Thread: NONREV via CRUISE LINE

Lauderdale, near where he works for these cruise liners. Sort of like us with airplanes, this guy rides on his cruise ships for free. Sometimes he says he gets out of work, on the weekend, and suddenly just jumps on board a cruise ship. Quite an interesting benefit. I'm sure there is always room.
He told me if I ever wanted to go on a cruise, that he is the guy you want to talk to for setting up the price. With no problems. I hate to use people for favors when I am capable of getting my own deal when it comes to discounts but he made it very tempting.
Here, a cruise line employee hanging out in El Salvador at a crew staying hotel bar with a girl friend knocking off a couple of beers, non reving in the caribbean on cruise liners. Not bad.

I would at least ask him if he knows of any interline agreements that we can book direct without calling up a 3rd party travel agent to mark it up
