Press Release Summary: Vancouver, BC - For the second year in a row, Cruise Holidays
of Vancouver is awarded the Top Producing Store in the Cruise Holidays chain.

Press Release Body: Cruise Holidays of Vancouver is the 2007 recipient of the Cruise
Holidays Top Producing Store award. This award is given each year to the store with
the highest sailed revenue during the previous year, from July to June.

Held onboard Celebrity Cruises' Mercury from September 23rd to 28th, the 2007 Cruise
Holidays Annual Convention drew members from the 130 stores that make up the Cruise
Holidays chain. President Denis Lim, along with Vice President Blaine Lambert and
Sales Manager Sharl Cline were on hand to receive the prize.

"We're thrilled to receive this award for the second year in a row. We know it
wouldn't have been possible without our amazing Sales and Admin teams", said Lim.

"It's nice to see everyone's hard work pay off", said Lambert.

The store once again gained entry into the exclusive President's Circle - made up of
the top 20 performing Cruise Holidays stores, based on total revenue, revenue
growth, and participation in Cruise Holidays programs.

"Clearly, Cruise Holidays of Vancouver has not rested on its laurels, but instead,
they've worked hard to exceed their customers' expectations which has, in turn,
propelled them to earn this stellar achievement for a second straight year," said
Peter D. Thomson, Vice President and COO of Cruise Holidays.

Members of Cruise Holidays of Vancouver's Sales team were also recognized for their
achievements in the past year. The award for Outstanding Sales Achievement is given
to Cruise Specialists with greater than $1 million US in sales in the past year.
Previous winners Denis Lim, Kirk Olson, and Wes Ewing received the award again this
year and were joined by Edward Infanti and Christina Stobbs.

"We're very proud of all of the team's efforts and it's nice to see them receive
acknowledgement through these awards", said Cline.

Cruise Specialist Christina Stobbs was also awarded the inaugural Knock Your Socks
Off Service Award for her outstanding Customer Service during the past year.
