Why cruises continue to be popular

"No fly" vacations involving cruising continue to rise in popularity because of these factors.  They are:

1. There are 29 North American ports. Without flight expenses, couples or families can save their money for spa treatments, shore excursions and also skip the tribulations of checking airline bags.

2. Travelers leaving directly from home to go to the pier don’t have to wait for transfers to the airport or be afraid they might miss flights (not to mention cancellations).

3. Leaving from close to home means no hotels, avoiding the expense and time spent checking in and out. Cruisers’ first "check-in" is on the boat.

4. Only short notice is needed to book a cruise and there are choices of cruises as short as three days.

5. Not flying reduces carbon footprints, which is appreciated by the environmentally-concerned.

6. Where once cruises were strictly aimed at couples and the older generation, the market has evolved, and now more families choose to take to the seas for their vacation.

Combine that with an eco-conscious cruise, and you’ve got a cost effective family vacation you can truly feel good about.
