Why? These cruises are somewhat rare and are often only offered a couple of times a year at the beginning and end of Alaskan cruising season by repositioning ships. In this case, Radiance of the Seas is repositioning from Alaska at the end of the season and will offer this 8-night sailing from Vancouver, BC to San Diego, California.
Both the the embarkation and debarkation ports are destinations of their own and the ports of call in between are amazing. To top it all off, these cruises are often cheap. This one as of March 6, 2023, was only $521 per person for an interior stateroom and featured balcony rooms under $1,000 per person.
The only downside would be flight prices to/from different cities for the start and finish of the cruise. If you're looking for something different or have never visited the west coast, a cruise is a surprisingly good way to see a big chunk of it as most destinations in the west are coastal.
