Prestige Travel Vacations Says, ‘You Deserve a Cruise,' Take a Vacation. It's Good for You, Good for Your Country, It's Affordable and You've Earned It.

Land O Lakes, FL, July 08, 2009 --(PR.com)-- Need a break to reconnect with family and loved ones? Need a chance to recharge your batteries and reflect on your next steps? Do you feel as if you need permission to go on vacation? Maybe you deserve a cruise.

Health experts like Dr. David Hubschmitt, a New Jersey-based psychologist specializing in depression, say that a well-deserved vacation is essential therapy during hard times. “A well-timed vacation may offer significant benefits for mental health. The relaxation provides a much-needed change of gears in a time-starved society, and may be an ideal time to reconnect with loved ones traveling with you. For those traveling alone, vacations may lead to a higher level of self discovery,” Hubschmitt said.

So, this summer Prestige Travel Vacations is teaming up with Cruise Lines International Association (CLIA) to urge you to take the vacation you have earned, can afford and deserve. By doing so you’ll even be helping the economy back on its feet. From June 8 through August 31st, more than 23 member cruise lines will offer unprecedented - and probably never to be seen again – values and prices as part of a special “You Deserve a Cruise” promotion. For area residents, all of the special offers are available at Prestige Travel Vacations.

“I think I speak for a lot of people when I say ‘Enough is enough’ with the bad news, the worries and the anxiety. We really need to be good to ourselves in order to deal with the stress and there’s no better way to do that than to take a break and totally shift gears,” said Lori Judd, owner of Prestige Travel Vacations. “Everybody’s working awfully hard to get through these challenges and we need to give ourselves permission to take a vacation. It’s therapeutic and even puts money back into the economy. And, with the incredible offers being made by CLIA member cruise lines, what better time could there be to get some ‘cruise therapy?"
