A Florida-based cruise company is offering disgruntled US voters the chance to escape by travelling the world during Donald Trump’s upcoming four years in office.
Villa Vie Residences has capitalised on the election results by offering Americans a four-year escape – the length of a presidential term – starting at around $160,000 per person, taking guests to more than 425 ports in 140 countries.
The “Tour La Vie” offers four deals, not so subtly marketed at Democrat supporters:
- One-Year Escape from Reality
- Two-Year Mid-Term Selection
- Three-Year Everywhere but Home
- Four-Year Skip Forward.
“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.

Mr Petterson said the company started working on the marketing campaign before the election and would have rolled it out regardless of who won.
“It’s not really a political campaign at all… it just happened that Trump won and there are more Democrats that are unhappy living in the US now than Republicans,” he said.
The Villa Vie Odyssey, which can house up to 600 residents, is already sailing, and guests can join at most ports.
The ship was recently stranded in Belfast for four months because it needed repairs.
