Cruise

Extra dance partners added to Crystal ‘Big Band’ cruise

Crystal Cruises has tripled the number of its Ambassador Host dance partners, from the normal four aboard every sailing, to 12 for its March 31, 2013 “Big Band and Ballroom Dance”voyage. The Experience of Discovery cruise will also have double the usual amount of dance instructors on board, along with the legendary Glenn Miller Orchestra to keep toes tapping. The Miami-Lisbon voyage aboard the Crystal Serenity starts at US$221 p.p./per day. Crystal’s gentlemen Ambassador Hosts serve as engaging dancing, dining and conversation partners for solo women during their cruise. Hosts are also available to accompany women on the dance floor whose companions might not be dancers. The social hosting services are complimentary, as are all musical theme activities, including daily intro and advanced dance classes teaching everything from classical ballroom to Latin favourites and swing. Also featured during the 10-day sailing are new Magic Castle at Sea shows and Crystal’s newly released Elton John tribute production, Rocket Man. (http://www.crystalcruises.com)
