| Cruising is a unique experience among vacation | | | | meal, type of bread that you like, coffee after dinner, |
| options. Unlike flying or driving to a vacation destination, | | | | etc...their main objectives will be to learn you and to |
| on a cruise getting there is half the fun! Once you get | | | | please you! After all, a portion of their pay--your |
| to the cruise terminal and board your ship, the work for | | | | tip--depends upon your satisfaction. |
| you is over...you don't have to worry about getting to | | | | Even your fellow cruisemates will become like a new |
| your vacation spot on time, the stress of travel, finding | | | | family. You'll begin to meet new people at dinner, at |
| hotels along the way, hunting decent spots to eat, | | | | shows, on excursions, and just around the ship in |
| etc...when you enter your ship, all you have to do for | | | | general. Then, as the days progress, you'll make |
| the next several days is exactly what you want to do! | | | | memories with those people through shared |
| Your food is provided (immediately once you board, all | | | | experiences. Before you know it, you'll find yourself |
| you can eat!), your lodging is provided, your | | | | walking around the ship, speaking to people you didn't |
| entertainment is provided...you won't have to worry or | | | | know a few days ago--like they're now old friends! As |

| a hospitality that will continue through your entire | | | | on the last night of your cruise, when you see your |
| voyage. Over the next few days, you'll feel like family | | | | dining room staff for likely the last time. As you bid |
| as you come to know your stateroom attendant, dining | | | | them your farewells, you'll realize that you're about to |
| room staff, and countless other ship staff. You'll find | | | | leave behind so many people that you had come to |
| that your dining room staff, including your Maitre d', | | | | think of as extended family. But you'll take away a |
| Head Waiter and Assistant Waiter, will begin to pick up | | | | lifetime of memories, and likely will be planning your |
| on your wants and desires at dinner, and you will no | | | | next voyage before your ship even makes it back to |
| longer have to ask for that certain drink with your | | | | home port! |
