Can you take only part of a cruise?

Depends — it would be more helpful if you could provide the details of the specific cruise you’re interested in.

But as a rule of thumb, cruise lines figure the more paying passengers the better. Local cruise companies thus sell packages originating from all major cities visited, and it’s also quite common to do ‘one-way’ cruises where people cruise one way and fly back. Problem is, these are usually sold as packages with the return flight included, you may have trouble sorting out a simple one-way. Contact the cruise operator (not a travel agent) directly and ask.

On the other hand, if it’s a ‘non-local’ cruise company doing something like a one-off repositioning cruise from Alaska to Asia, they may not have the infrastructure to handle passengers boarding from random ports along the way. This is more the exception than the rule.
