We Listen, Then Find Your Perfect Trip Chat with us over the phone and tell them about your dream vacation. We’ll take notes and then dig deep to find the cruise line, accommodations and trip itinerary that will best match how you want to travel.

Planning with us is far different than dealing with one of those vacation call centers or giant trip-booking websites. We keep it personal every step of the way.

Insider Deals Not Available Anywhere Else Often, we can uncover a better rate than if you were to book directly with the cruise line. How is that possible? Because as one of the largest travel agencies in the world, we have massive purchasing power that allows us to secure trips at low prices. Think of it like buying bulk in the supermarket – only with cruise tickets instead of trail mix.

The end result: you get the lowest price possible on any vacation you book with us. And if you’re still not convinced, check out our Price & Satisfaction Guarantee on our website.

Need Advice While Traveling? Call Us We keep working for you even after your trip has been booked. So if the unexpected happens, such as a sudden flight cancellation, we’ll quickly readjust your travel plans so your trip stays on track.

Some of our past customers have said that just knowing they had a travel expert in their corner made it easier to relax while on vacation. Peace of mind is a beautiful thing.

If you’re ready to start planning your perfect getaway, take a look at our latest special offers found in this brochure and give us a call.

YOU MAY BE CLOSER TO

LUXURY CRUISING

THAN YOU THINK...

When you consider the all-inclusive benefits and perks that a luxury cruise offers, you may be very surprised by the savings compared to the cost of a premium cruise with added extras.

Cruisers know about the benefits of luxury cruising such as the higher level of service, the more intimate environment, the extra attention to detail.

But, many don’t know about the cost saving benefits when compared to contemporary or premium cruise lines. Luxury lines often include the perks that other cruise lines charge extra for.

So you don’t have to worry about spending extra on gratuities, alcoholic beverages, airfare and even specialty dining. When you add up all these extras, the cost of a luxury cruise can be equal to or, and in many cases, less than other cruise packages.

3 Fantastic Reasons

to Make a New Year’s Resolution to Travel

Pledging to travel more often is one of the most common New Year’s resolutions. But they’re also among the toughest to keep. Life gets busy and that commitment you made to experience the world just seems to drop off your schedule.

We suspect more people would maintain their commitment to travel if they knew about some of the real benefits of a cruise or resort stay.

Because in a way, deciding to travel more in 2015 is almost like making three New Year’s resolutions in one. Here’s what we mean by that:

Traveling strengthens the family bond

Traveling teaches you something new

Spending more time with the family is a very popular New Year’s resolution. After all, who doesn’t want to have a stronger relationship with the ones they love?

Did you make a New Year’s resolution to learn something new in 2014? If so, you probably weren’t the only one.

Traveling offers the perfect way to fulfil that goal. When you’re exploring an exciting new place together, all the new experiences you will have brings you closer as a family.

You’re far removed from your everyday routine, which means you get to see a different (often livelier) side of your children or spouse. As an added bonus, most families say they eat at least twice as many meals together while on a trip.

And everyone knows how important it is to come together for dinner.

People are always looking to improve themselves and broaden their horizons.

And indulging with a trip is one of the best ways to do this.

Simply being in a different country will boost your knowledge and cultural awareness.

Imagine chatting with local vendors at a colourful Caribbean market, touring ancient Mayan ruins or marvelling at immaculate Georgian architecture.

From visiting museums to savouring authentic cuisine, all of these activities allow you to learn from the experience.

Bottom line: travel makes you smarter.

2014 Fall VConn Template 4.indd 24

10/14/14 4:50 PM

Traveling improves your wellbeing From losing weight to hitting the gym, health-related goals dominant New Year’s resolutions.

Yet many people underestimate just how much taking a trip can help both your physical and mental wellbeing. When you travel, you’re able to really relax by putting aside your daily responsibilities and just focusing on yourself and your family.

The result is enjoying a rare chance to recharge your batteries. Not only will you feel more refreshed when you return home, you will also be more productive at your job.

And there are also plenty of ways to stay active while on vacation too. Many cruise ships are equipped with swimming pools, rope courses and other amenities that will get your pulse racing. Shore excursions may include a walking tour or hike while tropical resorts offer fitness programs and gyms to get you moving.

So if you haven’t yet settled on your goal for 2015, keep travel at the top of your list. For so many reasons, this is one resolution you’ll definitely want to keep.

A sure-fire way to stick to your travel resolution…

Book a vacation for 2015 today to guarantee you’ll meet your New Year’s resolution goal to travel.

Plus, you can take advantage of limited-time offers that won’t be available throughout the year. And travellers always get access to huge savings when they book a trip in advance.
