Today’s Cruises – September 29, 2013

The world of cruises is truly worldwide today, with 29 different cruise ships setting sail on lots of 7-day voyages and other interesting cruises, including…

  • Carnival Magic making its weekly 7-night trip from Galveston.  This week it’s a tour of the western Caribbean, sometimes it’s to the Bahamas;
  • Royal Caribbean’s Explorer of the Seas is departing from Cape Liberty (located within sight of the Statue of Liberty in Bayonne, New Jersey) for a 7-night cruise to Bermuda.  Explorer of the Seas is scheduled to remain in New Jersey until next November, also making 5-night trips to Bermuda and 9-night cruises to the eastern Caribbean;
  • ms Statendam leaves Vancouver today on a 5-day cruise to San Diego.  And a 35-day cruise to San Diego.  And a 66-day cruise to San Diego.  Option #1 is a straight trip down the Pacific coast.  Option #2 adds on a month visiting all the interesting islands of the Pacific (really, all of them).  Option #3 adds another month touring Mexico and Central America.  Just depends on how many times you want to visit San Diego.  And how much cash and time you have to spare.

Looking ahead five months from today:  You can celebrate leap year on one of the 31 cruises scheduled to depart on Saturday, February 29, 2014.

Today’s Cruises – September 15, 2013

There are 30 cruise ships starting cruises today, including departures from…

Looking ahead:  Six months until Tax Day in the U.S: Plan to celebrate with one of the 10 cruises scheduled for April 15, 2014 – maybe blow your refund on a 29-night cruise from San Diego to Tahiti?
