There has been a rise in demand for small-ship cruising and private charters, and a week aboard the Lastavica yacht made it clear why most expect the trend to have staying power long after Covid-19 (hopefully) wanes.

The luxury tour operator iWorld of Travel and two Israeli companies will launch a quartet of kosher river cruises next year.
Two of the 2022 sailings will be promoted to the Israeli market in May on the Danube and the Rhone, and the other two, targeting American cruisers, will sail the Danube between Budapest and Passau, Germany, in June and July.
The sailings will compete with Kosher River Cruises, which runs a series of full-ship kosher cruises in Europe, on the Mekong and on the Amazon.
