- Know The Information About Safe Cruising
By: aidentelfer | - You can also save money by booking late in the season, even a up to a few weeks before the ship is scheduled to leave port.

- Can Vacationers Enjoy Sensational Savings When They Book A Repositioning Cruise Holiday?

- Cruising Is The Best Holiday You Can Have!
By: Michael Klerck | - I remember well the Union Castle Line mail ships that ploughed South African waters in the sixties. A short trip to Port Elizabeth or Durban was a regular event in those days.

In the early seventies when the airplane became the hip form of transport, I watched sadly as many large liners disappeared from the horizon. Everyone wa ...
