Cruise Profile

This Fall, I, along with some great friends, will be traveling on a Uniworld River Cruise ship and am very excited to see Europe's small towns while only unpacking once! For over 30 years, Uniworld has taken guests to the world's great rivers in Europe, Russia, China, and Egypt. They offer over 500 departures on more than 30 itineraries. Onboard expect an intimate, boutique hotel style experience. Retreat to lavishly appointed river view staterooms with hotel-style beds. Indulge in classic cuisine with a touch of modern elegance, and all along the way be waited on by English-speaking, professionally trained crew. Evening entertainment and insightful lectures provide further insights into the culture of the regions visited on your itinerary, and the all-inclusive shore excursions help you get the most out of each destination you visit.

Weekly Travel Specials, Week of July 6

Hi Everyone,
The Lansing State Journal reported this week that Lansing will have direct flights to Cancun beginning in late December. Apple Vacations will fly nonstop with their charter, USA3000. Right now they intend to fly in and out of Lansing on Sundays. I've done some investigating and the prices look good so if you are thinking of a week in the sunshine, of if you're starting to think about planning spring break, give me a call and I can get you some pricing. If this route proves profitable for Apple, it will also be a big plus for Lansing area consumers who will no longer have to drive to Detroit.

Azamara: This is an upscale cruise line. Azamara is offering a price guarantee and verandah staterooms at oceanview pricing for select Fall and Spring sailings.
Celebrity: Still room to sail to Alaska this year. 8/9 sailing, oceanview: $699 per person
