NCL to give details on 2 New Ships!

Welcome everyone! You might not have known this but NCL ordered 2, 143,500-ton, 4,000+ passenger ships in October. Ordered to be made in Germany's Meyer Werft ship yard, the ships are supposed to be delivered by 2013, and 2014. (Photo by: Lawrence from Furious Photographers) There haven't been any major announcements yet and no one really knows anything about this project except for the gross tonnage, passenger capacity, where it's being built, expected delivery dates, it's $1.7 billion USD deal, and it's name "Project Breakaway." That will all change in a couple of days. On Tuesday, June 21, 2011, NCL will reveal some new details on the project and we can only hope (cross your fingers)  to get some graphics of what...

Voyager of the Seas to be based in China!

Welcome everyone! Remember my post a while back that mentioned China and how I think that it will start to become a popular cruise destination similar to Europe? Well with today's announcement, we might be one step closer with game-changer Voyager of the Seas to be based in China in the summer of 2012. The once largest ship in the world when introduced in 1999 will be based in Shanghai, China as Royal Caribbean try's to expand in the country. The 138,000 ton, 3,114 passenger ship currently sails in Europe and was scheduled to in 2012 but the change comes as RCI's CEO Adam Goldstein says, "There are clear opportunities in the China market."

U.S. Customs Nightmare for Cruise Passengers

Welcome everyone! For P&O passengers aboard the P&O Arcadia, it was "Like arriving at Guantanamo Bay," according to the Daily Mail. News giant " The Telegraph ", reports that passengers arriving in Los Angeles during a two-and-a-half month cruise from the UK to Alaska were put through extensive, passenger-by-passenger security check points that included fingerprinting, retinal scans and verbal questioning. It was uncomfortable and reached up to a seven-hour event that delayed the departure of the ship. People had to stand for long periods of time and did not have access to bathroom facilities, food and or water. You might question why I have mentioned news about a popular British cruise line when this is supposed...

The 3,114 passenger ship boasts 1,021 ft (longer than Carnival's...
