I was recently offered the opportunity to sail in the Carnival Pride for a week to the Bahamas. Carnival is asking travel agents to promote their brand by inviting them to cruise as a passenger instead of a travel agent (which we typically do for training). This would enable us to experience the cruise as […]

I like Port Everglades a lot for cruises because it is so easy to get around in town and to the ships themselves. Taxis are easy to get

Today was Maui, which I was really looking forward to since one of my co-workers had lived there and talked about its beauty. We hit the buffet, and yes, it was Walmart on sale! Like everyone else, we wanted to eat and get off the ship so we could start exploring. We had rented a
