ABOVE: EasyCruise Life becams the easyCruise flagship in 2008, replacing easyCruise One. EasyCruise is owned by Stelios Haji-Ioannou, founder of the budget airline easyJet. The line targets budget-minded cruisers in their 20s, 30s, and 40s. Fares are extremely low (about what you'd pay for a very cheap hotel room), with food and beverages being sold a la carte during the cruise. In most ports of call, the ship arrives before lunch and remains until the early hours of the following day, allowing passengers to enjoy restaurants and nightlife ashore before the ship sails. easyCruise Life became the line's new flagship in 2008. The 12,711-ton vessel was formerly the Lev Tolstoy before being acquired by easyCruise and given a multimillion-euro overhaul. Itineraries during 2009 include 3- to 14-night cruises in Greece and Turkey, with three departure ports: Piraeus, Bodrum, and Rhodes. Cruise line's Web site:
