I just logged on to look at our upcoming cruise, and there are new maps in the itinerary section. They are powered by Google Maps so you can zoom in and move around to get a better idea of the area around the port.
They also have a link to the cruise before and after your cruise to easily see back to back itineraries.

I noticed that last night when I popped on to take a closer look at the cruise we booked for next year (June 16 Venice to Athens on the Navigator). The interactively makes it more convienent. Thanks, Regent. What other new things will be coming along to beef up the webpage??

A great new feature! I had no idea where most of the FJORDS ports were, especially Magdalenenfjord which it turns out is on an island in the Arctic Sea.

It is a nice feature; however, they need to do some quality control with their labels. Bergen is on the coast, not up a fjord. "J" and "I" are labeled backwards for FJORDS.

I love this new feature. It really helps our trips come alive. Can't wait to see what Regent will do next to the website.

I love Google maps, use them alot. Too bad we can't switch to the satellite view, that would be nice. It's okay, I kind of miss the old style.
