NOSaints1 Posted October 9, 2015 #1 Share Posted October 9, 2015 Think you could spend 100 nights on a cruise ship? How about 1,000? Dennis Coleman of Baltimore, MD, recently reached a milestone with Carnival that blows any loyalty level away – he recently completed his 1,000th day aboard Carnival during his 139th cruise. He is currently sailing sailing on Carnival Sunshine. During a ceremony Carnival presented Coleman with a model ship and VIP treatment. He recently told someone recently that he cruises more than 12 times a year with Carnival and loves it so much. The staff, dancers and waitress loves him, and he has a lot of their pictures in his computer. Carnival is like family to him. Coleman’s first ship was Carnival Fantasy in 2003 and cruises a dozen or more times per year. He has sailed every ship in the Carnival fleet, some more than once.

Starflyr3 Posted October 10, 2015 #6 Share Posted October 10, 2015 I know that when we were on Monarch of the Seas, there was a couple that basically lived on the ship - they had an inside and booked it just about year-round. I cant even imagine. I love cruising, but... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Medtech2 Posted October 10, 2015 #8 Share Posted October 10, 2015 Oh, how I wish I would have retirement income to do that! Unfortunately my 401k just took another hit... But I have heard that it can be relatively economical compared to retirement places. All meals and housekeeping included. Yes! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Golfin55 Posted October 10, 2015 #13 Share Posted October 10, 2015 I would need someone to restrain me from eating too much food! When I was in college, I had a part time job in a bakery. We were allowed to take home leftovers. After two weeks, I never wanted to see another pastry, much less eat one. As a guy, who LIKES his food. After a while, the need for gluttony wears off.

maywell Posted October 10, 2015 #16 Share Posted October 10, 2015 I'm sure I'll get more than a 100 days of sailing by the time I'm 50 with some of the cruise lines (only in my 30's right now). So far, I have 8 days with Carnival, 7 with NCL, with 12 days later this year with them plus another 21 days next year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cmdchiefthom Posted October 10, 2015 #24 Share Posted October 10, 2015 My wife and I have 114 on NCL with 28 more days coming up in the next 12 months. I've got another 40 or 50 days aboard HAL, and another 14 on Princess. Every cruise is different, and just so relaxing. I had to travel a whole bunch in my previous career and now I can pick and choose when and where, I kind of like that.;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NOSaints1 Posted October 10, 2015 Author #25 Share Posted October 10, 2015 Living in Canada is tough, cause you have to fly to some cities, price of cruise cause not all cruiselines come in CDN dollars. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
