Oceania Cruises – Oceania Vista a penthouse at sea, all American style

I had been working in cruise sales for years, selling everything from big family ships to small river boats, to my own clients and to travel agents, but this trip gave me a first, my first time sailing on Oceania Vista, and my first real taste of true luxury cruising in the United States. This was also an inaugural sailing, just three nights, from Los Angeles down to Mexico....

Royal Caribbean – Mariner of the Seas – The ship that became my second home

I was already working in cruise sales, promoting ships just like her to my own clients and to travel agents across the region, but Mariner of the Seas was the first cruise ship that big I had ever seen in person. I met her for the first time in 2011, the year she first sailed into Singapore after a long journey from her home port in Barcelona....

Viking Yidun: Our Little Villa on the Water, Home for Christmas

December always brings a certain mood, the kind that makes you start counting down to the new year, and that year, I finally sailed on Viking Yidun myself, just ten days before Christmas. I had been selling Viking cruises to my own clients and to travel agents for months, running special promotions for the exact same Christmas and New Year sailings, so stepping onboard for the first time felt strange in a good way, like finally meeting someone I had been talking about for a long time....

Uniworld – S.S. Antoinette A Small Ship, and Big Experience

For years, I worked in cruise sales, promoting everything from massive ocean ships to small river boats, to clients and travel agents alike, but I always assumed the big ships were the real deal. A “small ship,” to me, sounded like less, fewer restaurants, fewer shows, fewer reasons to feel like you were on a proper holiday, the kind of cruise I imagined for people who simply did not know better....

There’s nothing quite like it! One day you’re in one country, and the next morning you wake up in a whole new paradise—without ever having to pack your bag twice. 🚢✨ Where is your dream cruise destination? #cruiselover by @ltbcruises

Oceania cruises offers some of the best perks! 🌟

1️⃣ Reserve the Culinary Center hands-on cooking classes early. Oceania is famous for having the best cuisine at sea. Their state-of-the-art cooking school features individual cooking stations equipped with induction cooktops, but classes fill up long before sailing.

2️⃣ Combine specialty restaurants without extra cover charges. Unlike mainstream lines that charge $50–$100 per person for specialty venues like Polo Grill or Red Ginger, Oceania includes dining at all specialty venues in the base fare—just be sure to reserve your table slots in the online portal prior to sailing.

Silversea lovers, come to the front! 😊🚢

Here are some cruise tips worth keeping in mind:

1️⃣ Silversea includes complimentary unlimited caviar across the entire fleet. Have your butler set up a white-glove caviar and champagne spread on your private veranda at sunset.

2️⃣ Tap into S.A.L.T. (Sea and Land Taste) BEFORE landing in port. On Silversea’s newer ships, the S.A.L.T. Lab offers free cooking classes based on your next destination. Take the class the day before to learn the local food history before you eat ashore.

3️⃣ Leverage included door-to-door private chauffeur transfers. Silversea’s standard fare includes private executive pickup from your home to the airport, removing transit stress before your flight even departs.

These are the best Regent Seven Seas Cruise tips you’ll read today 🌟😎

1️⃣ Regent includes free, unlimited shore excursions in every port. The best small-group experiences (like private wine tastings or helicopter tours) open for booking 180 days prior for concierge suites and sell out quickly.

2️⃣ Send your clothes to the included valet laundry on day two. Unlimited pressings and laundry are built into the fare. Pack light and let the laundry team press your evening wear right after unpacking.

3️⃣ Order dinner course-by-course from Compass Rose to your suite. If you prefer a quiet night, the room service menu isn’t limited to basic items—you can order the full, fine-dining multi-course menu from the main restaurant delivered directly to your dining table. #cruises #cruiselife #regentsevenseascruise by @ltbcruises

Here’s what to know about Explora Journeys! 🚢

1️⃣ Explora offers a generous status match program. If you hold elite status with hotel programs like Hilton, Marriott, or airline programs, match it before booking to unlock free laundry service, suite upgrades, and onboard credits.

2️⃣ Skip the traditional buffet—dine at Emporium Marketplace. Explora replaced standard cruise buffets with 18 chef-led live cooking stations. Every dish (from oysters to sushi) is plated fresh to order to minimize food waste and maintain fine-dining quality.

3️⃣ Book the Ocean Wellness thermal suite on port days. Thermal spa access is included in your cruise fare, but it gets busy on sea days. Visit during a port afternoon for a completely private hydrotherapy experience. #cruise #cruiseaddict by @ltbcruises

Calling all the The Ritz-Carlton Yacht Collection lovers! 🔊

Here are some cruise tips that are worth keeping in mind:

1️⃣ Book S.E.A. before you board, but save the rest for day one. Specialty dining at S.E.A. (conceived by Michelin-starred chef Sven Elverfeld) fills up months in advance. However, venues like Talaát Nam open reservations on embarkation day—head straight to the maitre d’ as soon as you step on board.

2️⃣ Leave the tuxedo at home. Unlike traditional lines, Ritz-Carlton leans into “yacht casual”. High-end linen, dress sneakers, and dark denim are welcome in every dining room.

3️⃣Use your Suite Ambassador for off-the-menu requests. Instead of standard room stewards, you get a dedicated ambassador. Ask them to set up a private balcony breakfast or stock your suite’s bar with specific vintage wines.

4️⃣Take advantage of the marina deck at anchor. When the superyacht anchors in smaller ports, the drop-down marina platform opens directly into the ocean for paddleboarding, kayaking, and direct sea access.
