Cruise Line Updates


Some fun things to look for when booking a cruise.  Please note that Princess now lets you prebook the Alaska Shore Excursions.  That is a great thing to get done before you get on the ship and to get on those excursions that go fast!

Holland America Line debuted a new bar experience, Captain Morgan on the Rocks Island Bar, at Half Moon Cay, the line’s private island in the Bahamas. The 101-foot-long, twin-decked bar seats up to 326 guests and features historic references to Captain Morgan’s exploits. . . .
Windstar Cruises will offer 64 shore excursion options on its seven-day Italian voyages sailing between Venice and Rome; Nice and Rome and roundtrip from Rome. The shore excursions include cultural and historical experiences, food and wine tours, and walking journeys. . . .
Norwegian Cruise Line has completed the first phase of enhancements at Great Stirrup Cay, the line’s private island in the Bahamas. The enhancements include a new marina, with four docks for tenders, and a dining facility with two bars and four picnic pavilions. . . .
MSC Cruises’ MSC Poesia will operates its second season of Canada/New England cruises this fall. The month-long season begins on Sept. 28; itineraries range from seven to 12 nights. . .
In February, Royal Caribbean International’s Voyager of the Seas became the first cruise ship to call at Historic Falmouth port in Jamaica. The port, located between Ocho Rios and Montego Bay, is boasted as the first-ever themed cruise port. Restorations throughout the town of Falmouth revive the town’s historic past. . .
Princess Cruises has made it easier for cruise/tour passengers to reserve Alaska land excursions offered from its wilderness lodges. Passengers can now pre-reserve land tours with a new system similar to that used to reserve shipboard shore excursions.

Bon Voyage!
