Cruising offers the greatest way to see the world, without flying. To learn more about no fly vacations, click here to get the information.
Cruise Industry NewsHere are two of several things happening in the cruise industry: 1. Newest Royal Caribbean Ship Debuts 2016
Harmony will soon join Oasis and Allure of the Seas as the biggest cruise ships on the high seas. This ship is scheduled to set sail next June, and will operate some European itineraries before crossing the Atlantic to its homeport in Ft. Lauderdale in November 2016.
Norwegian Cruise Line and Princess Cruises, which currently operate from that port, will be pulling their ships next year. Sadly, no one yet knows when another cruise ship will return to Houston. Thankfully, those mighty Texans can turn to Galveston for several available cruise itineraries.
Plan A Group CruiseA group cruise is generally comprised of at least 8 cabins (number varies by cruise lines), each with 2 or more passengers. Group Cruise Ideas: graduation celebration, retirement celebration, family reunions, employee appreciation, club or organization fundraiser, girlfriends' getaway, couples' retreat, church outing, wedding, etc. Reasons for planning a group cruise: Cruising with a group is much more fun than cruising alone. I have done both and really prefer sailing with a group. Furthermore, there are perks to be had when cruising as a group. Plan your group cruise today. Learn more about group cruises here.
On this cruise, each guest is asked to bring a backpack with supplies for orphans in Cozumel. Petes Travel Center will provide the backpacks and guests are asked to volunteer to add the supplies. The dates are February 15-20, 2016 - Presidents' Day week. It is a 5-day sailing aboard Carnival Elation out of New Orleans to Cozumel and Progreso, Mexico. Prices for inside cabins start under $400 per person and under $450 per person for oceanview cabins. In addition, each cabin will have $50 to spend onboard the ship.

If you are retired, then this cruise is for you. Sail like royalty aboard the beautiful Emerald Princess next March and escape the brutal North American winter. The cruise is set for March 14-19, 2016 and will sail from Ft. Lauderdale. For more information and to reserve your cabin, click here.
Have you sailed on the biggest cruise ship at sea - Allure of the Seas? Now you can! There is a group cruise planned for October 30, 2016 to November 6, 2016 on this beautiful ship, and you are invited. For more information and to reserve your cabin, click here.
Cruise Saving TipHere is something everyone loves - learning how to save a buck or two on their cruise ship vacation. Tip: Book Your Cruise With A Smaller Ship In today's age, bigger is generally better for most people. However, in the world of cruising, smaller may actually save you some money. Consider that a smaller ship is less crowded. Also, due to its "real estate", its ticket prices are generally less expensive. If you are always looking for bigger ships, consider a smaller one. You may just be happy with what you save in your cruise fare. That means you will have more money to spend on other things. Ask your travel professional to recommend a nice and less expensive small ship and save some money. Happy saving!
