New Style Tickets from Silversea

It's always really nice to return home after a long day's work to have an envelope with your cruise tickets waiting for you on the doormat.  I had that very pleasure this evening.  My tickets for my next Silversea cruise in September had arrived and they were the first I've received in their new format.  I'm really impressed!

Previously with Silversea, tickets were sent in a large silver box inside a wallet and comprised separate sections/pages for the cruise, air, excursions and luggage tags.  The wallet was a nice way of keeping everything together in your hand luggage when travelling.

Now, we still get the silver box (albeit slimmer) but all the tickets and information are professionally printed in a personalised booklet/journal (in Italy) detailing all your travel information, a day-by-day description of the cruise and information on the suite, ship and amenities aboard.  Printed luggage tags are included.  In my view it strikes a fine balance between detail and not being too bulky (it's about A5 size and mine was around 70 pages) that would put you off carrying it about.

Not only that but I can see myself keeping it on my bookshelf afterwards as a reminder of my travels (in addition to my blog entries of course!
