It is a business, and when you owe money, you are at the mercy of your creditors if you can't make the payments. - Tom
All part of Klaus Schwab’s promise that by 2030 none of us will own anything and we will be happy because we will all be dead.
The Points Guy has a good website. American Airlines is suing him because he has an ap to manage AA miles. AA should consider it a perk but apparently they don’t. They need a new PR department.
Carnival sent out Emails about their continuing ‘protocols’ today...
The jabbed rules will continue for cruises in “April and beyond” that includes all of my cruises for 22 and 23 ...
In their website they updated today to include the exemptions will continue until Dec 2022

My next cruise is in May so that will come under their “and onward”
They also backed the final date for cancelling 22 cruises from Dec 31 to Feb 15 which makes it harder to decide what to do ...
Well, one reason he might have like it so much was that it was costing them $150 to deliver service that he was paying $100 for.
Crystal Cruises are very expensive, out of reach for the vast majority of people who want to go on a cruise.
Service is obviously world class, and they charge for it. They know that their market is limited, but there are/were enough people willing to pay for it.
He has sailed on FORTY cruise brands? He didn’t say how many actual cruises he’s been on. It must be his profession to go cruising. Maybe he’s a secret shopper.
I’ve been on zero cruises on zero cruise brands. It seems I’ve got some catching up to do.
If we enter into a deflationary economy.
The tourist industry will get butchered, they rely on disposable income from customers. In a deflationary environment(tight money) customers have less income for non essential businesses like cruise ships.
Plus their customer base is old, eventually old people die, which means no more cruise vacation for the dead person.
Crystal sounds very nice. What a shame.
“Good journalists are supposed to be impartial...”
Lost me right there Hoss as I haven’t seen more than one in my lifetime and wouldn’t exactly know what one looks like anyway. They are hired to represent whoever signs their paycheck. That’s all they are in the business for. If you don’t pay them, they will be gone so fast it was suck all the air out of your office when they depart. Only one I think was close was Rush. But he was also an entertainer and conformed to the conservative platform.

You mean to say that Crystal Cruises gave this guy a cappuccino without him ordering it?? Oh my. What unparalleled luxury and service. Once or twice I’ve had iHop bring me a cup of coffee without me ordering it, so I’m not totally unfamiliar with this sort of thing.
“Why I’ll be devastated if this luxury travel brand is gone for good”
i imagine guys like that don’t get too devastated over things like building materials and skilled labor being unavailable to rebuild over one thousand houses that burned to the ground in the Marshall fire in Colorado a few weeks ago, or the fact that only two thousand dwellings are for sale on Colorado’s Front Range from Castle Rock to Fort Collins, thus freezing Colorado’s residential real estate market because no one can buy anything else if they sell [thank you very much Dementia Joe] ... but loss of a SINGLE luxury cruise outfit is indeed devastating ...
Why can’t the cruise ships use the 18th century English legal doctrine of impressment to fill their ships with passengers?
It's pretty hard to find one of those these days. See Tagline.
We were supposed to be on one from Amsterdam to Basel with Celebrity cruises bookended.....we had to cancel them also....sniff.
This is the style of service AI computers are best at... imitating the moves of a gracious insightful fawning human.
