Good morning Doug! Well, well you look as good as you are funny this morning! Pack a tool kit with your swim suit 😂😂! Just love your humor. Have a great day and thanks for all you do.
We have cruised with Carnival many times and never had an issue. We liked the shows and the food. And there’s no sailing away party like the ones in Carnival. The cruise employees all of them went ahead and beyond to made our stay comfortable and pleasant. Thank you Doug for the daily news.
Morning Doug Lol tool box too funny.yeea for smaller ships for Disney my two favorite ships are magic wonder. Ty you for your daily updates.Have a wonderful Tuesday BTW looking sharp this am 😊
Carnival has completely fallen off since covid. They are trash now and used to be my favorite. Not at all surprised they continually neglect ship maintenance.
Carnival Conquest was my first cruise ship, and it was a 7-day Eastern Caribbean. That is what got me hooked on cruising. It it sad to see it having issues.
Good morning Doug… So nice that Disney is going to make smaller ships… wish other cruise lines would follow 🚢🚢 I hope you are enjoying your cruise… Have a fun cruise day
It would be nice. I have really bad claustrophobia so if a ship is over 5k ppl or so, I usually have to have someone cover it for me. Unless it’s right out of the shipyard. Have a nice day!
Royal announced smaller ships (expected to be around the 2500-3500 people) months ago expected to be out around 2030/2031. I don’t think Royal or any of the other major mainstream ones (Disney is considered premium by most) will go smaller than 2500 people ever again because of the profits the new ships are bringing in. They are paying more money to build them but they are being paid off in 5-7 years instead of the usual 10 years and making them able to quickly gain capacity more than smaller ships. That’s why even Carnival are looking at building ships that have even more people but are the same gross tons as Royal’s icon of the seas
Happy Tuesday Doug Parker!!!! Oh my! Now how am I supposed to focus on the content when the handsome creator is stealing the show!?!? Black T paired with a Blue Jacket...I love it! The Carnival Conquest is not setting the right trends in 2025. Good thing the Carnival Cruise Directors and Fun Squad do an amazing job of entertaining guests and distracting them from these kinds of hiccups. Kudos to Holland America! I love Wheel of Fortune! That will definitely have get tons and tons of eyes on that cruise line and folks vyinig to get on board one of there ships. I won't be on HAL but I will be tuned into Wheel of Fortune at 7PM EST a few nights this week. Can you believe the show is in it's 42nd Season? lol...I need a cruise bad! Disney is going all out! These kinds of sustainable moves might actually motivate me to think a little harder about trying a Disney Cruise. Smaller ships are definitely more my cup of tea and coupled with Disney's Top Tier style of entertainment, dining and destinations, is worth at least one try (if the price is right). Thanks so much for sharing the Cruise News and the Awesome Creator Views! Blessings and Happy Cruising my friend! 🚢 🥰✌
Loved your NETWORK BROADCAST Style intro but you didnt follow it up with similar production audio during the rest of the video. You should consider making this into a podcat without video accompaniment. I bet it would do quite well.
"MS" (Motor Ship) is correct when referring to HAL ships. As others have commented, like the jacket and sweater. Was it formal night or did you just decide to dress up to do the show?
Mornin' Doug! Woohoo!!! A cruise line realizing there's a place for smaller ships! Hopefully other lines will come to their senses soon too! Pack a toolbox! Love it! 🤣 If it weren't for the airlines.....
Good morning Doug! That is epic! Pack a toolbox when cruising on Carnival Conquest! 🤣 Disney I think is on the right track with the 100K sized ships on order. These mega ships have such few options for docking due to their size! I'm hoping Carnival changes course and gets more replacement ships on order as a lot of their fleet will age out in the coming years.
Mr Doug you crack me up with your little quick pokes and stuff at different Cruise lines. Like pack a tool box with your swimsuit. Lol Seriously though what is you least favorite cruiseline? Not saying it's bad necessarily just not your cup of tea or you know what instead of that what is your least area to cruise like the Caribbean cause say your not a beach person lol or Alaska cause it's to cold or whichever place. I have taken 20 cruises this March all Caribbean and my first Alaskan cruise in 2026. My reason is I love the beach the most bit I have incurable cancer in my spine so I don't like to fly because I can't sit long without pain and I'm to big for the seats. My knees in my ears are not comfortable to me and any little turbulence it's terrible pain. So being I live an hour and a half from Galveston, TX or two and a half hours from New Orleans it's easy for me to sail out of those ports.
Love the Nieuw Statendam and Holland America Lines ... some of our most favorite memories are sailing with them.
Thank you for brightening my morning evey day with great cruise videos and pictures of ships.
😅 pack a toolbox with your swimsuit!!!! 😂
I love Doug's snarky little quips.
Dapper look Doug...nice attire 👍🏻
Thanks as always for a great diversified report👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Very welcome!
Looking sharp, Doug! Thanks for the latest cruise news. Have a great day!

Good morning! Thanks for being supportive and showing up every day. Really appreciate you.

They surely have cruising down to a science and it shows. Thanks for watching.
We have sailed all the big names: NCL, Virgin, MSC, Royal, Celebrity, Carnival and Carnival MAKES you have a great time ❤ no complaints from me

Morning Doug
Lol tool box too funny.yeea for smaller ships for Disney my two favorite ships are magic wonder.
Ty you for your daily updates.Have a wonderful Tuesday BTW looking sharp this am 😊
Looking good Doug! You clean up great. 😊🤩
Haha thanks. It’s a wonder what dark jeans and a sports jacket will do.
Carnival has completely fallen off since covid. They are trash now and used to be my favorite. Not at all surprised they continually neglect ship maintenance.

Same to you!

Cruise Week should be fun!
Looking sharp Doug! Have a great day!
Don't forget your tools when boarding your next Carnival cruise, lol

Doug cleans up nicely. Is a tool box required on Holland America?
Haha. Not yet 🤞
Oh my thx Doug..love the quips , nice for Disney. Enjoy your day🚢🙂. Count Down 67 days
Thanks for watching.
Enjoy your cruise Doug.
Thank you, Bonnie.
Looking good, Doug.
Thanks! Have a good one bud
Liked packing a tool box!!😂
Good morning Doug thanks for the updates. 👍 Enjoy your cruise 🛳
Nieuw Statendam is a great ship. Have fun Doug!

Statendam was our Honeymoon ship in 1976 She was a beauty
How cool! Thanks for sharing.
Happy Tuesday Doug. Carnival needs to hire better repair people. Who wants to sail on a ship(s) that is constantly having engine issues.
Loved your NETWORK BROADCAST Style intro but you didnt follow it up with similar production audio during the rest of the video. You should consider making this into a podcat without video accompaniment. I bet it would do quite well.
This started as an audio brief in 2016. Currently has north of 10k streams a day. It’s under Cruise News Today. Thanks for the comment. All the best.
Looking good Doug! You clean up well! ❤😊❤😊😊❤😊❤
"MS" (Motor Ship) is correct when referring to HAL ships. As others have commented, like the jacket and sweater. Was it formal night or did you just decide to dress up to do the show?
Thank you for the info. It was formal night.
Morning Doug, Tampa here. Nice look with the jacket. Handsome as always. I vote for the smaller ships to make a come back. 6500 pax, way to many.
Truth
Thank you for the news. I am going on a cruise as my graduation gift on July 20th-27th. Is that exciting?
Heck yeah. Also graduation is this year?! Now I feel super old. I remember when you started! Congrats 🎊. What ship?
@@CruiseRadioMaybe Wonder Of The Seas.
Doug really lets us know how he feels about carnival...
Not just Carnival, all cruise lines! I do enjoy their brand. Have 77 sailings on them since I was a kid.
Mornin' Doug! Woohoo!!! A cruise line realizing there's a place for smaller ships! Hopefully other lines will come to their senses soon too!
Pack a toolbox! Love it! 🤣 If it weren't for the airlines.....
Haha. Minor details. Have a great day, Mark.
Love it 😂
Yay for smaller ships! Are the other premium lines listening?
I feel like Royal mentioned it in 2024 but haven’t heard a lot since then.
Do I get a discount or OBC if I bring my toolbox? LOL Thanks for the Tuesday Chuckle Doug!
Good evening Doug hope you had a great day ❤❤❤😊❤❤😊❤
Good morning Doug! That is epic! Pack a toolbox when cruising on Carnival Conquest! 🤣 Disney I think is on the right track with the 100K sized ships on order. These mega ships have such few options for docking due to their size! I'm hoping Carnival changes course and gets more replacement ships on order as a lot of their fleet will age out in the coming years.
Hopefully, Carnival Conquest will recover soon. Have a great Tuesday!😊
They run these ships 24/7 365 at a very high level. The Wi-Fi and tech issues are going to continue.
Just a question Doug, what’s your favorite cruise line / ship?
Looking sharp this morning ! Enjoy your day aboard.... treat yourself to something delicious.
Good morning
Morning!
🫠😩😅 I’m going on Conquest in 16 days…. She had better straighten up ! Lol
😮
Carnival now offering $50 OBC if you are a mechanic, $100 if you bring your own tools.
What if a family member traveling with us is a master electrician?
@@CruiseRadio $125 OBC and a 25% FCC.
You look great 😃
Ha ha ha pack a tool box 😁😂🤣
Carnival, Holland, and Princess are using some ships that are too old for reliability.
it's not the age of the ship as much as the technology has failed.
Mr Doug you crack me up with your little quick pokes and stuff at different Cruise lines. Like pack a tool box with your swimsuit. Lol Seriously though what is you least favorite cruiseline? Not saying it's bad necessarily just not your cup of tea or you know what instead of that what is your least area to cruise like the Caribbean cause say your not a beach person lol or Alaska cause it's to cold or whichever place.

Old ships need to see the grave yard… You plan and pay for a vacation and at least you are deserving a decent ship.😭😭😭
☮️☮️☮️☮️
You looks nice,have a good day
Thank you! You too!
You look so handsome🎉
Ite now conquest we don’t need that
Right?!
Your sarcastic remark about bringing a tool box, is unprofessional. Problems happen on every ship.
I will make sure this gets dropped into the appropriate feedback box. Thanks for the comment.
🤣
