Cruise Tips – 8 Ways to Save Money and Enjoy Your Cruise By Peter Shannon
Here are a few cruise tips to help you plan, save money and enjoy your cruise vacation.
Schedule your cruise during the off-season. This is a simple but very excellent way to save a bundle on your cruise vacation. Cruise lines are like any other travel related business. They have seasonal ups and downs. During the peak cruise season cruise lines charge more. Why? Because they can.
During the slow season the prices drop because there are fewer customers and the cruise lines need to fill the ship to stay profitable. This is basic demand vs. supply economics and you can take advantage of it.
The cost of the cruise itself is only part of your cruise vacation budget. Most travelers will have to fly to the port city where the cruise departs. Don’t assume that you have to pay for this. It is not unusual for a cruise line to offer packages that include airfare.
As you research and plan your cruise, keep an eye out for these airfare-included deals. If you don’t see anything right away, don’t be afraid to ask. You never know what great deals may be available once to dig a little deeper.
Seasickness is a common problem for many people who want to cruise. Did you know that your choice of cabin can actually help with this? The fact is that the rolling up and down ocean movements are much less in the middle of the ship compared with the front and back of the ship. Most people, especially newcomers to cruising, are not aware of this. By selecting a cabin closer to the middle, you can reduce the sea movements that cause seasickness and have a much more enjoyable cruise experience.
Shore excursions are a popular and fun part of cruising. But often these excursions have a limited number of participants. Don’t wait to the last minute, assuming that you will be able to just join in on any shore excursion that interests you. Plan ahead. Find out what excursions are planned and sign up as early as possible so you don’t get left out.
If you are trying to save money, ask during your planning stage about available shore excursions. Many cruise lines offer complimentary shore excursions as part of the cruise package. This can be a great money saver. Always ask about the shore excursion pricing. Don’t assume an advertised excursion is included with your trip.
If you are planning a family cruise, you can really help make the experience the best for everyone by choosing a good family friendly cruise line. Some are better than others when it comes to catering to families. You need to ask. – Caribbean Cruise Line
Many cruise lines have a host of activities geared for kids and a staff dedicated to keeping the kids happy. Other things like kid’s pools, clubs and kid-friendly shore excursions are offered by some cruise lines. On-board strollers and cribs can help make it easier to cruise with a family.
One of the choices you have when choosing a cruise is the size of the cruise line and the ship. With the larger ships you will probably be going to the more popular, well known ports. You will typically have a large and varied selection of fun things to do on-board.
On the other hand, choosing a smaller ship can result in a more slow-paced intimate experience. A smaller cruise ship will be more likely to take you to lesser known, less traveled ports. It all depends on the cruise experience you are looking for. Select the trip that suites your taste.
For some people, cruising is just about general relaxing and sightseeing. But maybe you want more. How about a cruise that combines the pleasure of getting out on the ocean while also focusing on something that you are passionate about?
Many cruise lines offer theme cruises. Maybe you enjoy, or want to learn about gourmet cooking. Maybe you are really into scrapbooking. You can find lots of specialized cruises where you can indulge in your own interests with other people who share your passion. From poker to mahjong, or singles to life healing and yoga, there’s a theme cruise waiting for you.

2010s Ships: 2010 Ships, MS Queen Elizabeth, USS San Diego, Mv Pacific Egret, List of Ship Launches in 2010 $14.14 Purchase includes free access to book updates online and a free trial membership in the publisher’s book club where you can select from more than a million books without charge. Not illustrated. Excerpt: MS Queen Elizabeth is a Vista class cruise ship, currently being built by Italian shipbuilder Fincantieri at its Monfalcone shipyard and is owned by the Cunard Line. On delivery in September 2010, Queen Elizabeth will operate as a sister ship to MS Queen Victoria. Her design has been modified from previous Vista class vessels, meaning that she will be slightly larger than her sister at 92,000 gross tons, largely due to a more vertical stern. Capable of carrying up to 2,092 passengers, she will be the second largest Cunard ship ever built, after RMS Queen Mary 2. The name of the ship was announced by Cunard on 10 October 2007, so that the company would have three vessels once again after the retirement of the QE2. The naming of the ship as Queen Elizabeth will see a situation similar to that between 1940 and 1948 – during those years, Cunard’s original Queen Elizabeth was in service at the same time as the Royal Navy battleship Queen Elizabeth. In 2014, four years after this ship joins the fleet, the Royal Navy plan to introduce into service the new aircraft carrier HMS Queen Elizabeth. It was announced by Cunard that her first commanding officer will be Captain Chris Wells. The Queen Elizabeth wil be almost identical in design to her sister ship Queen Victoria, although because of the steeper stern, her passenger capacity will be slightly higher (2058 to Queen Victoria’s 2014). Also because of this difference, the largest suites at the stern of the Queen Elizabeth will have smaller balconies . At the forward end of deck 11, there will be a glass roof covering the games deck, unlike the sports deck on the Queen Victoria. Although having an almost identical interior arrangement to the Queen Victoria, the decor will be very di… More: |

A Hanging Offense: The Strange Affair of the Warship Somers $12.45 Mutiny on the Bounty is one of history’s greatest naval stories — yet few know the similar tale from America’s own fledgling navy in the dying days of the Age of Sail, a tale of mutiny and death at sea on an American warship. In 1842, the brig-of-war Somers set out on a training cruise for apprentice seamen, commanded by rising star Alexander Mackenzie. Somers was crammed with teenagers. Among them was Acting Midshipman Philip Spencer, a disturbed youth and a son of the U.S. Secretary of War. Buying other crew members’ loyalty with pilfered tobacco and alcohol, Spencer dreamed up a scheme to kill the officers and turn Somers into a pirate ship. In the isolated world of a warship, a single man can threaten the crew’s discipline and the captain’s authority. But one of Spencer’s followers warned Mackenzie, who arrested the midshipman and chained him and other ringleaders to the quarterdeck. Fearing efforts to rescue the prisoners, officers had to stay awake in round-the-clock watches. Steering desperately for land, sleep-deprived and armed to the teeth, battling efforts to liberate Spencer, Somers’s captain and officers finally faced a fateful choice: somehow keep control of the vessel until reaching port — still hundreds of miles away — or hang the midshipman and his two leading henchmen before the boys could take over the ship. The results shook the nation. A naval investigation of the affair turned into a court-martial and a state trial and led to the founding of the Naval Academy to provide better officers for the still-young republic. Mackenzie’s controversial decision may have inspired Herman Melville’s great work Billy Budd. The story of Somers raises timeless questions still disturbing in twenty-first-century America: the relationship between civil and military law, the hazy line between peace and war, the battle between individual rights and national security, and the |

Arabxilla $16.98 That BPitch Control would be the home for an artist like Aerea Negrot, clearly and happily engaging with the world as she sees fit, as much in the realm of the musical as the geographic, seems apt. BPitch Control’s Ellen Allien, more than many label heads, seems less interested in promoting clones than in distinct visions, and Negrot’s multilingual, slippery style brings an electronic pop that seems to be constantly fraying in different directions while her strong, playful voice sweeps and calmly sings like she’s on ice and in perfect control of every direction she’s heading. If there’s a connection to her guest work with Hercules & Love Affair, it lies in the feeling of constant forward motion, but Negrot’s flexibility with sonic twists and arrangements is very much its own world. Just hearing her playful way around German on “Deutsche Werden,” an off-kilter kind of cabaret and role play, is worth the attention. “Berlin” is even more of that feeling, piano, spoken word introduction, the clink of glasses in a club and more, while the stellar “It’s Lover, Love” could be from the ultimate cruise of dreams, something that shows up a lot of neo-yacht rock/chillwave/whatever one wants to term it with calm focus and poised singing brought to bear. The title track feels almost like a short story in song form, Negrot making a line like “From a Diet Pepsi!” have a sudden cutting resonance while operatic echoes and crisp handclaps surround the delivery. When she proclaims “This is a love song” over the crisp, nervy four-to-the-floor punch of “Todeloo,” then grapples with familial relationships under pressure while she proudly stands up for being “not your dream,” it’s confident and engaging liberation come to life. ~ Ned Raggett, Rovi |

Ashland, Virginia (Images of America Series) $8.75 In 1837, the Richmond, Fredericksburg, and Potomac Railroad laid its iron-capped wooden rails from Richmond to Aquia Creek. There, passengers could meet a stagecoach that would transport them to the railroad-owned steamship line and cruise up the Potomac to Washington. In between their outset and destination was a boggy, overgrown area known as the Slashes, which seemed the perfect rest stop for weary travelers during the 1850s. The region was renamed Ashland, after native son Henry Clay’s home in Kentucky. By 1867, the Civil War had brought economic collapse and a resultant depression, and as a town that had relied on revenue from gambling, horseracing, and other leisure activities, Ashland faced serious challenges to its very existence. Randolph-Macon College, originally in Mecklenburg County, made a deal with Ashland that would save both the town and the nation’s oldest Methodist college by reestablishing its campus along their railroad tracks. |

Best Dives of Jamaica $6.99 Jamaica’s first tourists arrived in the late 1800s by banana boat, the result of a brainstorm by New England sea captain Lorenzo Down Baker, who fell in love with this mountainous island of delights. By the turn of the century banana exports had grown and Jamaica had become one of the trendiest vacation spots in the world. Today most tourists arrive by jet and cruise ship. In all, 1.3 million tourists -arrive each year to experience Jamaica’s watersports, mountain vistas, night life and duty-free shopping. At 4,411 square miles, it is the third-largest island in the Caribbean after Cuba and Hispaniola. Geographically, it is a cornucopia of scenic wonders. Miles of soft sand beaches and lush greenery line the coasts, and high mountains loom inland. Overall, the terrain is very mountainous, with half of the land -rising above 1,000 feet. The highest point, Blue Mountain Peak, soars to 7,402 feet. – higher than any other peak in the eastern half of North America. Hundreds of wild rivers and plunging waterfalls crisscross the mountains and moisten the fertile valleys, which produce some of the world’s best coffee, fruits, flowers and vegetables. The flatter southern coast can look like the African savanna or the Indian plains and has alternating black and white sand beaches as well as -mineral springs. Offshore reef tracts provide a bounty of dive and snorkeling sites. Many are a short swim from the beach. Wall dives predominate as Jamaica’s north stretch of reef edges the Great Cayman Trench. A ledge of shallow reefs stretches around the island’s perimeter. Depths range from extreme shallows to awesome depths. Based on the classic, Best Dives of the Caribbean, this guide zeroes in on thebest dives of Jamaica. It includes the latest and best dive and snorkel sites, each rated for visual excellence and marine life. The author’s knowledge of the Caribbean sites is unparalleled. From sunken planes and snorkel trails to blue holes, the best destinations beneath the waves |

Building the Biggest: From Ironships to Cruise Liners $29.95 In 1843 Brunel’s ironship Great Britain was launched, becoming the forerunner of the great steel-hulled ships of today. Yet she was tiny compared with the transatlantic liners of the early 1900s as ship owners vied for a top spot in terms of speed, elegance, and size. Liners such as Mauritania and Titanic were later followed by two giant Queens and France’s liner Normandie. But the coming jet age threatened the end of the ocean line until the dedicated cruise ship was born a decade later and now the ships are as massive as the industry itself. Geoff Lunn traces the many changes in construction and design over the years, and looks at what the biggest means across all spheres, and not just physical size. This illustrated book also reviews the careers of the greatest ships, culminating in the building of Royal Caribbean’s Genesis-class cruise ships, Oasis of the Seas (2009) and Allure of the Seas (2010), each incredibly measuring three times the tonnage of the QE2. |

City Lights: Stories about New York $6.11 With a poet’s clear eye and a journalist’s curiosity about how a city works, Dan Barry shows us New York as no other writer has seen it.Evocative, intimate, piercing, and often funny, the essays in City Lights capture everyday life in the city at its most ordinary and extraordinary. Wandering the city as a columnist for The New York Times, Barry visits the denizens of the Fulton Fish Market on the eve of its closing; journeys with an obsessed guide through the secret underground of abandoned subway stops, tunnels, and aqueducts; touches down in bars, hospitals, churches, diners, pools, zoos, memorabilia-stuffed apartments, at births and funerals, the places where people gather, are welcomed, or depart; talks to the ex-athlete who caught the falling baby, the performance artist who works as a mermaid, the octogenarian dancers who find quiet joy in their partnership, and the guy who waves flags over the Cross-Bronx Expressway to wish drivers safe passage. Along the way, Barry offers glimpses of New York’s distant and recent past. He explains why the dust-coated wishbones hanging above the bar at McSorley’s Old Ale House belong to the doughboy ghosts of World War I. He recalls a century of grandeur at the Plaza Hotel throught the tales of longtime doormen who will soon be out of a job. He finds that an old man’s quiet death opens back into a past that the man had spent his life denying. And, from the vantage of the Circle Line cruise around Manhattan, he joins tourists as they try to make sense of still-smoldering ruins in Lower Manhattan three weeks after September 11, 2001.Each story in City Lights illuminates New York, as it was and as it is: always changing, always losing and renewing parts of itself, every street corner an opportunity for surprise and revelation. |
