What does Cruise represent?

For Felix, the cruise symbolizes a bold new future and a break away from the past. No longer held back by his bitterness over losing his job or his grief over the death of Miranda, Felix’s final voyage is symbolic of a fresh start and a new chapter in his life.

At the end of the novel, Felix is planning to take a cruise along with Estelle and 8Handz, during which he will give lectures about the success of the Fletcher Correctional Players. This is symbolic of the final voyage planned by the characters in The Tempest to return to Italy on a ship. For Prospero, this final voyage is a return to his home after a long absence.
