It’s Veterans Day, so I wanted to take a moment to thank Carle Hurst from Carle Hurst Dream Vacations in Georgetown, Texas. Carle is the travel advisor responsible for making the recent Special Forces Legacy Initiatives cruise on Carnival Paradise a reality! It was a great honor for all of us at Carnival Cruise Line to host this very special experience that brought together 2,000 Green Berets and their families for an incredible cruise vacation and reunion. Carle’s passion for supporting our military is nothing new. She has been actively attending the Special Forces Association Legacy Initiatives Convention for many years with her husband Michael, a retired Green Beret. With her expertise in travel, creativity and passion for cruises, she had dreamed of bringing their annual convention to a ship, knowing that it would not only be a very unique experience, but they would have the ability to customize every aspect of their convention. Carnival was extremely honored and proud to have been selected as the host cruise line. With 18 months of planning, Carle built a coalition to make this cruise truly exceptional. Working with her Dream Vacations headquarters, her local Carnival BDM and our Charter department, her dream became a reality as active and retired Special Forces set sail with family and friends for their 2024 convention aboard Carnival Paradise this past October. To show her support for the organization near and dear to her heart, Carle graciously offered her services on a complimentary basis. She made her dream a reality! We salute you, Carle! Mission complete!
Congratulations Carle, what an incredible accomplishment! Your dedication, commitment and amazing efforts made this cruise memorable for everyone involved. Our sincere thanks for a job very well done! Bravo Carle!
Having attended this event, I have to say how moved I was by all of it and Christine jumping out an airplane with X Rangers to raise money for Hurricane relief. I can't say enough about Carnival Cruise lines commitment to Veterans and helping people. I am so lucky to be part of the travel industry that truly cares about people and our country.
Congratulations Carle. This event and charter was spectacular, It was such an honor to have it aboard our ship. Thinking about embarkation day and the ceremony on deck still gives me goosebumps. Thank you for entrusting us with this, and thank you for all the hard work and dedication you put into it!
Love this I salute veterans on my train rides thru Alaska as well. Please take a moment and review some of my recent posts while I was in Alaska
