There’s a Golden Girls-themed cruise setting sail next year and we’re packing our bags already.

Departing from Miami (because where else would it be leaving from?), the ship will make stops at Key West and Cozumel, according to Country Living

And while tickets for the 2020 cruise are sold out, the exact same trip will be taking place next year, too. The event, hosting by Flip Phone Events, will take place from April 5, 2021 to April 10, 2021.

There’s going to be plenty of GG trivia, as well as a caftan Sail Away Party with cheesecake, a musical celebration with The Golden Gays NYC, the Rusty Anchor Karaoke Party and the Shady Pines Craft Corner.

There’s also going to be a One Night in St. Olaf Dance Party (Including a game of Ugel and Flugel), a  performance from GG Live: A Drag Parody, the original GG parody tribute, a costume contest, talent show and fancy dinner.

Melinda Mcclanahan, Rue’s sister, will be there for a Golden Girls panel discussion and a GG Forever Panel Discussion with Jim Colucci (Author of GG Forever) and Stan Zimmerman (original writer)

And it wouldn’t really be a Golden Girls themed cruise without Dorothy’s Bingo, would it?

Now for the downside: you’ll have to be ready to splash the cash if you want to head along on the Golden Girls-themed cruise.

Cabin prices begin at $1,499.99 per person, based on a double occupancy. They include  port charges, taxes, gratuities and two perks (perks include: $300 credit per cabin, unlimited beverage package, or WiFi).

Airfare is not included, though, so we reckon it’s time to start looking up flights…
