Norwegian Getaway is the second of two ships that the company has on ordered. It was announced earlier this year that Norwegian Breakaway will homeport in New York City. Norwegian Breakaway is currently under construction at Meyer Werft shipyard in Papenburg, Germany

“Miami has been the home of this Company since our beginning in 1966. Therefore, we are so excited to bring one of our two new Breakaway-class ships here to Miami to homeport year-round,” said Norwegian Cruise Line Chief Executive Officer Kevin Sheehan. “Norwegian Getaway will embrace all that the Magic City has to offer and will offer an extraordinary cruise experience to the more than 4,000 guests who will sail on her each week beginning in spring 2014.”

This will add to the new ships expected to call Miami home: Carnival Breeze, Disney Wonder, Oceania’s Riviera and Celebrity Reflection.

 The US Coast Guard just rescued a 31 yr., Robert Mado, a crew member from Royal Caribbeans ‘Majesty of the Seas,’ after a two hour rescue search.

The ship was en-route back to Miami from Key West when the man was reported overboard. 

The Coast Guard answered the distress call about 4:30 am.

Mado appears to be in stable condition.

Every once in a while I will see a deal that floors me and makes me wish that I could get the time off to do so.  Most recently was this afternoon cruising around on Royal Caribbeans site. I saw a four day cruise on the Majesty of the Seas out of Miami for 119.00. Another cruise that floored me was the cruise I like to venture on for a quick get away, the Monarch of the Seas, leaving this Friday out of Port Canaveral, for 129.00. A steal!
Being the tech geek, I follow a lot of the travel agents on twitter. All day long today it seems like every cruiseline was coming out with a super cheap seven day cruise. Holland America has a sale right now with a lead rate of $399 for a 7-day cruise, inside stateroom, Mexico! Those are just a couple I came across on my daily search on the net. I am tired of hearing people say cruising is just for the retirees! We are seeing some of the best cruises prices since 2001. Pack your bag and go!
