Cruising - the ultimate boomer vacation

Cruising used to be such an elitist
experience that only two percent of
North Americans has ever been on
a passenger ship. The change
began around 1970 when cruising
re-invented itself in the image of the
younger, broader crowd.

Current marketing techniques
are convincing an ever-growing
portion of the travelling
public that what it
really wants is not
merely travel but
a "vacation experience”

which happens to float.

Almost every survey shows
cruising to be by far the fastest
growing segment of the travel
industry. A boom fed by a
generation approaching middle
age, Is ready to get as serious
about vacationing as
it was about career
grooming and child
rearing in the 80s.
Aren’t you glad it’s no
longer just for the
"rich and famous.”

unpleasant extra cost
surprises by reading the
fine print in the brchures or
ask your travel consultant
what is included in the
advertised cost. Here are
some important things to
consider:

e Find out what the
taxes/services charges
are. This extra cost can be
substantial. For example,
some Mexican Hotels can
add 27% or more to your

coverage to protect
yourself.

e Are the prices
guaranteed once you've
paid your deposit and/or
final payment?

reputable tour companies.
