An early Xmas present from RCI.
While I have been away on my holidays the big news to come out in the cruise industry is the announcement that Royal Caribbean’s newest ship, The Anthem of the Seas, will be cruising from Southampton in 2015 and will be replacing Independent of the Seas. The Anthem will be the sister ship to Quantum […]
Read MoreGift ideas for Xmas
Santa is almost upon us (yes still 28 days to go but those days go so quick in December) and If any of you are like me then I know many of you still have presents to buy. Buying someone a holiday is way out of reach for many people but what about a break, […]
Read MoreP&O and Cunard to scrap the Getaway?
After a few years of Getaway Fares/ Vantage Fares (Price protected promise) and lots of very unhappy cruisers it looks like P&O have finally realised (or agreed) that this fare structure just is not fair for many of their loyal customers. It has always been frowned upon among the travel industry when Getaway Fares […]
Read MoreAre Carnival being racist?!!!
When I chat with my clients most of the time they share the same disgruntled opinion about tipping as I do. As Brits we are not use to it, it is not in our nature and we have not been bought up tipping everyone but at least we are given the choice to tip or […]
Read MoreGood price, good ship, what about the service?

Read MoreCalling all families
It has come to my attention on a couple of occasions this week that families are still un-aware of P&O Cunard’s Getaway Fares now being applicable for 3 and 4 berth cabins. After years of families complaining that these great reduced prices are no good for them the cruise lines have taken steps to offer […]
Read MoreMore fly cruise options from the North
Good news this week as Jet2 announce that they are going to add flights from Leeds Bradford, Newcastle and Glasgow to New York, Toronto and Boston. This will be of great relief to those North of the UK that get put off with indirect flights or the hassle of driving to London then to have […]
Read MoreOffice working with a splash of sun cream
As a white collared office worker I am very fortunate at this time of the year, and this summer specifically that I can ditch the shirt, the office, air con and slap on some sun cream and work from my garden. Yes, it’s true, I can look at holidays, book holidays, take calls, make calls […]
