According to World
Explorer's vice president
Dennis Myrick, the line's
Latin America itinerary was
designed to offer an afford-
able and unique alternative to
the glitz and glamor cruises
offered by other cruise lines in
the Caribbean market.

“As indicated by readers of
Conde Nast Traveler maga-
zine who recently gave our
Alaska itinerary the highest
possible rating, passengers
continue to choose World
Explorer for our exciting itin-
eraries,” says Myrick.

“In addition, we attract
passengers by offering some
of the lowest per diems in
Alaska and = new | Latin
America.”
