Kermit Duhon, former owner of Travel Machine—A Full-Service Travel Agency located at 102 Westmark Blvd. Suite A, Lafayette, LA 70506, explains why he is taking his family on the KTDY cruise.

Of all the ships I've been on in my career, which have been many, I've had the most fun and best overall experience on Royal Caribbean's Allure of the Seas than any other ship I've ever been on. She's one of the largest ships in the world with amenities that go over and beyond. The staff is generous, kind, fun and quick. The Allure is designed to move people with ease. Even with thousands of people onboard, there are hardly any lines, no crowds. Everything on this ship flows easily. The entertainment is second to none. The restaurants are all amazing. One of the best meals I've ever had in my life was on an Allure cruise. And the best part is that right now, you can get on this fabulous ship for the price of a cruise on a small 30-year-old ship from a lower quality cruiseline. This is the perfect time to take my family on a much-needed vacation. The memories we will make on the KTDY cruise will be priceless. I can take my family on any ship to any destination in the world. I have chosen the Allure and the KTDY cruise because I know the quality of the ship and the wonderful people KTDY attracts. There's no better cruise in the world for the price right now. -Kermit Duhon, Former Owner of Travel Machine Travel Agency
