CTC, executive vice president, marketing, sales and guest programs, Richard D. Meadows, says that these regions offer warm beaches, exciting excursions, and exotic ports of call and since each region is culturally distinct, passengers can choose from a 6-day to a 25-day cruise and never get bored.

There will be a total of 142 cruises sailing to the Caribbean on nine ships, the newest of which is the ms Nieuw Amsterdam. Six ships will sail on 25 cruises on the Panama Canal. Four ships will offer 40 cruises to Mexico. Finally, there will be 11 ships cruising to the Hawaiian Islands.
