Author Kevin Yano has worked in the cruise industry, both on board the ships and in marketing and sales.

From his experience in these two areas, he realized that there was a gap in the public’s knowledge about cruising – particularly for those who have cruised very little or never before.

He wrote The Cruise Companion: A Practical Guide to a Worry-Free Cruise Vacation to bridge that gap and help the public get the most out of their cruise vacations.

"I have been selling travel, including cruises, for the past 10 years. As an agent/owner, I found 'The Cruise Companion' very educational as it added to what I already knew about selling cruises. If customers were to read the book prior to booking their cruise, they would be able to work more efficiently with their travel agent. In addition, having the inside tips present would afford customers a better cruise experience. I highly recommend this book for both agents and customers."
