Cruise Discussions

Just curious what other sites everyone goes to regarding cruising. Cruise Critic, Funville, ShipMate, etc. Also, opinions on why this site isn't gaining in popularity.

I've told people over at Carnival's Funville forums. A couple have come over here. But our roll call is slow.

Pues yo los encontre desde el otro lado del Atlantico y me parece un foro interesante!

Another site is beyondships2. It shows the menus on the ships, which is how I came across it. I also use Cruise Critic, Frommers (for general travel stuff), and the cruise line's direct website. I also get a lot of information from the cruise line's facebook page and other cruise fan pages on facebook. Cruiseline is a very nice website and I find it more real than some of the others and it is member-driven. Cruise Critic is helpful though because they do have some articles and stuff written by staff members.

Honestly, I recently found this site on a search engine when planning shore excursions for my up coming cruise on the Breeze. I am a member of Cruise Critic & ShipMate. I found them on Apple apps store. My throught offer a contest to share on Social Media giving away cruise credit or camara, etc. at least your name can cycle around to some people. I know many of me friends cruise regularly, I cruise 1 a year, this year twice. I am a person that plan ahead, book year in advance, and plan out excursion and activities in advance. So I do read all reviews. I wish your site gives age range of the people posting comments.

That's my take. ;)

Every site take a long time (typically it takes years) to get their core community contributing. We are no different. We have not even been live for 1 year! That said, we'd love to hear your ideas for how we can spread the word. Email me at hello@cruiseline.com and I promise every idea will be considered:)
