  1. The pope's Rome: Where Francis, the 266th pope, will live and rule

    ROME - "SILENZIO!" says the sign just past the massive bronze doors marking the entrance to St. Mary and the Martyrs Catholic Church in Rome, one of the two or three most important churches in Christian history. The sign reminds all that this is a house of worship. Indeed, visitors from around the globe flock to the Piazza della Rotonda to see its austere, columned portico.

  3. Trans-Atlantic repositioning cruises offer value this spring

    After their ships have wintered in the Caribbean, many cruise lines deploy some of them to Europe where they spend the summer sailing in the Mediterranean, the Aegean and the Baltic. These cruises present a fine opportunity as the repositioning voyages generally visit some off-the-beaten-path ports, offer themed perks such as wine and food festivals, and have attractive pricing (sometimes, in addition to special fares, they feature free or discounted air --ask before you book). Another advantage, since the ships cross slowly it is easier to acclimate to European time zones. A couple of caveats, though: these voyages are longer than the usual seven-night runs and feature a number of days at sea. But if passengers have the time, if they relish the thought of crossing an ocean by ship, and if they enjoy lazy days of blue water sailing, the repositioning cruises cannot be beat. And perhaps the biggest bonus of all: many of these voyages sail from Florida and the East Coast so little or no flying is needed on the way to Europe.

  5. Rules for frequent fliers are changing

    Frequent-flier miles have taken me around the world. African safaris, a snorkeling trip on the Great Barrier Reef, a Baltic Sea cruise and treks in the Himalayas have all been possible thanks to airfare paid with miles.

  7. Cruise Port Spotlight: Civitavecchia in Rome, Italy

    Rome, the “Eternal City,” as the saying goes, was not built in a day –and cannot be seen in a day—but often cruise passengers have only one day to enjoy it (unless they are fortunate that their voyage begins or ends in Civitavecchia, the port of Rome, and they are able arrange for an extended stay pre- or post-cruise).

  13. Carnival shifts all sorts of cruise ships in 2013

    With 23 ships and one on the way, keeping track of just where Carnival Cruise Lines sends their vessels can be a dizzying effort, and that may be why Carnival rolls out their ship deployment in pieces.
