USA Today gives CruiseCritic a nod

[Obaybee..tryingthisagain]

There is a very interesting article on todays USA Today website.

I was surprised by the numbers they reported on regarding persons who make their own cruise reservations online being a low 10-15% of all cruise reservations.

For loyal Cruise Critic posters, you will be pleased to know that USA Today highly recommends this website and the advise that we give on it!

Bill McGee is one of their regular columnists. He's talked about cruising before, and has covered Cruise Critic and even mentioned my tip calculator in a previous article! :)

I think the deckplans in cruise brochures look complicated to many and they trust TA's to explain them. We don't see the need but I think that for most, cruising is sufficiently "new" that they need a TA to guide them through on the first time.

but we all agree that this web site is a wealth of information and conversation!!
