The cruise lines have been busy since my last Cruise Biz Buzz update.

From the ships….
What would you yell? That’s what Star Clippers wants to know. What I want to know is if you have been on a bowsprit, and what did you think?
Oceania Cruises, who I have been watching online, is doing a great job using social media (mostly Facebook) for updating photo albums for fans to enjoy.
Seabourn is doing a great job mixing it up: they frequently retweet links from followers as well as posting their own cruise line news.
