Ahoy, Bloggers! Carnival’s Blogger’s Cruise to Set Sail

Carnival has announced the first blogger’s cruise. A group of 700 readers who regularly follow Carnival Freedom Cruise Director John Heald’s blog, set sail for the Caribbean this week.

Heald’s humorous blog is full of self deprecating humor and snippets of cruise life (including difficult guests who insist their booking included a plate of caviar sent to their room each night), and has quite a following of its own. It seemed natural for Heald to suggest a cruise for his readers, so they could all meet up.

It seems a rather odd niche to specifically gear a cruise around. But from the entries in his blog, it seems the it’s gotten off to a great start.
