Does President-elect Donald Trump’s victory have you feeling down? Villa Vie Residences, a Florida-based cruise line company, may have a solution just for you. The company is offering voyages of up to four years for those “who feel threatened” and are “looking for a way to get out” of the country after the presidential election.
The Tour La Vie program gives residents the ability to escape the Trump Administration starting at a cost of approximately $40,000 per year.
“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. “It’s just the timing is with the election, and it just happened that Trump won.”

“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.”
According to Petterson, there has been a “huge uptick” in calls after announcing the cruise on November 7.
There are four variants of tickets that can be purchased as part of the program. They include a 1-year ‘Escape from Reality’ package, a 2-year ‘Mid-term Selection’ package, as well as 3-year ‘Everywhere but Home’ or 4-year ‘Skip Forward’ packages.
The four-year package costs $159,999 per person for a double room or $255,999 for a single-occupancy cabin. Sad!
