A message from Vicki:

There are holidays coming up that I guarantee kids around the country are counting down the days to - Spring Break and summer. I know my three children certainly are! This is the time to sell cruises to your clients. They're making family vacation plans right now.

With two kids in their twenties and one that's thirteen, I understand how choosing one vacation for everyone seems challenging. That's why I love cruises! In March and April we've got great deals to the Caribbean, including onboard credit offers. These fun-in-the-sun sailings make the perfect getaway for kids of all ages.

And, for a limited time we're offering an incredible rate to Alaska - one of our most majestic, family-bonding destinations. For just $1,999 a family of four can sail aside glaciers on any of our June, July or August itineraries! For the adventurous, receive up to $200 onboard credit with an Alaska cruisetour. We also reduced cruisetour pricing 30% on Radiance of the Seas®! I'm excited because we've never made family-targeted pricing like this before!

At these prices there's never been a better time to vacation with the entire family. Journey to the isle of smiles in the Caribbean or embark on an once-in-a-lifetime adventure to our 49th State - Alaska, one of America's most exotic destinations.

This is one vacation where your clients won't hear the words "are we there yet?"

  I was ecstatic about returning to my hometown of Los Angeles this month. Not just to reconnect with old friends and family, but also to attend Common Ground and celebrate the arrival of L.A.'s newest star - Royal Caribbean's Mariner of the Seas®, the most innovative ship sailing Western waters.

Sailing a 7-night Mexican Riviera itinerary, the superior hardware and onboard amenities of this ship blows the competition out of the water! Ice-skating rink, rock-climbing wall, mini-golf course, Adventure Ocean® youth program, day spa, full-size basketball court and the Royal Promenade - a bustling onboard boulevard lined with shops and cafes! In fact, while onboard I really spent too much time visiting my two boyfriends - Ben & Jerry®! I was a regular at Seattle's Best Coffee® too.

I really could go on and on! You have to experience it for yourselves. There truly is no ship like Mariner... and there really is no place like home. Thank you to all my old friends who welcomed me with open arms. It was good to be back.
