Morrison applauded Tost and right display a photo of Bob old Bantam team from 1948 presented by the Georgetown dent Distinctions being drawn with cruise lines Travellers vith long memories can recall the rigid class distmc tions on ships of yesteryear when passengers were required to con fine themselves to the area of the ship that they had paid for As transatlantic liners gave way to cruise ships the class barriers came down and the oneclass ship became the norm That concept seemed right for voyages designed for pure enjoyment rather than transportation between say Canada and Britain Now something that faintly resembles the old system self imposed Seems to be coming back would be wrong to suggest that today s passengers are segregated the first cabin and tourist classes of the past but there are clear distinctions in the cabins and even the ships that people choose for themselves HIGH AND LOW Heres the pattern Space on newly constructed ships is in heavy demand and so is the highest priced accommodation on other cruise ships The medium priced cabins as a rule don sell as quickly maybe not at all in some cases Finally there are the lowest priced cabins and again the de mand is heavy and early booking is usually essential So the passengers in the upperdeck suites and those in the economical lower deck cabins may both feel a bit smug and self satisfied having got what they wanted But no matter how high the deck nor how low the fare all passengers on virtually every cruise these days have the full run of the ship They enjoy the same entertainment dine in the same restaurants use the same fitness facilities and of course breathe deeply of the same fresh and bracing sea air STAR PRINCESS The next new ship to sail upon the scene will be the 1 passenger Star Princess setting out from Fort Lauderdale on the first of a series of 10day Caribbean cruises on March The 62000ton beauty was con structed for Sitmar Cruises but that company was acquired by Los Angelesbased Princess Cruises in late 1968 as the ship was completion Earlier last year Royal Carib bean Cruise Line launched the 282passenger Sovereign of the Seas which at 74 tons is some per cent bigger than the previous heavyweight champion Queen Elizabeth 2 Sovereign had a highly successful debut season HAUTE CUISINE Florida based Royal Viking Line late in 1988 launched the Royal Viking Sun Emphasis is on sophisticated French cuisine and other luxury touches Before 1989 ends Carnival Cruises will launch its 70 000ton 2 Fantasy now tak shape in a Finnish shipyard Some of the new ships and some remodelled ones seem to reflect more of the influence of hotel designers than of naval architects One has a waterfall another an atrium seven storeys sorry decks high If old seadogs are upset by such radical innovations and they pro bably are just wait until they see the plans for the 000ton ship that London tycoon Ravi Tikkoo has commissioned from a Belfast shipyard Plans are that the ship ten tatively named Ultimate Dream will have accommodation for more than 3 000 passengers Cost is estimated to be the equivalent of nearly million KEEN COMPETITION The advent of several large new ships including two Japanese vessels later this year has ob viously increased the competitive pressures among shipping lines to the benefit of passengers especially those who don demand to be on the newest ships Here are some typical results Reduction in fares on winter Mexican Riviera cruises of Cunard Princess and next fall Caribbean voyages of Cunard Countess Canadian dollars at par with US funds on ctitain sailings such as this month Caribbean voyages of Norwegian Cruise Line Skyward Discounts for senior travellers for those who book ear for stand by passengers for off season travel and the like Incentives differ from one shipp ing line to another so consult a travel agent who is knowledgeable in this field of the business SEVEN SEAS Today cruise horizons are unlimited A generation ago itineraries were largely limited to Bermuda the Bahamas and the major ports of the Caribbean Now cruises seem to be going in every direction Barbados fish festival Quaint Oistuis town in Barbados is the scene of the Oistms Fish Festival March 2527 One of Bar biggest cultural events this festival celebrates the contribution made by the historic fishing town of to the development and life of Barbados These hardy folk tike their ancestors have historically braved the Caribbean and Atlantic waters around Bar Their biggest catch traditionally are flying fish the national fish of the island Fittingly the annual fly fish boning competition for men and women is a feature at traction of the festival Flying fish boning is an art fine tuned by Bajan fisher folk The speed and dexterity with which the competitors extract the ty of bones from the tender flying fish while leaving the succulent flesh intact is enthralling Other events on the Oistins Fish Festival program are appearances by talented local calypsonians swimming events greasy pole competition games gospel singing police tattoo car park musical jams and much more Oistins town is turned into a sprawling bazaar of local foods especially seafood arts and craft entertainment and music for this cultural festival that attracts thousands of locals and visitors alike For more information contact the Barbados Board of Tourism Box
