Did you know…<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

That Carnival<\/a> is the only cruise line with two ships, year-round, operating from New Orleans<\/a>? The city invested $2.3 million renovating and expanding the Erato Street Cruise Terminal, including swapping gangways with the Julia Street Terminal to make embarkation and embarkation easier for a greater volume of passengers. Guess which terminal is home to Carnival's two ships, the Dream<\/a> and the Elation<\/a>?<\/span><\/p>\n

That Windstar<\/a> will have a "Private Event" on next year's itineraries designed to connect guests <\/span>\"Florida<\/a>with local culture, and that they're free? All that's being said about identifying the Private Events is that they "include dinner under the stars in the magnificent Celsus Library of Ephesus<\/a>" and "dining on the beach of a private motu in Bora Bora<\/a>."<\/span><\/p>\n

That whoever booked the Norwegian<\/a> for a promotion featuring the country duo Florida Georgia Line<\/a> missed the boat? The group's big hit is called "Cruise" and rather than calling the 5-day trip from Miami<\/a> on the Pearl<\/a> the "Cruise Cruise" it's being promoted as the first-ever "Florida Georgia Line This Is How We Cruise." Now there's a mouthful…<\/span><\/p>\n

That Carnival's new program for kids — called Camp Ocean<\/i> — was the result of recommendations of experts in child education, children's media and "play" and that the end result is more than 200 new activities based on marine education for ages 2 to 11? The names of some of the activities are Sea Creature Discovery, Marine Life Trivia <\/i>and Create a Penguin from Oreos<\/i>. One expert on the panel…a loyal customer who's a mother of two.<\/span><\/p>\n
