Welcome Aboard the Love Boat

Let's get together this Fall for a great pre-Christmas cruise on the cruise line voted by the members of Cruise Critic as the most Romantic Cruise Line at Sea .  . . .  Princess.

Princess, as many of my older readers will recall, was the model for the popular television series, The Love Boat. Who can forget hearing the weekly announcement, “This Is Your Captain Speaking . . . Welcome Aboard the Love Boat, we're about to set a course for adventure and your mind on a new romance.”  I think America must have fallen in love  with Captain Merrill Stubing (Gavin MacLeod) and the rest of the cast. That show, probably more than any other single event started a love affair for cruising for many people. I can still hear my mom saying, "One of these days I'm going on that ship."  She never did but I have more than made up for it.

As a Princess Commodore I had the privilege of meeting Captain Stubing (he is a spokesman for Princess Cruise Line) at a meeting a few years ago. I assure you is in real life everything that made the "Captain" so appealing to the Love Boat" fans.

Well cruising and cruise ships have come a long way since the days that the officers of the old Pacific Princess sailed the waters off the California/Mexican Pacific coast. The original Pacific Princess is being dismantled for scrape in Turkey. But fear not, there is a bigger, more magnificent, more entertaining cruise ship in a port near you.
 

In fact, Texas Cruise and Travel (my Travel Agency) has space blocked out for our clients on to sailings of the Emerald Princess this Fall. These are especially designed for our friends and neighbors who live within driving distance of Houston, Texas.  As you know airfare can pretty much double the cost of a cruise and so if you live in Texas, Louisiana, Mississippi, Oklahoma or Arkansas we may just have your "Love Boat" awaiting your arrival at Houston's Bayport Cruise terminal.

Sunday, December 7, 2014 and December 14, 2014 Texas Cruise and Travel has space reserved aboard the magnificent Emerald Princes at special pricing available that will only be good for a limited time.  These cruises will be roundtrip out of Houston's Bayport Cruise Terminal near La Porte, Texas.  

First two days are "Sea Days" and on day three (Wednesday) we will arrive at Roatan, Honduras. On Thursday we will arrive at Belize City, Belize. On Friday we will visit Cozumel and then head back to USA. 
 

We have cabins reserved in every category. All prices are per person and based on double occupancy and DO NOT INCLUDE gratuities and transfers.  Deposit Due at Booking is 20% of cruise fare. If you need round trip transfers from airport to ship the cost is $48 per person.  All cabins can accomodate up to 4 persons. If you would like more information or to book space on oneof the two fabulous pre-Christmas cruises visit our event page on Facebook or email us at Texas Cruise and Travel.
