After years of "revenge travel" and jam-packed holidays, a new mindset is taking hold and reshaping how people think about vacation: the Joy of Missing Out (JOMO). Unlike tightly packed trips driven by the Fear of Missing Out (FOMO), where travelers raced to check off bucket-list destinations and capture every moment for social media, JOMO embraces a slower, more intentional approach. According to a new survey conducted by YouGov1 on behalf of Norwegian Cruise Line® (NCL), over 70% of travelers are moving away from fast-paced sightseeing toward more restorative, meaningful escapes that prioritize personal well-being, flexibility and choice.

Princess Cruises announced its 2027-2028 West Coast season, offering travelers a collection of warm-weather escapes during the cooler months.
