To Cruise or to Fly

For travelers wishing to visit Grand Bahama Island, the first step begins with the question, "Do I want to fly or cruise there?" When you're only concerned with getting to the island, it's easy to forget about all the added benefits to cruising instead of flying. Admittedly an airline is faster, but you're stuck in what's likely to be an uncomfortable little chair for the duration on your flight, with few (if any) meals, and if you're lucky an in-flight movie which premiered in theaters two or three years ago.

For less than the cost of a flight, you can instead opt to stretch your legs and enjoy spacious sundecks, a swimming pool, lounges and bars, and a disco. You can play games onboard for prizes or gamble in the casino at various slots and table games, and on the return trip you can enjoy a Las Vegas style show. Instead of a microwaved ambiguous meat or poultry dish, you can enjoy three lavish buffet meals of exceptional variety prepared daily.

Not much of a choice to make, is it?
