Maybe, then, the new marketing guy doesn't have all the right answers? I don't see it as a sign of cost cutting though but rather as a mistake. Maybe there is not a difference between the two.

I have always thought that cruise companies have always put a lot of money into brochures. And, more so, TAs were too free with giving them out. The internet is a wonderful source along with our TAs. Maybe the days of full brochures will soon end along with the "cruise docs."

I pulled out the Grand Voyages 2005 brochure over the weekend to review our October cruise. I saw that there was not much there so I put it back. I never thought that it was a sign of the fall of Radisson because it didn't have tons of information. Any information I have ever needed I have been able to find either online, calling Radisoson, my TA, or in the written brochures. Things that may change, such as cost of excursions and hotels, I don't necessarily expect to be in a brochure printed months in advance. I don't mind having to call to get that information.

Sorry for the rambling.
