You may have noticed a change in focus for my blog recently. Instead of primarily focusing on personal travel experience, I've been writing about specials. It's a response to requests for information on hot deals. Of course, these deals are subject to availability at the time of purchase.
If you want more of a feel for what being on a cruise is really like, check out the Archives in the right hand column, where you can find first hand narrations of what it is like to take a cruise. You can even put a particular destination into the blog search section above to see what comes up.
A cruise line I haven't spoken about much is Norwegian. I've taken two NCL cruises in Hawaii and really enjoyed both of them. The NCL America label designates American flagged and staffed ships. At one point, they had three ships cruising around Hawaii year-round, and why not? Unfortunately, they had trouble staffing them with Americans ready to work, so now there's only one left year-round, but it is the best of them: Pride of America.
Hawaii is the greatest American tropical vacation destination, and on a cruise, you can visit the four major islands while unpacking only once. If you've never been to Hawaii, you owe it to yourself to go, and I personally think this cruise is the best way to enjoy Hawaii.
A cruise in Hawaii gives the you the chance to see the best of each island and then return to the ship for delicious meals and great entertainment. One of my favorite production shows is "Coming to America," produced exclusively for NCL's Pride of America. The ship is themed, as you may have guessed, after great places in the United States, so it is a wonderful way for Americans and foreigners alike to relish a Disneyesque version of the best of America while cruising between some of the best islands on earth.
As incredible as it seems, NCL America is offering a Winter Break cruise over New Year's Eve starting at just $799 per person. $50 pp more gets you an ocean view, but when O/V with Private Balconies are only $999 for a cruise embarking on December 26, can you really say no? This could be the hottest holiday cruise deal ever!!!
Can't change your plans that quickly? Here's another great deal for the spring, embarking on either April 25 or May 2 from New York City. This 7 Night Bermuda Cruise has Balcony Rooms starting at $849 per person!
Insides start at $499 and ocean view at $599. Bermuda is another of the all time great cruise destinations, with pink sand beaches abutting turquoise water, British charm and challenging, ocean view golf courses.
Have something more exotic in mind? How about a 9-Nights on Norwegian Jade cruising to Morocco and the Canary Islands from Barcelona on February 5? Balconies start as low as $999 per person, insides at just $599 and ocean views at $749.
When and where do you want to go? "Better service leads to better trips!"
