Brit Doesn’t Win at the Wynn

britney spearsI can’t help but say, oops she did it again. Britney Spears is under fire this weekend for taking her kids out of California for a astonishment trip to Las Vegas without telling ex Kevin Federline or his lawyer - kinda a no-no when you’re in the middle of a legal battle with an ex who’s seeking sole custody. To make matters worse, during Brit’s stay at the Wynn Las Vegas, her body guard reportedly proceeded to pummel a photographer or someone with a photographer trying to snap pics of Spears’ kids. Brit and her crew apparently checked out of the hotel shortly after the incident.

New Smoking Policy Onboard RCCL Ships

NEW SMOKING POLICY ONBOARD ROYAL CARIBBEAN SHIPS
MIRRORS GROWING TREND TOWARD SMOKE-FREE ENVIRONMENT
Vitality Wellness Program Continues To Bring a Breath of Fresh Air Fleetwide

MIAMI, July 23, 2007 – In time to help guests set their New Year’s resolutions for a healthier lifestyle, Royal Caribbean International announces a new smoking policy onboard its ships, effective January 2008. To bolster the cruise line’s new Vitality wellness program, recently debuted on Liberty of the Seas – the newest vessel to share the title of the world’s largest cruise ship with sister-ship, Freedom of the Seas – Royal Caribbean is increasing smoke-free zones by designating all staterooms and one lounge on each ship in its fleet as non-smoking areas. The new policy will go into effect aboard 18 of the line’s 21 ships initially, with Legend of the Seas, Rhapsody of the Seas and Splendour of the Seas following suit with the 2008 summer season.
“Feedback from our guests was a driving force behind the new Vitality program and our focus on wellness,” said Alice Norsworthy, senior vice president, Marketing, Royal Caribbean International. “Results from online polls as well as input from all of our international offices worldwide, show very powerful support of the new smoking policy. These changes reflect a more contemporary approach to healthier lifestyles and will significantly improve the cruise vacation experience for our guests.”
Currently, smoking is prohibited in guest hallways and corridors, restaurants, entertainment venues and most of the ship’s interior public spaces except for designated areas in bars and lounges. The new policy will add all guest staterooms and suites, and one bar or lounge on every Royal Caribbean ship onto the roster of smoke-free spaces. Guests wishing to smoke may still do so from starboard outer decks, in designated areas in bars and lounges, and on stateroom and suite balconies. Ashtrays are available in designated smoking areas or by request thcoarse stateroom attendants. Violations of the smoking policy will result in cleaning charges to the guest’s onboard account and may also be addressed thcoarse the line’s Guest Conduct Policy, details of which are available both online and in all staterooms.

Royal Caribbean’s Vitality wellness program was designed to encourage and introduce ways for guests to achieve a better balance in their lives. The program presents healthier lifestyle choices across every aspect of the cruise experience, including fitness classes and spa treatments, onboard and land-based activities, shore excursions, and healthful drinks and food selections. Guests have the choice to attempt one or two elements or enjoy the total Vitality wellness experience to begin a more balanced approach to healthier living.
Royal Caribbean International is a global cruise brand with 21 ships currently in service and three under construction. The line also offers unique land-tour vacations in Alaska, Asia, Australia, Canada, Europe and New Zealand thcoarse its cruisetour division.
