Silversea Shadow
The luxury cruise line, Silversea, is going after the baby boomer market. In a July press release, David Morris, Silversea’s executive vice president of worldwide sales and marketing said, ”We are aggressively targeting new-to-Silversea and first-time cruisers by going after a larger share of the lucrative baby boomer market. Younger people have the money and time to travel, and can appreciate the exceptional value a luxury cruise offers when compared to land-based vacations.
Not sure if luxury cruising is for you? Why not try one of Silversea’s 2009 specials like this Los Angeles to Los Angeles itinerary? At a little over $3,000 per person for the lowest cabin, the nine-day Mexican adventure offers a great opportunity to experience an all-inclusive, luxury cruise. Or check this comprehensive list for other good buys.
With the downturn in the U.S economy, I predict that this will be the first of many outstanding travel bargains offered in the next few months.
Do you know of an interesting travel bargain? Post a comment. Share your find with the rest of the baby boomer travel world.

You’re right, Debbie. repositioning cruises offer substantial savings. On Regent Seven Seas, they are usually two for ones. I’ve cruised on an Atlantic crossing (Monte Carlo to Ft. Lauderdale,) and two Pacific crossings (Los Angeles to Sydney and also Auckland to LA.) You can’t beat the mix of ports and consecutive sea days. Alan and I will be traveling on another crossing again this fall when we sail on the Regent Seven Seas Navigator from South Africa to Brazil.
