Baby it's cold out there... But here, we're talking about warm Caribbean cruises and time spent by the pool deck. We've gone through and hand-picked some fun articles for you to take a look at in case you missed any of it.
The big news this week is it appears Royal Caribbean will be sending Jewel of the Seas to Los Angeles in 2015.
It's not clear how much time Jewel of the Seas will spend on the west coast, but it is a step forward to bringing cruise ships back to an area that has been devoid of cruise ships for a few years now. The port schedule lists three stops in 2015, which could very well be part of a Panama Canal cruise itinerary.
Royal Caribbean has not made any announcement about returning to Los Angeles, but in the past port schedules have been good indicators of what Royal Caribbean intends to do.
