Princess Voted 'Best Cruise Line for Itineraries' by Travel Agents
Recommend Magazine Poll Honors Company's Diverse Worldwide Cruise
Offerings for Third Straight Year
SANTA CLARITA, Calif. (October 30, 2006) - The travel agent readers of
Recommend magazine have chosen Princess Cruises as the "Best Cruise
Line - Itineraries" for the third year in a row. The honor, part of
the magazine's 10th Annual Reader's Choice Awards, recognizes
Princess' commitment to excellence in worldwide cruise routes.
"Princess has pioneered some of the best itineraries around the world,
and we are delighted that the travel agent readership of Recommend
magazine has recognized us as being the leader in destination
cruising," said Jan Swartz, Princess' senior vice president of
customer service and sales.
Visiting all seven continents, Princess Cruises offers more than 90
itineraries to approximately 270 ports around the globe. The company's
destinations include Alaska, Africa, Asia, Antarctica, Australia/New
Zealand, Canada/New England, Caribbean, Europe, Hawaii/Tahiti, Mexico,
Panama Canal, South Pacific, South America, and world cruises. In
2007, the line will introduce two new vessels - Emerald Princess and
Royal Princess - as well as 10 new ports of call.
Published by Worth International Media Group in Miami, Recommend has
been providing travel agents with a destination and travel product
information resource designed to help them expertly sell travel since
1967.
Additional information about Princess Cruises is available through a
professional travel agent.
Why was the press release from Princess needed for any
informed cruiser to know its extensive itinerary?
Can you say Brochures? Even if you don't know
http://www.princess.com or have a browser to access it.
I get announcements from OVC (Online Vacation Center)
about cruises from all cruise lines all the time, and their
Special offers. Who needs a SPAMMER in rec.travel.cruises
to spam us with the same trivial information any cruiser can
easily find.

I don't count the ports, nor even the Princess cruise ships I've been
on.
But my Princess cruises covered plenty of ports in each of most of
the above:
Alaska, Asia, Australia/New
Zealand, Canada/New England, Caribbean, Hawaii/Tahiti, Mexico,
Panama Canal, South Pacific, South America,
