DEAR VALUED CUSTOMER:
Cruising today is all about choices. That’s why travelers, especially families traveling together, continue to look to cruise ships when planning their next vacation. Putting a fresh spin on a family vacation, and keeping everybody happy, can be challenging. But that’s nota problem when a family spends its vacation at sea. Cruise ships offer passengers plenty of choices – choices for toddlers, teens, adults,and seniors – and virtually everything is included in one low price. This year, more than ever, cruising remains a family’s absolute best vacation value. Not surprisingly, 2008 sailings are selling out quickly.
All of the major cruise lines make catering to families a priority, and today’s ships are chock-full of family-friendly features. Spectacular newWaterWorks aqua parks, featuring four-deck-high waterslides and beautiful resort-style pools, are now available on select Carnival “FunShips®.” Select Carnival ships also feature the all-new Seaside Theatre, a 12-foot-high by 22-foot-wide LED screen located poolside thatshows movies, sporting events, concerts, and more. Norwegian Cruise Line has added four-lane, mood-lit bowling alleys, Nintendo WiiTM
(on screens that are two stories tall) and flexible, inter-connecting cabins to select ships in its “Freestyle” fleet. Additional family-friendlyhighlights include the world’s only onboard surf park (the amazing FlowRider®) on select ships in the Royal Caribbean fleet, as well asother famous Royal Caribbean innovations like rock-climbing walls, ice skating rinks, full-size boxing rings, and cantilevered whirlpools.
There are lots of exciting new amenities geared towards parents and grandparents, too. Examples include the enormous new Cloud 9 Spa(aboard select Carnival ships), Bocce courts and a putting green on actual grass (debuting in December aboard Celebrity’s all-new Solstice),and upscale specialty restaurants serving everything from Japanese Teppanyaki and prime steaks to destination-specific regional fare (offerings vary from cruise line to cruise line). Several ships now feature dedicated spaces, including Carnival’s Serenity and Royal Caribbean’sSolarium, set aside exclusively for adult passengers looking to relax in a tranquil and luxurious environment.
On the following pages, you’ll find dozens of great deals on cruises the whole family will love. Inventory is disappearing fast, however, soyou'll want to book ASAP to secure the best available rates, dates, and staterooms. When you’re ready to reserve your sailing, please giveus a call 24/7 at 1-800-CRUISES or visit us online at www.cruisesonly.com. Our cruise experts are standing by to assist you.
Sincerely,
Jeffrey SherotaJeffrey Sherota, Senior Vice President, CruisesOnly®

Why buy from us? Here’s just a small sampling of what CruisesOnly customershave had to say about the exceptional levelof service they’ve received from our experts…
“All of the agents we worked with weregreat. I appreciated the personal phone callwe received when our itinerary changed. Imentioned the call to several people on ourcruise and they were surprised, so I recommended that they book with CruisesOnly in the future. Thanks for mybest cruise experience to date!”- Jessica J., CruisesOnly Customer (October 2007)
“I felt as though the best rates were available through CruiseOnly.com versusother websites. Our CruisesOnly representative was very attentive and responsive. She answered all of our questions in a prompt manner, and she suggested the Southern Caribbean cruise thatwe ended up taking – which was something we hadn’t considered on our own.”- Danielle S., CruisesOnly Customer (November 2007)
“We were extremely pleasedwith everything and we willbook with CruisesOnlyagain. Our agent was especially professional andcourteous. I had no problemusing your website, but Icalled with some questionsand went ahead and bookedover the phone because your
agent was so good. Please thank her!”- Linda T., CruisesOnly Customer (November 2007)
“Our agent booked a last-minute cruise for us. We had no idea she would actually upgrade us four or five cabin levels, and wegot a good deal on the cruise, too. Nice!”- Amanda H., CruisesOnly Customer (December 2007)
“I have traveled on many cruises before,and always made reservations directly withthe respective cruise line. This time, however, I decided to try CruisesOnly. It was an exceptional experience. Youragent spoke to both my husband and I for over three-and-half hours to help us select our cruise, and she was very informative and courteous. She never mademe feel as if she was rushing me, and I later found out she stayed on the phone with us long after it was time for her to go home for the day. She also madea point of advising the cruise line that this cruise was for my daughter’s birthdaycelebration, and she arranged a treat for her even though we hadn’t made anyspecial requests!”- Zuzel S., CruisesOnly Customer (April 2008)

Adecade ago, when your cruise shippulled into St. Thomas, your options ashore were shopping,
lounging at the beach, or snorkeling innearby St. John. Today’s Caribbean cruiseship passenger can choose between activities ranging from golf and natureexcursions to riding in high-speed jetboats along the coastline or joining thecrew of an ocean-racing yacht.
As the number of families and “activecruisers” setting sail has increased, cruiselines have begun offering a more intriguing selection of shore excursions,especially in the Caribbean. While youcan still take a tour of the Bacardi RumFactory in San Juan, there are also additional options like BioluminescenceBay kayak tours or rainforest hikes in ElYunque. From mountain biking in St. Martin to zipline canopy rides in Barbados, each Caribbean port offers passengers the chance to enjoy new experiences that enhance theirtravel experience.
Cruisers who aren’t seeking high-adrenalinadventures will also find Caribbean toursthat suit their interest. If golf is your passion, for example, it’s a cinch to tee offat some of the world’s top courses. Photographers can join local photographyexperts on excursions to places that offershutterbugs some of the region’s most
scenic shots. And nature lovers can enjoyisland flora via an off-road Land Rover expedition that also explores local culture,history, and folklore.
While the Caribbean is arguably best-known for its pristine beaches, cruiserstoday are being introduced to island activities they would never have been ableto experience in the past. After taking a whitewater rafting excursion in Costa Rica a few years ago, I became hooked on the sport – and continued to enjoy whitewater rafting after I’d returned home.A friend signed up for an intensive scubaprogram while cruising that resulted in her getting certified, and she indulges hernew-found passion and ability each timeshe returns to the Caribbean.
Multi-generational cruising, which continues to grow in popularity (especially in the Caribbean), is an
excellent opportunity for passengers to pick excursions that are either fun for the whole group or tailored to the interests of specific family members. Kids may choose a jet-boat ride, for example, while parents go kayaking orplay a round of golf. Grandparents mayopt for something more leisurely, like a4x4 tour of the island.
Cruising today is about choices – you canbe as active or as laid-back as you wish,especially when it comes to planning yourtime ashore. With a list of excursionsavailable that’s as long as your arm, youshould plan to try at least one activityyou’ve never experienced before duringyour next Caribbean cruise.

In increasing numbers, families are exploring the history, heritage,and cultural appeal of Europe aboard cruise ships. All of the majorcruise lines are reporting that the number of younger passengers
is growing each year, as is the number of families sailing with children. Multi-generational cruising in Europe – children, parents,and grandparents visiting the world’s most famous landmarks together – is also on the rise.
Alex Gaynor recently celebrated her tenth birthday on a cruise shipdocked in Mykonos, which will certainly be a memorable experience. Her mother, travel writer Luisa Frey Gaynor, decidedher daughter was old enough to appreciate what she’d be seeing during a full day of touring.
“I’m a big proponent of learning outside the classroom,” Luisa says.“I can’t think of a better way to bring history and culture to life forkids than by taking them to Europe. Cruising in Europe is a perfectway to see the sites because you have all the kid comforts, such asyouth programs and kids’ menus, plus full-day tours of attractions inso many countries.”
Teens studying the history of Ancient Greece or Rome, for example,will find that a visit to the Parthenon, the Coliseum, or Pompeii’sruins leaves an indelible mark. As Gaynor points out, “The best partof taking your children to Europe via cruise ship is how that historycomes alive in a way they’ve never experienced before.”
Cruise lines are also accommodating families by rescheduling children’s shipboard activities so that they’re available before toursdepart. In some ports of call, younger children can stay onboard theship while their parents take teens ashore for an entire day. Popularfamily excursions include full-day visits to Rome and Florence, aswell as tours that focus on the ancient attractions of Turkey andGreece. Mediterranean itineraries present an opportunity for families to alternate between an intensive day of sightseeing and arelaxing day spent at the beach.

Increasingly, cruise lines are offering new shore excursions specifically targeted at families. In Istanbul, for example, familiescan enjoy a private yacht tour along the Bosphorus featuring stopsat the Blue Mosque, a trip to a Turkish teahouse, and a shopping excursion at the Grand Bazaar. Cruise lines are also combining visits to major sightseeing attractions with a few hours at the beachin ports of call like Naples and Kusadasi.
While most families choose to cruise the Mediterranean (because thereare so many recognizable sites along the way), other European destinations are growing in popularity. Itineraries that include an overnight stay in a major port of call, such as Dublin or St. Petersburg, offer families the chance to combine visits to important historical landmarks with unique recreational activities.When families return to their ship after a fun day ashore, children willhave lots to share with new-found friends at the vessel’s youth facility.
And while it’s wonderful to see the world’s best-known attractions,it’s also comforting to come back to great food and a good night’ssleep in the same bed. There are many advantages to cruising Europe with children, but the biggest may involve not having tochange hotels, adjust to new food, pack and unpack, or coordinatetransportation from one city to another. No matter where you’reheaded, cruises take the stress out of travel – which is especially important when the kids are in tow.
