Family Cruising: Music to a Parent's Ears
"Best Vacation Ever" was ringing in my ears. My two beautiful and amazing six and eight year old boys (yes, I am admittedly biased) were singing the infamous SpongeBob SquarePants tune, from the Nickelodeon cartoon, at the top of their lungs, taking some artistic license with the words. While this song has never made my top downloads, it was glorious music to my ears.
Months earlier, I had a dilemma on my hands. I had promised to take three generations of my family on an Alaska vacation, and I wanted it to be an outstanding experience for every single person. Leaning towards first satisfying my mother, the most discriminating in our group (don't worry, Mom, I still love you), I secured space on the luxurious and comfortable all-suite, all-balcony, Regent Seven Seas Mariner, for a 7-day cruise from Seward to Vancouver... Read more»

In this month's profile, we are focusing on the Cruise Web's own family connection, Cruise Consultant Sherry Jefferson and her son, Client Service Representative Craig Jefferson.
Sherry started working here as a cruise consultant in November of 2005. Sherry loves this job because of the relationships that she builds with all of her clients. This is one of the few sales jobs she's encountered where the client's long term satisfaction and needs are the number one priority.
Craig joined his mom and the Cruise Web family in December of 2006. Since then, Craig has excelled in our Client Service department. As a travel enthusiast, his favorite part of working at the Cruise Web is talking with our clients about their cruise plans.
When asked about the perks of working with family, Sherry and Craig had this to say:
"I get to see my son at least once a day, so just being able to say 'hello' and 'good-bye' every day is wonderful"
"I love the lunches my mom brings me everyday. She takes good care of me."
It's easy to see why The Cruise Web's two working family members love working together and with our clients. And make sure the next time you talk to Craig or Sherry you ask what was for lunch that day.
The Current Spotlight: Family Cruising
by The Cruise Web, Inc.
Planning a family vacation is no easy task. As a busy wife and mother with two active sons and a full-time job, take my word for it. It takes a lot of time and effort to plan a trip, not to mention trying to please EVERYONE.... husband, teenagers, parents, in-laws, siblings, young nieces and nephews. Of course, since I am a travel professional, the responsibility for planning our annual "get-together" is all mine! I have learned through experience that cruising is the answer to my prayers!  Read More»

Cruising Hawaii: the Vacation for the entire family
by The Cruise Web, Inc.
Hawaii. Just saying that name invokes memories of family, fun and adventure.
Growing up in Southern California, Hawaii was the "local" destination. From the sparkling black sand beaches and tropical rain-forests to native cuisine and metropolitan shopping, Hawaii has it all.
Cruising to or around Hawaii is the best way to see these majestic islands in one easy voyage.
