New cruising website offers the best objective cruise content
DES MOINES, Iowa, Oct. 6, 2009 – The founders of popular CruiseCompete.com announced the launch of AllThingsCruise.com, an independent travel website dedicated to the planning of the best cruise vacations ever.
“The idea to launch AllThingsCruise came from the hundreds of thousands of CruiseCompete visitors since 2003,” explained Bob Levinstein, CEO of CruiseCompete. “Our customer care people answer each and every question a guest has about cruising so we were constantly seeking out answers. We visited hundreds of sites to find the information our visitors requested. Questions ranged from how do I find the right cruise, the right ship, the right destination, which is the best shore excursion, will my cell phone work on board to what will I wear. We thought it was time to develop our own cruise site that addresses many of the questions posed by new and seasoned cruisers.”
CruiseCompete does not sell cruises, rather the site facilitates relationships between cruise buyers and cruise sellers to provide the best deals to the consumer.
Unlike many other cruise-oriented web sites, Levinstein emphasized that AllThingsCruise.com is not sponsored by any specific travel agency or cruise line. Its independent status enables it to provide viewers with objective, unbiased insights on various aspects of cruise travel.
A valuable and unique feature of AllThingsCruise is a complimentary E-card service for travelers to e-mail vital cruise line and cruise ship telephone contact information to family members and others prior to departure.
Another feature of the site is a panel of cruise bloggers, the most prominent of which is Cynthia Boal Janssens who will be writing about her cruise experiences as well as answering questions from cruise travelers. She is a past president of the Society of American Travel Writers and has cruised to all parts of the world. Her expertise and reputation will further enhance the value of AllThingsCruise to its readers.
“We believe AllThingsCruise.com will quickly become one of the most credible sources for both new and seasoned cruisers,” Levinstein said. “Many cruise travelers have a real passion for vacationing at sea and we want to capture their enthusiasm and excitement on this Web site to help spread the word on the joy and value of cruise vacations.”
