2008 is upon us and it’s now time to start thinking about your next cruise getaway. This year, many new ships will be hitting the high seas, new destinations will be visited and more exotic itineraries have been added. But what does this mean to you? If you love cruising or have ever considered a cruise vacation, then it means a lot.
This year’s number one, do not miss destination is without a doubt, Northern Europe. There are nearly ten cruise lines sailing throughout Scandinavia, Russia and Northern Europe this summer including the yet to be launched Carnival Splendor, which will sail a 12-night itinerary from Dover. Marvel at the beauty of the Norwegian Fjords and discover the Baltic capitals on a range of itineraries from 6 to 14 nights.
2008 will bring a number of new ships into service. In addition to the Carnival Splendor, cruisers will get to experience the MSC Poesia, the MSC Fantasia, Holland America’s Eurodam and the much anticipated Celebrity Solstice. These ships are bigger and better than ever, offering more public space, more balconies, more restaurants and lounges, and so much more.
Another trend in 2008 is an increase in cruising from the west coast. This year you’ll see more ships sailing from Los Angeles, San Diego and San Francisco then ever before. Disney will operate 7-day Mexican Riviera cruises all summer long aboard the Disney Magic, NCL is offering five consecutive cruises to Mexico and Princess is also bringing back their popular Mexican Riviera cruises in 2008.
Whether you decide to cruise popular and historical Northern Europe, experience the exotic charm of Mexico or simply kick back and relax on a tropical Caribbean cruise, 2008 is your year to set sail.
