82% OF CRUISERS LIKELY TO BOOK A
CRUISE AS THEIR NEXT VACATION


This number will probably change drastically in the near future.[/color

This number will definitely change, for the balance of this year. The WHO has stopped short of calling it a pandemic, so far.

Cruising Tips Chatter / Re: What to know when considering spa treatments

"The facilities are so popular that treatments sometimes book up the day of embarkation, which is why experienced spa-goers rush to register for treatments when they board, even before going to see their cabins."

The article makes it seem as if  people flock to book spa treatments because they are a phenomenal experience.
The reality is that spa sessions, are in demand for "sea days" when you are stuck on the ship. Same thing can be said for
speciality restaurants and other shipboard activities.
Far fewer people care about these 'offerings' when in a port of call.
And yes, these spa treatments are excessively overpriced. As an indulgence, great, but not
as a value.

Would that be the syrup - derived coffee, or fresh ground?

ROME (AP) -- The captain of the Costa Concordia cruise ship, which went aground off the coast of Italy more than a year ago, says he's not frightened by the prospect of going to prison.

Well now, that should make us all feel better.

34 souls... I hope he is compelled to address the families.
