FORT LAUDERDALE, Fla. - May 15, 2018 - PRLog -- Porthole Cruise Magazine, the world's leading cruise publication, announced the start of the 20th Annual Readers' Choice Awards. Cruise guests are invited to vote for their favorite cruise ships, cruise lines and cruise destinations in each category. Porthole has also expanded voting this year to include new ways for cruisers to single out the best onboard amenities and their favorite cruise ports.

According to Porthole Editor-In-Chief Bill Panoff, this new addition to the Readers' Choice Awards allows guests to give a full-bodied review of their cruise experiences, from best service to best Caribbean shopping port. "Our readers are the real experts," Panoff says. "Their vacation experiences are invaluable to others seeking the best travel opportunities."

A few of the newer categories include:

·      Best Luxury Ship

·      Best Caribbean Beach Port

·      Best Multi-Generational Cruise Line

·      Best Onboard Technology

·      Best Ship App

·      Best Alaska Destination

·      Best World Cruise

When readers cast their ballots, they are also entered for a chance to win a three-day getaway to the tropical island of Bonaire. Filling out a reader survey offers a second entry into the contest.

The Porthole Cruise Magazine Annual Readers' Choice Awards began in 1999. Readers have until the end of October to cast their ballots at Porthole.com (http://porthole.com/rca2018)/RCA2018.
