Cruise Freek Forums is proud to offer both peak and off-peak group cruise opportunities and, in 2010 we're thrilled to be offering a Christmas/New Year's cruise aboard Royal Caribbean Cruise Lines from Cape Liberty, Bayonne, NJ.
We will be offering a pre-cruise package in Manhattan for those interested which will include hotel, dinner and an evening performance of the Christmas Spectacular at Radio City Music Hall. Transfers from Manhattan to Bayonne, NJ to the cruise terminal.
What's the appeal of cruising from a cold weather port? With over 15 million people in the immediate New York City metropolitan area, there is a lot of people who enjoy cruising but, who don't want to fly, especially during the holidays. This gives them the opportunity to enjoy a Holiday cruise without the hassles of flying. And, for those who don't live in the immediate area - it is a wonderful time to visit New York since the city is at it's best during the Holiday season - from Rockefeller Center to the department store window displays - Manhattan can only be described as magical during the Christmas season. It's truly something everyone should experience at least once in their lifetime.
While Cruise Freek Forums is waiting for the release of the itinerary in April, 2009, it's expect that the ship will remain Explorer of the Seas which has been homeported in Bayonne, NJ for the past several years on a year round basis. In the meantime, you are invited to join our opt-in list to be kept up-to-date on pricing, itinerary and other information such as the pre-cruise package once it is finalized.

Cruise Freek Forums is sponsoring Pre Cruise Party for Oasis of the Seas Inaugural
In eager anticipation, members of Cruise Freek Forums are currently planning a pre-cruise party before the Inaugural sailing which will take place some time in 2009. The party will only be open to those who have booked with Cruise Freek Forums and, it's going to be an event you don't want to miss from food to drinks and dessert plus a DJ and dance floor to party the night away - not to mention a few surprised that are planned for the evening. Cruise Freek Forums are going to make the most of this once in a lifetime opportunity.
Other fun filled events being planned on-board Oasis of the Seas are a Meet and Greet for those who are interested, a group dinner at one of the specialty restaurants and, a beach party to be determined once the itinerary has been announced.
Cruise Freek Forum's official travel agency for this Inaugural sailing of Oasis of the Seas is Ships N' Trips Travel.

Additionally, all group activities are optional! If you simply want to book for pricing and amenities purposes you are more than welcome to do so!

Many people are getting fed up with the quirks of the bigger boards and are loving the freedom they find on Cruise Freek Forums.

Royal Caribbean Selects Oasis Of The Seas And Allure Of The Seas As The Names For Its Project Genesis Ships
The name Oasis of the Seas was selected from more than 91,000 entries in Royal Caribbean's "Name that Ship" contest, which the cruise line launched on January 18 in partnership with USA TODAY. Entrants were invited to submit two names ending in "of the Seas" that best encapsulate the universe of experiences a Royal Caribbean cruise provides guests. The contest marks the first time members of the general public, outside of the cruise industry, have been given the opportunity to name a cruise ship.
The winning combination of names, Oasis of the Seas and Allure of the Seas, was submitted by George Weiser, of Livonia, Michigan. Weiser's well-chosen names scored the highest among all contest entries considered by a panel of judges, and earned him the honor of naming not only the world's next largest and most innovative cruise ships, but the entire class of the new ships, the Oasis-class. Weiser is joined by Jennifer Conley, of Robertsville, Missouri, who suggested Mystique of the Seas and also Allure of the Seas. Conley is also a winner in the naming contest for earning the second-highest score.
"Our customers are remarkably passionate about Royal Caribbean," said Adam Goldstein, President and CEO, Royal Caribbean International. "This naming contest has been a fantastic expression of their interest and commitment. We are thrilled to announce these two names and grateful to USA Today for partnering with us."
The "Name that Ship" contest was judged by a panel of industry experts including Lauren Teton, founding partner of Name One!, which specializes in finding unique names for products and business entities; John Maxtone-Graham, maritime historian, lecturer and author of numerous books, including the latest, "Normandie: France's Legendary Art Deco Ocean Liner"; and Albert Mehrabian, Ph.D. Professor Emeritus of Psychology at UCLA and author of more than 14 books, including "Baby Name Report Card: Beneficial and Harmful Baby Names."
"Taking into account the remarkable sea-going destination Oasis of the Seas will be, the name selection evokes an appropriate feeling of verdant comfort and luxury," said John Maxtone-Graham, maritime historian. "I was very pleased with the final selection and for being invited to take part in the contest."
When launched in late 2009, Oasis of the Seas will be the largest and most revolutionary cruise ship in the world. An architectural marvel at sea, she will span 16 decks, encompass 220,000 gross registered tons, carry 5,400 guests, and feature 2,700 staterooms. The ship will homeport in Port Everglades in Fort Lauderdale, Florida. In 2010, she will be joined by a sister ship, Allure of the Seas. Additional information is available at www.oasisoftheseas.com.

Cruise Freek Forums Present Christmas 2010
Cruise Freek Forums Present:
Our Annual Christmas/New Year's Sailing
in 2010 we are pleased to announce
Royal Caribbean
from Cape Liberty, Bayonne, New Jersey
Well hopefully that has grabbed your attention! Yes that's right, Cruise Freek Forums is already two and a half years into the future planning our 2010 Christmas Cruise from Bayonne, New Jersey.
Today, I am going to tell you about the exciting pre-cruise plans that we are currently developing on Cruise Freek Forums. Many of us on Cruise Freek Forums are tired of other cruise message boards on the web, especially when it comes to group cruise choices. For some reason, it's extremely hard to get approval for peak week groups. Reasons cited on other sites is that "the Holiday's are a hard sell because people want to be with their families" and "it's too expensive" and a host of other excuses.
The truth is that the Holidays - meaning Christmas and New Years - are two of the most popular weeks of the year to sail and the administrator on Cruise Freek Forums has the vision to realize this and, is helping us pull together what will turn out to be a fantastic cruise.
If you're the whiner type - you're already complaining - I can hear you now "Why would I want to sail from a cold weather port". Well, all I can say is like it or lump it. As I explained in yesterday's post this sailing is being organized mainly by people from the New York City tri-state area and those within driving distance. OBLIVIOUSLY THERE IS A MARKET FOR US OR ROYAL CARIBBEAN NEVER WOULD HAVE PUT A SHIP UP HERE FULL TIME. I will not say it again. Don't like it? Then thanks for reading and have a nice day. Have a great time standing in line at the airport to get to YOUR cruise.
Still reading? Ok then! You're who I'm talking to and you're the ones we want joining us on this sailing!
Our pre-cruise plans are going to be rather unconventional for a sailing from Cape Liberty, Bayonne, NJ. If you have a tight budget, we apologize but, this is what the majority want on the message board and, unlike other boards, majority rules on Cruise Freeks Forums Cruise Message Board.
We are planning one and two nigh
t pre-cruise packages in Manhattan. Yes, you read right, Manhattan. We understand fully that hotel prices are going to be double of hotels located in New Jersey but, it's part of the experience we are offering our cruisers. Why? Because Manhattan during the Holidays can only be described as magical. Currently in the works are plans to offer a city holiday lights tour (a very worthwhile enclosed bus tour that will allow you to see all the glam and glitter without the blisters on your feet), and, we are currently taking a poll to see if people would rather attend a Broadway show or go to Radio City for the Christmas Spectacular or both. We will be including dinner in the package and, it's going to be a wonderful time for all who join our group. Sometimes words just aren't enough, sometimes photos are required so this is just a sampling of what you can expect to see in Manhattan during the holidays:
Macy's Window Display (many more than this one)
Radio City Music Ha
llSorry that's all you get for now - have to save some so you'll come back and read again and, hopefully start giving serious consideration to this wonderful cruise opportunity.
