I live in Bromsgrove and work for Cruise.co.uk as a home worker, I'm only 5 minutes away from our Head Office in Redditch. Now for those of you not entirely sure of the beautiful sights that Redditch has to offer, if you go into any good book shop and ask for a…
Last week here at Cruise.co.uk, we have had a record-breaking Sales week with P&O launching their Summer 2021 and Spring 2022 programme. Lucky bookers managed to take advantage of the 5% Early booking discounts + 5% Past passenger discounts. Not to mention our added value on top, plus expert service…
Here at Cruise.co.uk we advertise ourselves as the 'real Cruise people', we are Cruise experts, masters of our field. We don't do bucket and spade holidays or weekends to UK holiday parks so over the years our knowledge has grown and I can safely say between myself and fellow colleagues…
Sad this week to see the possibility of Thomas Cook hitting tough times. It was rumored earlier this year that they were possibly in trouble, however, it had all gone quiet for a while. It is speculated they have driven up to £1.6bn in debt over the last few years…

Thumbs up from me MSC, this definitely makes things easier from a Travel Agent perspective. I think with P&O also scrapping gratuities from May this year and now MSC following it…
As always I like to report back on one of the top highlights of my year, the Isle of Wight festival. This year did not disappoint, weather was fantastic, Clara the camper van got us there in one piece, and we parked up directly opposite the entrance to the main…
The time of year has come again to head off for my favourite festival of the year the 'Isle of Weight Festival'. I've done this festival since 2012, it just gets better every year. We're heading down tomorrow morning, myself and three friends in our trusty camper van 'Clara'. She…
It's safe to say as Cruise consultants we have a fantastic job, not only do we get to sell a great product, we also get to chat with really lovely passengers. I've been very lucky over the last 10 years to build up a fantastic database of regular clients who…
After the big turn around for Royal Caribbean this week it does make me wonder whether passengers will lose faith in their favourite Cruise Line. Earlier this week Royal Caribbean made the shock announcement that they would be pulling the 'Independence of the seas' out of Southampton in Summer 2020.…
