The New York Times’ T Magazine takes a look at the stylish side of cruising
Skift Take
As Conde Nast Traveler began to demonstrate with its cruise coverage in summer of 2011, cruising has become such an enormous industry that it's become impossible for advertising-driven businesses to ignore it, even if they previously saw their brands above it.
Mass-market, buffet-fueled cruising is usually beyond the interest of the New York Times’ hyper-stylish T Magazine travel issues. This month, however, the issue dives deep into cruising and comes up with a few pearls:
- A couple’s story about taking a honeymoon cruise on the Queen Mary 2 out of Red Hook port in Brooklyn.
- A roundup of more interesting itineraries from major lines.
- The story of a first-time cruiser on Oceania’s M.S. Riviera.
