Hi Everyone -

Check out this article in today's New York Times Travel Section.

Hi Tina,

I clicked on the link but got an error message confused

Editing to add: There is an extra "http//". Once I removed it, it worked!

Hi Tina,

What a great opportunity to be interviewed. Word-of-mouth and forums, such as LCT, are the best Ambassadors. Cruiseline perks to those who bring aboard first-time passengers is the icing on the cake.

Retired and loving it!

Tina,

Why can't I find you in the article? Are you quoted on the first article?

Editing to add: I found you! That's great!

Tina, I think Regent should give you something off your next cruise. What great advertising for them. They couldn't pay for better advertising!!

Tina, I read it over breakfast this morning, and was going to post, but I knew somebody would beat me to it! How cool is that? How did you come to be interviews?

Good stuff Tina. E-mail it to Mr. Conroy. For information for future cruisers, the N.Y. Times, travel section has excellent articles on various ports and countries. Just fill in the country and destination.

Tina this is great. It must be cruise Sunday for all travel sections. The Houston paper is featuring cruises also - but the NYT article is so much better.
Agree - Mr. Conroy should offer you a nice perk for this free postive publicity.

We are doing a research project that includes the cruise industry. The folks at marketing at Regent asked if I would speak to the NYT reporter.

I have not received anything from Regent for doing this.

I do think LCT is a wonderful forum and everyone is really passionate about the brand.
