They say: "The good ships Celebration, Destiny, Dream and Spirit are ready to sail you away to sunny climes in the Mediterranean and beyond, with cruises offered all year round. All ships are Thomson exclusive charters and all gratuities, port fees and tips onboard are included in the price. With cruising, no two days are ever the same and this brochure features over 120 different ports in 40 countries. New for 2012, we have cruises leaving directly from the UK (Newcastle and Harwich) and we’ll be sailing to Scandinavia, the Baltics and the UK."

They say: "The Titan Cruise and Tour brochure includes worldwide holidays that involve both a cruise and an escorted tour on land. This means you get the best of both worlds as you get to sit back and relax as you cruise on the waters and explore onshore with a tour led by your Titan guide and tour manager. All packages include accommodation, all meals onboard the boat and first class hotels for the land tour part. There are also door to door transfers no matter where you live in the UK and all flights are on scheduled airlines.

They say: "On these Thomson Caribbean Cruises there is a team of over 500 people onboard to make sure your dream cruise to the sun is special. Thomson aims to take care of everything, including the little things that make a cruise holiday so good. Like escorting you to your cabin when you arrive, having your favourite pre-dinner drink ready for you and taking care of all the tips onboard."
