Company's Own Destination Experts Share Their Inspiring Picks for "50 Essential Experiences" to be Revealed Weekly Over Coming Year
Princess Cruises launched a new blog that will reveal the top travel bucket list experiences recommended by the line's own well-traveled destination experts. "50 Essential Experiences: The Travel Bucket List" (See Below) will be gradually unveiled over the next year in a series of weekly posts, each authored by one of Princess' longest-serving shipboard and shore side employees.
The 50 selected experts -- each who have been with the company for more than 15 years and traveled thousands of sea and air miles visiting hundreds of countries, cities and sites -- will share one of their inspiring experiences chronicling their unique perspective of must-see travel spots around the globe. Each blog entry will be a personal story, and readers will also meet the expert through a "revealing" questionnaire.
"Few people have seen more of the world than Princess' own destination experts," said Jan Swartz, executive vice president for Princess Cruises. "And because they've been to so many destinations, they're often asked to recommend those �don't miss' experiences that people should be sure to put on their travel bucket list." Swartz emphasized that the blog is not just a list of places, but instead a list of experiences Princess hopes inspires others.
The experts featured in the blog will represent an array of departments and positions within Princess, including those in shore side positions such as itinerary planning, ship operations and marketing, along with those who sail aboard its ships such as captains, hotel managers and cruise directors. Their posts will gradually be revealed through September 2011.
Blog visitors will be encouraged to share their own essential experiences, and a different reader experience will be selected and showcased each week.
All of the destinations described in the blog will be ones that passengers can travel to aboard a Princess ship, and links will help readers discover how they, too, can embark on similar adventures.
