Twilight fans get their own cruise
Holy "New Moon," I was joking when I referenced a cruise for "Twilight" fans in my article Heterosexual couple booked on a gay cruise sues cruise line, but thanks to the wonderful and well-informed commenters on Digg, I have learned that it's actually a real thing (thanks, darkmagic311).Billed as a "Convention at Sea for Twilight Fans," the Alaska Twilight Cruise will take place on August 8-15, 2010, beginning and ending in Seattle -- and they intend to make it a yearly event. The cruise will feature a Q&A and autograph session with "Twlight" actors Ashley Greene, Alex Meraz and Michael Welch (and they're hoping to add a fourth), a costume ball, a charity auction and all the glory of Glacier Bay, Juneau, Sitka, Ketchikan and Victoria, B.C. "Imagine an Alaska Cruise Adventure with a Twilight Convention at Sea ... it's the best of both worlds ... for sure," says Linda Wolf, owner and "Captain."
The operating company, Cruises Cruises Cruises, has previously arranged Star Trek, Barbie and Beatles cruises. How's that for versatility? Prices range from $1049 per person in a 2-bed inside room to $3299 per person in a 4-bed deluxe verandah suite, convention fee and fuel surcharges not included.
