Reminders for people going on a cruise
Free Market News reminds us that since the cruise industry is largely unregulated in terms of environmental pollution, customers have to decide for themselves which ships to vacation on. Too bad, there's no mention of how to find the greener cruise ships.
Anchorage Daily news reminds us why we should consider travel health insurance that covers medical evacuation although I'm not sure that the lady who was taken for a ride in a Canadian Army helicopter will have to pay the Canadian government back (don't they like to do things for free in Canada?). However, if she wants to go from Alaska to a hospital in her home state, I bet she will have to pay (the Canadian government won't fly an American from Alaska to home in the continental US - that I'm sure about).

My husband and I are planning to take an Alaskin Cruise, some of my friends have been telling me to be careful that people disappear on those type of cruises. They said they heard it on Opra and on the news. Is this true? Are those type of cruises dangerous?
