Discovery Sun 2010

Discovery Cruise Line has been sailing to Grand Bahama since 1987 and has carried over 4 million passengers from Fort Lauderdale to Grand Bahama to date. Far from being just a cruise ferry, Discovery books vacation packages for its passengers at most resorts on the island as well as excursions to the island’s many interesting attractions. In January 2010 Discovery Sun will be going into dry dock for two weeks and has many exciting changes planned for when we resume sailing.

Marine Travel

Discovery Sun will be going into dry dock in January, which means vacation for many of the crew. The staff in the entertainment department is getting very excited as I am now ordering their air tickets home. Crewmembers get great prices for Marine Travel and all of the air tickets will be booked with Europe USA. I personally will not be going home because my family will be coming to visit me, which is great as I won't have to endure the freezing temperatures and they can enjoy the sunshine.

Marine Travel

One of our affiliated companies has just relaunched their website - Europe USA have been serving the cruise industry for over 20 years as Marine Travel Professionals providing low cost airfares and great service to our crew as well as crew from many other cruise lines - If you've ever wondered about working on ships, check out this site which has a lot of usefull information: http://www.cast-a-way.com/

Christmas Shopping

I can't believe how quickly the time is flying by -it is November already and the stores have put away the summer stock and getting ready for the holidays. Christmas is right around the corner and soon we'll all be bargain shopping for Christmas. I intend to get all my presents online on what is known as "cyber Monday" which is the monday after Thanks Giving - you may want to sign up to receive the Discovery Cruise Line email offers - rumour has it that they will be having a great sale on that day too! But only for those guests who have registered online.
In the meantime I am going to continue ejoying my daily trip to the Bahamas! We will be starting a new beach party tour next week which should be fun - I'll keep you posted.

Perfume Factory

A must see for every visitor to Grand Bahama Island is the Perfume Factory, located in an elegant plum and white replica of an old Bahamian mansion at Freeport's International Bazaar. A tour not only takes you behind the scenes of a working fragrance production operation, but you will also have the opportunity to mix your own special fragrance, bottle it and name it. Fragrance of the Bahamas Limited, housed in the Perfume Factory, produces some of the most popular perfumes colognes and lotions in the Bahamas. Discovery Sun now offers a combination tour, which takes you to the Garden of the Groves and then to the Perfume Factory. Stop by the shore excursion desk onboard and let our staff help you make the most of your trip to Grand Bahama.
