I just started my own cruise business selling cruise vacations. I want to get some information on those who go on cruises.
1) What would you expect from someone that you would buy a cruise with.
2) Is there anything that someone selling a cruise can do that would make you say wow and use them?
3) If you have never taken a cruise, what would you want?

Thank you for taking your time to read and hopefully respond.

I am a total cruise dummy. I don’t know many people that have even been on a cruise vacation. I am going on my first cruise in October. I live in San Diego so I will depart from the local port. It is a 4-day Mexico cruise, the destination is Cabo San Lucas. I know there are restaurants and activities that are offered on the cruise, I am sure the food and activities are included in the price of the cruise. Does that include alcoholic beverages? Will we have to buy our own drinks? I am taking my boyfriend and he smokes. Does he have to go outside the ship in order to smoke or are there designed smoking areas or cabins (like non-smoking and smoking rooms in hotels)? Are we allowed to bring our own alcohol? Would they know? Do you they check your bags? How much additional money should we bring for extra stuff (tips, souvenir, etc.)? Any and all information will help. Thanks.

My husband and I are a little tight on cash but still want a nice 3-5 day cruise.
