New York City, New York
Welcome to "Skyscraper National
Park," as Kurt Vonnegut dubbed
this amazing city. New York is
so much a part of the world's
imagination, you may think
you've got the city pegged even
if you've never been there! New
York still holds a myriad of
additional surprises - there's
always something exciting around
the next corner. It's a
captivating, awesome, varied and
glamorous empire.
New York remains the city by
which all other cities are
judged. You have to see it to
believe it and even then you
might find it difficult to
believe your eyes!
The city comprises the central
island of Manhattan along with
four other boroughs: Brooklyn,
Queens, the Bronx and Staten
Island. To many, Manhattan is
New York. The 22-square-mile
island is divided into the three
districts of Downtown, Midtown
and Upper Manhattan. There are
countless museums, theaters,
restaurants, parks and towering
skyscrapers.
The Statue of Liberty, Times
Square, Carnegie Hall, Wall
Street, Broadway, New York
Harbor are just some of the
sights.
Many residents never get to see
it all in a lifetime, so dont
expect to take it all in during
one visit.
The central location of New York
makes it a wonderful alternative
for cruise lines to call home
port. For you, the traveler, it
also makes sense.
Cruises from New York to see the
most popular Caribbean and
Mexican destinations, Europe,

Q:
When can you get pricing for Caribbean Cruises for 2009?
When would be the best time to book?

Robert Mathews
A:
For most cruise lines, You can get pricing now and reserve
your cruise. But if you wait until the "last minute" , about
four to six weeks before sailing cruise lines will discount
their rates if they have unsold inventory ( cabins ) to
fill. This year, we have been some very low prices, as there
are too many cruise ships that "winter" in the Caribbean.
Talk to a travel agent who specializes in cruises; they are
best equipted to give you advice on what cruise line or
cruise ship best suits your needs and budget.
