As part of our ongoing efforts to improve the Discovery Cruise Line website, we're currently investigating the use of widgets. For those of you unfamiliar, widgets act as client-side plugins which operate through your internet browser or right on your desktop as handy little tools. Some of the proposed ideas include Google maps of Grand Bahama Island, or a weather plugin to check the daily and extended forecasts.
If there's any other utility or functionality you'd like to see added to the website, drop us a line and let us know. Odds are there's a widget out there designed for just such a purpose!

Domain Change
The Sheraton at Our Lucaya and the Westin at Our Lucaya have extended their early booking promotions until the end of August. If luxurious beachfront hotels, fine dining, casino action and spas (at a price that can't be beat) sounds like type of vacation then look no further than either the Sheraton or Westin resorts.
In other news, DiscoveryCruise.com is scheduled to change domains to DiscoveryCruiseLine.com this September. Although a seemingly easy task, a lot of effort and preparation have gone into making the transition as smooth as possible. As always, if you have any suggestions for the new site (design changes, additions, etc.) feel free to drop us a line, and we'd be more than happy to take it into consideration!

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?
