How To Say 'I Love You'? Crystal Cruises Counts Three Romantic Ways

LOS ANGELES, Feb. 1 -- For many couples, cruising on a Six-Star
rated ship is the essence of luxury, pampering and romantic bliss. The
luxurious details that distinguish a Crystal Cruises experience from all
others -- the pervasive atmosphere of relaxed elegance, gracious yet
unobtrusive service and attention to every detail -- inspire the perfect mood
for romance.

Now, with the introduction of their new Crystal Honeymoon, Anniversary and
Renewal of Vows At Sea Packages, luxury cruise specialist Crystal Cruises
helps couples to celebrate romance at sea in style. These three special
occasion packages, available as an option aboard any of Crystal's worldwide
itineraries, offer a thoughtful array of sentimental mementos, special Crystal
amenities and romantic ceremonies.

"We know that many of our guests select a Crystal cruise as a luxurious and
romantic way to commemorate their marriage, and many of them have inquired
about opportunities to renew their vows while on board," explains Dietmar R.
Wertanzl, Crystal Cruises' senior vice president, hotel operations. "Whether
a couple is celebrating a honeymoon or special anniversary, we have designed
these convenient gift packages with celebration in mind."

The Renewal of Vows at Sea program honors an anniversary with a special on
board ceremony performed by the Captain or clergy. A bottle of Veuve Clicquot
champagne, flowers, a portrait of the couple, and an anniversary cake for
six-to-eight round out the package. The Crystal Anniversary Package includes
champagne, a portrait and a miniature gold-plated clock with the line's
seahorse logo. And for those spending their honeymoon aboard Crystal Harmony
and Crystal Symphony, the Crystal Honeymoon Package offers champagne,
sweetheart cake for two, certificate signed by the Captain and a portrait.

Six-Star Crystal Harmony and Crystal Symphony are 940-guest, 50,000-ton
luxury vessels whose onboard amenities include spacious lounges, intimate
bars, expansive decks, two pools, several restaurants, and exquisitely
appointed staterooms and penthouses, most of which boast private verandahs.
Romantics can also enjoy complimentary room service served course-by-course.
In the fully-equipped fitness facility and lavish spa -- guests may take the
Couple's Massage Lesson for instruction on techniques to use on each other to
relieve stress and tension, reduce pain, boost energy and rejuvenate muscles,
while each partner receives a half-body massage by the professional therapist.

Crystal's Penthouse Deck guests receive the ultimate in pampering.
European-trained, white-gloved butlers are committed to satisfying the guest's
every need -- from unpacking luggage or assisting with pressing -- to
coordinating an intimate dinner or arranging an in-room, 90-minute, full-body
massage.

The luxury line's most recent honors include the 1998 "Best Large-Ship
Cruise Line" awards from the readers of both Travel & Leisure and Conde Nast
Traveler magazines.
