Another week is in the books and there is plenty of excitement around the CruiseNReview headquarters (house).
We are just one week away from our very first cruise live blog and our team added some more certifications to assist you in booking your dream vacations. Without further delay, here is this our weekly round-up of content from CruiseNReview for the week of February 5 to February 11:
What's the difference? Breaking down your choices of major cruise lines
Just like with airlines, cruise lines are abundant. You have a choice. Some travelers choose to stay loyal to the same company and collect reward points while others hop around, choosing a cruise based off of price, itinerary, or any other variable that strikes a chord.
What if you have only been on a few cruises (or none) or are looking to try something different from your old trusty cruise line that you've been with for years? How does each cruise line differ? What do they offer? You don't want to make a mistake and end up on the wrong ship with the wrong cruise line with nothing that suits your interest or wants.
In this guide, we'll breakdown several of the top cruise lines and what they each bring to the table in their own unique way. Read more.
Live content from Voyager of the Seas next week
It's almost cruise time for the CruiseNReview team! Beginning on Thursday, February 16, we will provide live content from San Juan, Puerto Rico and Voyager of the Seas. The cruise is a 7-Night Southern Caribbean cruise departing from San Juan and visiting six amazing ports of call. We'll post a preview of the trip on Tuesday and then live content on all platforms will be available starting Thursday and running until Sunday, February 26.

Sailing roundtrip from Fort Lauderdale, Florida, this unique itinerary features a partial transit of the locks and rare stops in Columbia, Panama, and Costa Rica. If you've got the time, the itinerary is affordable and unique. It's everything we look for in a cool cruise.
Photo of the Week

If you don't follow PTZtv on social media then it is time that you start. They provide a variety of webcams in cruise destinations all over the US and Caribbean that allows you to get spectacular live video of cruise ships sailing into and out of port.
This week's photo of the week comes from the PTZtv Facebook page and it's of Royal Caribbean's Anthem of the Seas sailing under the Verrazano-Narrows Bridge upon departure from Cape Liberty, New Jersey.
The Cape Liberty sail away is one of the best in US, passing by downtown Manhattan and eventually under this bridge pictured here.
If you have a photo you would like to submit to be our weekly photo of the week, e-mail it to us with your name, the location of the photo, and the date it was taken to info@cruisenreview.com.
