I've been a busy moose of late, and shortly there will be some new promo information going up on the site to announce some fantastic deals on some NEW and exciting itineraries and groups.
For example:
The first ever CruiseMates Group Cruise hosted by our very own Anne Campbell, on Windstar. Luxury aboard the motorized sailing vessel Wind Surf!!! Sail round trip from Barbabos for 7 days with Anne, beginning Jan. 8 /06
There's a Feb./06 sailing on the new Costa Magica coming up.
We're also working on a far east spring 14 night sailing Hong Kong to Osaka on HAL
A 7 night summer sailing from Seattle to Glacier Bay and Alaska on HAL
A fall England to the Med sailing on Radisson Voyager for 10 nights
A magnificently priced group cruise to Tahiti on the more intimate Tahitian Princess
And a 14 night fall westbound transatlantic sailing on the Celebrity Millennium coming up!!
And of course the info is already up for our CruiseMates New Year's Party of the Century, sailing Dec. 30/06.
2006 and 2007 are going to have some GREAT deals on interesting places and interesting ships to share on a CruiseMates Group Cruise!!!
Im with Carole... we want a group cruise out of Galveston or NO... there are a few nice ships down there u know... we just cant justify the airfare to Miami, orlanda, etc... when we can get to Galveston or NO so easily....
Kuki,
You have been one busy alces. <VBG> Many of these look really good. I like that you are doing some exotic cruises. A Windstar with Anne, another transatlantic and the far east on HAL. Not to mention the best one of all. The Cruise of the Century!!!!
Nice array of cruises; There's even a Radisson. I wonder if that lamb is really that good. I may have to find out.
Take care,
Mike(Who'll probably find out they are all on a month end) <VBG>

We actually just had a cruise out of Galveston this past Feb. I know the group had a great time, but people weren't exactly "glammering" to book it <G>
I would like to do another cruise out of NOLA sometime soon though!
September 6th isn't exactly fall. Its too early for us to work in so we will have to be satisfied with just the Sail of the Century. I like the variety you have selected, though.

Another vote for Galveston or New Orleans. If people weren't interested before, I think they are now! Please try it again, Kuki!

Mara... I don't even get to go on all these cruises, though I would certainly love to!!
Aside from writing feature articles and reviews for CruiseMates, it's my "job" (and pleasure) to research and put together the best packages and prices I can for the CruiseMates Group Cruise program. And as much fun as I have with it, alot of work goes into it!
If you ever decide to join one I'm sure you'll find out how much fun they are, and just how much work the hosts put in to make them so!
