Going To Bahamas – Choosing Between Cost And Travel Time

Posted on May 7th, 2011

You may be planning to spend this year’s spring break either at the Bahamas or St. Thomas. A cruise will be interesting but takes a lot of time. The other option is flying.

The journey takes only 4 hours or so that gives you more time for spending it on beach. This is the usual question all people going there think of.

The question is whether one should choose cheap or the fast way of travel. The route to be taken for the holiday is usually determined by the destination.

There is an option between the two, which is a good balance between cost and traveling time. It is determined by your destination. St. Thomas may probably be better for a package for a resident of Florida or someone who lives in Southeast.

It is recognized that a cruise will take much longer than air travel from the USA. If you are not bothered about the cost you may fly. Money can be saved by planning the holiday well ahead and bookings done very much in advance. Several cruises depart from Florida for St. Thomas, daily.  Read more...

Pick Up A Bargain With A Last Minute Cruise Deal

Posted on Jan 29th, 2011

For many, last minute cruises remain an excellent way to find a cheap vacation, as many cruise companies will cut their prices in the time leading up to a cruise departure.

Going on vacation is something we all love to do. It’s a time when we can do what we want to do and when we want to do it.

But there are so many different types of vacations you can go on that it’s often a hard choice to make. Below are some of the different types of vacations you can go on.

Looking At The Biggest Boats Ever

Posted on May 22nd, 2010

When you think of the biggest boats ever your mind may very well travel to the cruise ship lines that have continuously tried to build bigger, better, and more entertaining ships for the last few decades. However, they are actually rather far down on the list. Supertankers tend to take the top spots. Supertankers are designed to withstand all weather events while making the most of their cargo space.

At 1504 feet, or 458.5 meters, the Knock Nevis is the largest supertanker and largest ship built yet. Just like many other supertankers that hold positions close to the leader, the Knock Nevis is no longer in service. The less expensive, more stable, shorter tankers have actually become a shipping favorite. It is not as expensive to operate the smaller vessel even though the cargo hold isn’t as large.

In the passenger ship class, one of the biggest boats ever to be designed is nearly ready for her first splash into the water. Royal Caribbean has built a new impressive model that is 1181 feet, which is 360 meters long. She is jam packed with activities, venues, entertainment, and all the trimmings of a big city.  Read more...

There Are More, But Here Are Just 10 Reasons To Have Your Birthday Party On A Boat Cruise

Posted on Mar 24th, 2010

The older we get the more our birthdays seem to become less of an occasion. Other than the obvious milestones, there is some societal taboo that seems to stop many of us from throwing a heck of a party every year because there will be snickers and talk of “we are not five years old anymore, why should we throw such a big party?”

We can still throw big birthday celebrations when we’re older, but they’re usually reserved for the big birthdays like 30, 40, and 50 respectively. The blowouts are reserved for when we’ve passed another decade milestone in the aging process. Our friends and family look at these birthdays as the greatest excuse to do something big.

Going on an impromptu vacation can be a serious bonding time for you and your friends and with so many inclusive options you can tailor the birthday you want – be it weekend spa getaway or time on a cruise. Here are 10 reasons to have your birthday party on a boat cruise.

The first reason is price. In this economy, spending just a little to have an all inclusive experience is the ultimate luxury. Minus alcohol and some extras, all your entertainment needs are covered. You don’t have to spend time overly planning your itinerary.  Read more...

For those wishing to get away from it all, cheap cruises to the Bahamas can be just the ticket. You can enjoy the natural beauty and the native culture of the Bahamas as well as the cruise ship amenities. On such cruises, there are opportunities for everyone in your party to have a great time.

Since the Commonwealth of the Bahamas is located so close to Florida in the Atlantic your cruise will most likely depart from ports such as Fort Lauderdale Miami or Port Canaveral. Some islands are so close that a lot of cruise packages will find you in your first port of call within a few hours. The Bahamas is actually a string of nearly 700 islands between Florida and Cuba. Even a cheap weekend getaway cruise will allow you to visit at least one island in the Bahamas.

While visiting the Bahamas, you can experience the rich culture, which is a compelling mixture of African and European influences. If you just hear steel drums when you think of Bahamanian music, you have it partly right. While in the Bahamas, you are likely to hear a rhythmic form of music known as Junkanoo as well as rake and scrape and calypso. Marching bands also play an important role in island life and you may get a chance to see them in action during one of their many festivals.  Read more...

Corporate Boat Cruises Mix Business And Pleasure

Posted on Feb 25th, 2010

Corporate boat cruises are gaining popularity as an alternative for corporations who hold large meetings away from headquarters. These cruises are comparable in price with renting meeting space at hotels and in many cases offer more in the way of amenities. This article will look at some of those options.

Corporate boat cruises are plentiful and very easy to find. Use any search engine and there are dozens of them at your fingertips. Don’t forget to type your city and state at the end of the search text. This will narrow the search a bit to include only those in your immediate area.

A luxury yacht offers the same corporate facilities that a hotel offers and more. Included in the corporate packages is everything you will need to conduct business meetings, interviews, or parties. This includes modern satellite, GPs, and hi-def monitors. Telecommunications are also up-to-date and ready to connect you to the world.

Many corporations are booking cruises for a wide variety of reasons. Employee recognition is one very popular function that corporate boat cruises play in business today. Special client presentations are another. I have recently heard of a retirement party for a beloved CEO on a cruise ship.
