In ship lingo it is. A trip from Florida across the Suez Canal and out to Singapore is also considered "Transatlantic".

Basically it just matters what your starting ocean is and if it's round trip or not.

Ugh. I meant to say Panama, and I'm wrong anyway. Derp moment. Disregard.

Thanks for coming back for that. I was scratching my head trying to figure out if there was some horrid route cruise ships took to get to the Mediterranean from Florida that involved them not going into the Atlantic.

"And then everyone gets out to help carry the ship over the Darien Gap..." or possibly,"Shackleton, the adventure."
