A basic magazine that isn’t worthy of the shelves in WHSmith. It’s poorly put together by creators that clearly have no design or editorial background. The magazine resembles a college project stitche... See more

A 'must have' for Cruise lovers!

Sail Away magazine is a top quality publication written by cruise experts for cruise lovers. If you are new to cruising, it gives you lots of insights to the various different cruise lines / ships and for those who are already seasoned cruisers, the articles written by fellow cruising influencers is a real bonus as having interacted with many on Instagram and YouTube in the past it is nice to see them featured. Well done Dan & Jay for creating such a fab magazine 😉🛳

By Cruisers, For Cruisers… But Could Use Some Tweaking

Overall, as a cruise fan, I love getting a monthly magazine devoted to nothing but. What I say now I say as someone who has been executive editor of a magazine for over 20 years: The copy is always clean, but often a little bit dry. There's no real spark or personality to it. And sometimes, the accompanying layouts don't make the most of what you have. For example, the Queen Mary 2 cover story... the technical interview with the engineer was far longer than the article about the refit and how the public spaces were revamped, which is what I'd bet more readers were interested in. Also, the pics accompaying that article were small, presented with a wall of text. I'd have given that more pages, made it a big, splashy, special section. Let people see those glorious spaces via bigger pictures! Bump something to the next issue if necessary.

Thanks for taking the time to provide us with a review. The feedback we have received has been largely positive from our readers. We feature much larger images than many of other cruise travel magazine's in the UK, and strive to give a much wider variety of voices and content compared to similar publications. We are grateful for your support.

Sold on Sailaway!

Love that I can get the magazine in paper or on digital. Although I love holding a magazine, I chose to get it digitally to carry it for reading on my cruises! Thanks for the content of inspiration and truth!

Just what I’ve been looking for..

I’ve been looking in local shops for a while now for a cruise magazine to no avail. I follow an instagram account who just so happened to feature in the latest addition of Sail Away Magazine and I thought I’d check them out.
The first magazine I received did not disappoint! Great articles from different people who love cruising. There’s different points of views in the articles, whether positive or constructive, for different cruise lines and aspects of cruise life. Love the extra pages: poems and jokes!
A subscription service makes it so easy. A cruise magazine straight to your door! Can’t wait for the next addition. 🛳️🌊💙

What you can learn from Sail Away

Sail Away is a new glossy magazine dedicated to the world of cruising. Its articles are wide ranging, informative and insightful. The current issue covers topics on ship architecture, insights into what makes the first female cruise ship captain tick, how she relates to her crew, information on cruise companies, their ships, their target markets, their itineraries, destinations and the service they offer.

I particularly like that the magazine garners views and experiences from a wide range of sources covering many viewpoints. As such not only do they inform us about their own in house reminiscences and observations but they also encompass ideas and perspectives from many others achieving a rounded and wider based presentation.

The current magazine contains an article from my favourite U tube bloggers- Suite Natured. They have written an informative article on Transatlantic Repositioning Cruises which challenges many misconceptions. I’m sure such articles will also appeal and inform others in my own demographic.

As a result the magazine covers a wide variety of topics, gives advice on many current issues and provides insight for all cruisers no matter what their budget, preferences, their age and expectations may be.

I enjoy and recommend this product.
