The new ships keep coming! Holland America floating out of its newest vessel, the “Nieuw Amsterdam” at a shipyard in Italy last week. From this video simulation this ship looks great! She will first sail in the summer of 2010.
Here’s a cool video from Royal Caribbean about their new Oasis of the Seas, the largest cruise ship afloat, barely making it under a bridge on her maiden voyage.
Disney yesterday announced details on the first of their two new ships – the Disney Dream. The Disney Dream will sail 3,4, and 5 night Bahamas cruises from Port Canaveral, Florida starting January 26, 2011. We are already receiving a number of requests for Disney Dream reservations from our clients. This new addition to the Disney Cruise family is sure to be popular!
“Our favorite restaurant on any cruise ship is Palo on the Disney Cruise. We were one of the fortunate 100 passengers (out of 2700) to eat brunch at Palo on our October 2008 cruise. Here is our waiter Zoron from Bosnia describing to us the many food choices available. I loved the shrimp, Margaretta Pizza, my main entrée Chicken Parmesan, and other delicacies. There was so much food to choose from!”
We recently chatted with Carolyn Szekeres from Princess Cruises about Alaska and what Princess offers in general.
“Here’s the Disney Magic docked at Tortola…this was our favorite port! We took the island tour and had a blast!!! We went all over the island and then to Cane Garden Bay. This was awesome!! “

Last summer I took an Avalon River Cruise on the Danube through parts of Hungary, Austria and Germany. It was a fantastic trip! Tim was fortunate to have sailed with a river cruise “expert” on that voyage – Kathleen Kavanagh from Globus. We recently talked with Kathleen about river cruising and what’s new with Avalon Waterways.
We are so looking forward to the debut of Royal Caribbean’s Oasis of the Seas later this year! The Oasis will be the largest passenger ship afloat and will have many unique features – such as the Aqua Outdoor Theatre pictured to the left.
There’s an exciting new cruise ship coming to Port Canaveral, Florida! Later this year will be the home port for the 130,000 ton Carnival Dream. She will be sailing 7 night Caribbean sailings with lots of features – an expanded spa, family staterooms that can hold 5 people, and much more.
“This is a picture of my daughter from our September 08 Royal Caribbean cruise (the one that you helped me get the suite for!!!) We SO loved the crew on the Enchantment of the Seas. They truly entered our hearts more so than even our Disney cruises. We also took the Tulum and Beach Break tour on this cruise – fantastic!”
