Kathryn Lyn, and why this site only covers suites

Second generation

Second-generation in the cruise industry. Her parents met working for Cunard Line. She grew up around ships and has booked travel professionally for more than fifteen years.

What she has actually done

Sailed eight cruise lines: Cunard, Celebrity, MSC, Norwegian, Royal Caribbean, Virgin Voyages, Carnival, Princess. Stayed in every cabin type from an inside cabin to a premium suite, including MSC Yacht Club and Norwegian's Haven. MSC Cruises and Celebrity Cruises are the two lines she knows best.

She has not sailed Regent, Seabourn, Silversea, Oceania or Explora Journeys yet. She books them, studies them, and says so on each page rather than pretending.

Where she is

Fort Myers, Florida. She lived in Naples for several years before that. She works with clients across Naples, Bonita Springs, Estero, Fort Myers, Cape Coral, Marco Island by phone, email and in person, and she has driven to every Florida cruise port from here.

How she is paid

By the cruise line, from the same fare you would pay on its website. No planning fee for cruise bookings. The detail is here.

What she is not

Not an employee of any cruise line. Not a franchise. Not a booking website. One person, who answers her own phone.
