Real Travel Experts Ira & Helene Kaplan of Cruise Holidays of Marlboro join Ken to discuss Celebrity Cruises and Norwegian Cruise Lines suite perks. Ira and Helene detail two programs that Ken likens to “ships within ships“: The Retreat on Celebrity Cruises and The Haven on Norwegian. These two areas on most the Celebrity’ and Norwegian ships are made available exclusively to suite guests. Perks include: private speciality restaurants, private courtyards, pools / sundecks, butlers, concierge service, priority boarding and reservations “A great value for cruisers accustomed to first class on airlines and five star hotels”, say the Kaplans. Its also a great option for those looking for the luxury experience of a small ship but with the amenities and wide variety of entertainment found on a resort style ship. Ken and Ira discuss the price point on the Retreat and the Haven as compared to a luxury line and the main differences between both.

If you are thinking of “stepping up” your cruising, this is a must-see video.
