What will the Gulf be like in November?

November 1st, 2010

sneaky212003 asked:


My friends and I are scheduled to take a cruise (Eastern Carribean) the week of Thanksgiving 2010.
Has anyone else booked a vacation this year in the Gulf of Mexico? What do you think the travel conditions will be like considering the BP oil spill? Has anyone’s trips/cruises been cancelled yet?

FresnozFinezt asked:


I want to go on a cruise like 3-4 days thats pretty cheap. or be like on a standby for an even better deal ( If they even have that) Probably Mexico because thats the closest and least expensive. ( I’m a college student who wants a short vacation with little money). If anyone knows about anything like that please let me know. Thank you P.S. I know cruises are expensive but I’m looking for a good deal. Thanks for the help!

I’m a competitive tennis player, and I’m already hearing how much weight people gain on cruises. I can’t come back fat and out of shape. Any ideas on how to stay on top of my game?

Why are there so few ethnic minorities on the major cruise ships?

June 7th, 2009

Conversation asked:


I have been spending alot of time on cruise ships in the last few years. I have gone on 7 cruises in the last 3 years. I have an observation about the people on the cruise ships:
97% of them are white people. Why is this the case in a country that is 1/3 minority and especially strange considering most cruises leave from Florida which is 50% Black and Hispanic.
I know, some of you will tell me that you saw some Black, Asian and Hispanic people on your last cruise. I agree, there are some minorities cruising but only maybe 3% of the people on the boat. Why?
It is not a money issue because many Asian and Black people are middle class and I go on cruises for very cheap on a lower middle class income. Is it cultural, do ethnic minorities not like water and warm weather?

So much food is wasted on cruises every year..
Maybe cruise companies can start donating wasted food at ports?

Ash asked:


I’m 20 years old and I am moving to Europe in April. I have found a few very afforable cruises, but all say I have to be 21 to travel alone. I cannot afford to fly.
