Norwegian Cruise Line - Spirit
My husband and I took our first cruise in Nov 09, aboard the Norwegian Spirit, for a western Caribbean cruise. I had heard both good and bad concerning cruising and we were both a little apprehensive over what our experience would be like. Prior to our choosing a cruise line or even a particular ship we spent hours reading reviews and listening to friends and family who had cruised before. We hoped we would experience only the good and not some of the horror stories we had read or heard about.
The Spirit had recently been overhauled in 2008 and it showed. The ship was beautiful and everything...

Essentravel.com
Hello....I jumped on Essentravel.com again, I needed a package deal to Miami and they had a bunch to choose from. I decided on the Trump sonesta, I liked the provided pictures and the amenties looked good also. The hotel had a sort of southwest flavor to it, a lot of reds and oranges, it was visually pleasing.
The staff was more than helpful, room service was real tasty they cooked a steak just to my liking. Over all it was a terrific stay, I highly recommend it!!
Continental Airlines
There are many advantages to living in Houston and one of them is that Continental Airlines offers many non stop flights from Houston to were I want and need to go. Much of our family lives in Ohio and without Continental Airlines it would be difficult if not impossible to see our family (with them traveling here or us traveling there) as often as we do. My daughter has flown using their unaccompanied minor system (which is expensive but never messed up); I have flown alone with two preschool children in tow and so far every experience has been excellent.
What I like about air travel with Continental...
review »Grand Sierra Resort and Casino - Reno, NV
Well first of all, if you reserve a room, be prepared to be charged $11.50 a day per room for a resort fee. We asked what that was for and they said you get (2) two free bottles of Figi water upon arrival and every day when they clean your room. (we only received them once) you also have access to their bowling alley that you have to pay for as well as their arcade that you have to pay for and the movie theater that you have to pay for. You also get access to the fitness center that was closed when we tried to use it. They also said that the fee was for their valet service. Upon arrival, they...

Peppermill Hotel Casino - Reno, NV
We love staying at the Peppermill. They treat you with such respect and are always pleasant. The bar tenders are so very nice and funny. The rooms are so beautiful and always clean. You will have the best night sleep and the rooms are always clean! Go and enjoy yourself!
Nosara, Costa Rica
To all visitors to this charming beachside village, I heartily recommend to all the surf school and surf shop run by Juan Surfo. In a small community where all businesses except his are owned by non-Costa Ricans it feels both right and proper to give money to Juan and the Costa Ricans he employs as teachers, helpers, repair personnel and cleaning and gardening staff. There are at present 11 surf schools in Nosara and all but Juan's are owned by foreigners. He also rents out apartments and small houses. For a great time come to this village and enjoy its beauty and laid back atmosphere. This...

Royal Caribbean - Liberty of the Seas
My husband, myself, our two teen daughters and two of their friends sailed. The girls had a great time, so I'm speaking for myself and my husband. (age 45 and 50)
We all were soooo looking forward to this cruise! We all know how to have a great time too; however, this was the worst cruise ever,..first time being sour,....and we spent so much money, shame.
Why? The cruise director, whomever that was, is horrible! The FEW activities were bogus,...like fake smokescreen to fill the calendar to make it appear great but completely lacked quality,....unenthused staff,.....some of the night...

Royal Caribbean - Sovereign of the Seas
I was on royal caribbean cruise, on the sovereign of the seas. The ship was huge, with many options for dining as well as entertainment. They have a wide variety of activities to do, some you must may extra for, such as parasailing and wave runner trips. I took the wave runner excursion and it was worth the extra money. They showed up a sandbar covered in starfish, where you could stand in the middle of the ocean and not see landanywher you looked. My only issue was the swimming pool had salt water in it and I was a bit put off by it.
Delta Airlines
Delta was the cheapest airline to fly to New York from Heathrow this November and I bought two tickets and prayed. I needn't have worried. Very efficient check-in, early boarding, on time departure, friendly staff, plenty of legroom, modern, clean interior, early landing, no problems with baggage, on both the outward and return journeys. I will definitely fly Delta again: what value for money!
Magnuson Hotel Sweetwater - Sweetwater, TN
All I can say is wow. I stayed at Magnuson Hotel Sweetwater in Sweetwater, TN for a few days. I was trying to keep the hotel as inexpensive as possible but definately above roach motel standards. I was pleasantly surprised by the website and the offer to have free dinner each night you stayed at the hotel. I was in the area to see local attractions and did not find many hotels to choose from in the area I wanted to stay. This seemed like a nice, budget conscious choice. Upon walking into the room I was quickly reminded of the old saying "you get what you pay for". It was something out of...

Midwest Airlines
Just wanted to leave a nice word for the Midwest Air staff who retrieved my shopping bag from the DSM-MKE flight this past Sunday.
I forgot to grab my bag full of gifts and some nice personal items from under the seat in front of me and realized what happened when I was already in NYC. I called immediately and, disheartened not to hear a live person's voice on the lost-and-found number, left a voicemail with my info. Well I got a call back Monday morning. Cindy from MWAir confirmed the item description and I have received my bag today.
I've had jewelry stolen from my checked baggage while flying...

Jet Blue Airways
I love the service, in flight television, and coffee. Most of all, I love the fact that they treat the passenger like a person, not cattle and have enough legroom for a man of over 6' to sit comfortably.
If JetBlue flew into my native Philadelphia (PHL), I'd fly them at least 8 times a year.
