Cruising with the Cool Set |
|
Cruising has cruised effortlessly back into fashion as the younger generation and clued-up traveller is attracted to the new cruising experience. Cruising has had a traditional image - one that perhaps caters to the older market. It was seen as the ultimate romantic trip, a place where lovers fell for each other on the open seas as the sun set. Cruising was awash with sophistication. And as such cruising became popular with travellers of a certain age looking for a relaxed break. But although the silver cruising market is still very much the backbone of the cruising industry, cruising is sailing into some new horizons as it caters for the younger, more travel savvy customer. Cruising into a New HorizonCruising is now cool. The formal cocktail dresses and dinner on the captain's table has given way to state-of-the-art gyms and health spas, celebrity chef run restaurants and activity itineraries that include diving, kayaking and abseiling. The cruising industry has also introduced theme holidays and ships - whereas before on-board activities included a traditional Vegas-style show, now passengers can opt to learn how to juggle or fly the trapeze and indulge in onboard activities such as paddle tennis, wall climbing or ice rinks. Cruising Industry Caters for YoungThe cruising industry has successfully re-defined the cruising experience for a new generation of travellers. As well as young travellers, many young families are seeing the benefits of cruising: having a vast amount of on-board entertainment at hand in a safe, enclosed environment can be many young parent's idea of heaven. Cruising facilities often include all-day activity clubs while the parents enjoy the spas and sun. Cruising Back into FashionAs well as families, young single travellers are realising cruising offers a chance to meet like-minded people on-board or through organised activities. Some cruising companies offer singles cocktail parties, single cabins, share programmes and single themes. Cruising is a great way for old friends to catch up - with no driving, organising or hassle singletons are realising cruising offers the perfect party opportunity with on-board spa facilities to recover with the next day. Cruising is also becoming a popular venue for weddings offering a floating hotel for guests, the chance to visit offbeat or romantic places with the comfort of a cruise. Unlike flying, cruising allows you to enjoy the act of travelling. And during the chill out sea-time, it's a chance to completely switch off and enjoy your time in luxury and comfort. It's the perfect alternative for those who know it's the journey, not just the destination, that counts. Looking for a Cruise Holiday?
