence status in Lithuania, and the chosen port of embarkation. Check them on the site of the cruise line and the consulate of the destination country in advance.
