replying to @CruiseNorwegian @CruiseNorwegian Ahhh- it was a trick question! Man I failed. But you’re right, it’s nice to have both land and sea days in your vacation plans :) #travelskills

A6: Love port calls because for me the destinations are what a great cruise is all about # NorwegianEncore #TravelSkills


A5. Best tip to save money on cruises: don't sign up for excursions. Go to town & walk around. Talk to locals to find good places to eat (less expensive than tourist trips). Take a cab to an excursion location and enjoy just relaxing & taking it all in. #TravelSkills

6 months ago I would have said I prefered "port calls" over days at sea. Then @cruisebusiness and I did a magical three week cruise around South Africa and up the west coast of the continent. There were 8 sea days in a row and we had a blast. #Travelskills #cruisecritic #cruise https://t.co/Qcs5WWWJCV


A6. Port calls or sea days? Cruises are a great way to sample places; get a taste and maybe go back for a longer visit in the future. #travelskills #travel #cruises


A6 I love port calls! Gotta get out and explore the world. There's nothing like waking up in a new place everyday! #TravelSkills #NorwegianEncore


Q6: Days at sea are terrific. Gives #cruise passengers time to relax, experience their ship. Poor quality ports turn into sea days as you can have ship to yourself. Good mixture of both can make or break a trip so choose wisely! #TravelSkills https://t.co/RZInlwe47f

Thanks, and great tips. Also learned the hard way about top of head getting sunburned. No fun when it peels. Yuck. LOL. #TravelSkills https://t.co/LZqsqNxmN6

replying to @JohnnyJet @JohnnyJet @CruiseNorwegian Yes. Yes. Yes. To every single pic. And you’re right, stay on board on port days for also cheaper spa packages! #TravelSkills #NorwegianEncore

replying to @WAVEJourney @WAVEJourney I had a ball with a group of 10 friends on an SF-Vancouver 3 day, 2 night cruise on a ship ultimately destined for Alaska #TravelSkills

I ❤️ a mix of ship 🛳 time 🌊🌌🔭📚🎭🛁 and port calls 📍📍📍 on a cruise 🚢 - it’s the charm of #cruises! 💫 #NorwegianEncore #TravelSkills A6 #travel


A5. Book with a Travel Advisor! (full disclosure – I’m a travel advisor! Lol!) But, seriously, we can add value to your cruise and saving you time in the booking process! #TravelSkills

Itineraries on @CruiseNorwegian’s new #NorwegianEncore will visit Central America (Honduras, Belize…), Mexico (Cozumel, Costa Maya…), Caribbean islands (in the U.S. and British Virgin Islands, Puerto Rico…), and Bermuda. See more here: https://t.co/FrbjnLMcY1 #TravelSkills

replying to @cjmcginnis @cjmcginnis I like a healthy balance of both. Obviously, I want to see as many new places as I can when traveling but downtime is good too and sea days can be nice and relaxing. Love to find a beautiful common area with ocean views, a good book and an even better drink! #TravelSkills

replying to @TravelEsquire @TravelEsquire emoji-mania! Tells a great story. Thanks for joining today, Glen! #TravelSkills

replying to @Heather_Poole @Heather_Poole A5. Even better, choose an all-inclusive cruise where you have a choice of shore excursions and all are included. #TravelSkills

A6. Love a good mix of both sea days and ports of call on an itinerary. It's great to relax and enjoy the ship between pounding the pavement in ports. #TravelSkills https://t.co/sbPvtPVyUf

replying to @CruiseNorwegian @CruiseNorwegian A7 Good food! If the food quality is good, then I’m a happy cruiser! #TravelSkills

replying to @nataliediscala @nataliediscala I can just see you wrapped up in a warm blanket on a cold, windy deck with a novel and a hot buttered rum, grinning :) #TravelSkills

replying to @CruiseNorwegian @CruiseNorwegian A7 Hmmm…If I have work to do it’s strong and inexpensive Wi-Fi. If not, then it’s a good ice cream shop or a secluded pool. #TravelSkills


A6. Can I say both? I love being at sea, but I’m also all about the destinations! #TravelSkills

A7. Most important feature or amenity? That you shouldn't have to walk for more than 3 mins. to find another bar. It's important to have standards. ;-) #travelskills #travel #cruises


replying to @JohnnyJet @JohnnyJet A7 free spa like on @viking. So nice. #travel #travelskills

replying to @JohnnyJet @JohnnyJet A7: We always try to book a room with a balcony. It’s a great way to make your state room seem bigger & you can get a nice ocean breeze in too! #TravelSkills

How wonderful. Can we be your friends on the next one? ;) #TravelSkills https://t.co/SbRkBeJQuJ

replying to @cjmcginnis @cjmcginnis A6: honestly I prefer a balance. I love seeing beautiful new locations...but I also enjoy cruising and relaxing 😎 @CruiseNorwegian #NorwegianEncore #TravelSkills


replying to @CruiseNorwegian @CruiseNorwegian TIP Walk around the whole ship on day 1 so you know exactly what the ship has to offer. I’ve been on cruises where I didn’t discover the coolest feature until the last day. #TravelSkills

replying to @CruiseNorwegian @CruiseNorwegian TIP Be sure to ask about below-deck or behind-the-scenes tours of off-limits places like the engine room, kitchens or captain’s bridge. #TravelSkills

replying to @cjmcginnis @cjmcginnis Haha no! Check this out ... this globe marked our entry into the Arctic Circle. #TravelSkills


A5: Saving $$ Cruising: carry your own travel insulated water bottle…simply refill it; quite honestly, more variety & smaller group excursions off w/3rd party providers; usually book based on the variety & time at ports but deals with perks (wifi, paid tips) best

A7: Since most meals are eaten onboard that’s a very important feature for me #travelskills


A7. Most important feature for us = all about the dining options! Bring on the specialty restaurants. #TravelSkills https://t.co/k5GYnAHwtv

A7 One of the most important features on any cruise ship -- being able to rub elbows with #travel celebrities! It's @JohnnyJet during the official launch of the @MSCCruisesUSA Seaside! @Travelzoo #travelskills


A6. When it comes to cruising, I prefer lots of port calls. Not a fan of long days at sea. I'm sure on more luxurious cruises it doesn't matter if you have 2-3 days in a row without land in sight. But then you have to dress up more, which means pack more clothes. #TravelSkills
