Princess Cruises Unveils New Blog with Tales of People “Linked by the Sea”

As they have done the past two years with their popular blogs “50 Essential Experiences” and “Inspired to Cruise,” Princess Cruises has launched a new blog for 2013. Called “Linked by the Sea,” it will explore the many relationships that begin, or are rekindled, at sea. Featuring touching stories from both passengers and crew members, the blog will recount personal tales of friendship, romance and meaningful connections forged at sea. The new blog, found at LinkedbytheSea.com (and linked here in Cruise Diva's Blogroll), will follow the outline of the line's previous blogs and chronicle a new story each week throughout the year.

“A cruise often includes the discovery of new friends or rekindled relationships that lead to meaningful or lifelong bonds,” said Jan Swartz, Princess Cruises executive vice president. “We frequently hear amazing stories from our passengers and crew about people they connect with at sea. These moving tales provided the perfect theme for our third blog and we know they will touch readers.”

In the first post, passenger Steve Deas tells how wearing a kilt on board became an icebreaker that led to an ongoing friendship with Princess Maître d’ Generoso Mazzone. This friendship led to a unique opportunity for Steve to surprise his wife with a secret vow renewal ceremony during a visit to Emerald Princess. What was supposed to be a friendly visit became an anniversary to remember.

Blog readers are encouraged to share their own “Linked by the Sea” stories through the blog as well. Submissions to linkedbythesea.com/share-your-story will be considered for future blog posts.
