According to this YTB Blog Site, it appears that NCL was not just a vendor, but they were actually a part of YTB. This fact was apparently ommitted from any of their Securities Exchange Commission (SEC) filings, but was disclosed in this latest "News Update".Other new information gleaned from this latest release include:
- Princess Cruise Lines will now be sailing from Baltimore, MD
- Carnival Cruise Lines loves to make money in this economy
- Kevin Sheehan (President and CEO of NCL) is reportedly being fired for his poor decision
- For cruises anywhere (other than on NCL, RCCL, Celebrity, or Azamara and to Hawaii) please contact the company
And since the post will be removed in a matter of minutes, I am posting it here:
News Update
Norwegian is no longer a part of our company. They chose in this economy to drop us as a vendor for them. Don't really no why they did drop us but I guess more cruises going to the others . All these companies going out of business and companies looking for business. Well I guess their CEO will be fired soon. So if you want a cruise anywhere I will be able to help you with that. But not on Norwegian. Because my blog is an honest one you can read the details on www.thefactsaboutytb.com0 comments
But we do offer other cruise lines that love to make money in this economy. Living on the east coast I was interested in doing some group cruises from Baltimore on Norwegian but now I won't be doing that. Because I wanted closer ports people can drive too. And guess what Carnival, Princess is going to get a lot of my business.

This year YTB is a shoe in for the "most embarassing agency award." Congrats TM!
ReplyDeleteIsn't Mom great?!!
ReplyDeleteYes she is.
ReplyDeleteOh Traveling Mom,
ReplyDeleteHere we are again.....
NCL was never a part of YTB. You should know that. Not "no" that,as you posted on your blog, but "know" that.
I am just stunned that YTB allows this to continue. Stunned. Between TM's blog, and the false Christian job ad John discovered this morning, you would think they would fall over dead from embarassment.
I am surprised that GOD has not struck down John for his blatant disrespect for human dignity.
ReplyDeleteJohn is an ordained minister, God would never do such a thing!
ReplyDeleteJohn,
ReplyDeleteAm I missing something? Why do you imply that we can't sell cruises to Hawaii?
Princess, Holland America, heck even Carnival has a Hawaiian cruise.
"I am surprised that GOD has not struck down John for his blatant disrespect for human dignity."
ReplyDeleteAnd, I am surprised that God has not struck you down for your lies and disrespect.
Since John is an ordained minister doesn't that mean that everything he says is true? I mean, everyone seems to think that Coach is 100% honest because he used to be a minister. Wouldn't the same go for John?
ReplyDeleteNo Kate. Coach actually cares for John whether you believe it or not (I have heard it from his mouth). I do believe Coach to be honest in his intentions. Is he perfect? No and he will admit it. Coach has done way more for people than John will ever dream of but that is only by John's choice. One of the signs of a Christian is by their fruits. No matter what you feel you think about Coach, John is pretty clear cut (in my opininion). No fruit. At least not evidenced by this blog. Again, only by John's choice. How many "ordained ministers" have a blog that allows porn on his blog (amongst other things) and make comments like "wtf"? Oh well. What comes around goes around. AKA "what you reap so shall you sow."
ReplyDeleteFM, there is no porn on this site. Nice try.
ReplyDeleteLet me ask you something. What would you think about someone that admitted that being unethical was fine as long as you win in the end? Good Christian? Good intentions?
"I do believe Coach to be honest in his intentions. Is he perfect? No and he will admit it. Coach has done way more for people than John will ever dream of"
ReplyDeleteFiremedic if Coach is so honest as you say please explain to me his trying to fleece his own Church with a bogus oil additive scheme that was shut down by the AG's office and him attempting to sell shares to his congregation in Elvis's plane, "The Lisa Marie," which was another scheme of his. And, please explain how he can keep recruiting people when only a small % makes any money.
Just because he is an ordained minister does not make him on the up and up. Plenty of ordained minister's in trouble with the law, abusive and abused kids.
Do you research on the guy he is a con man and hides behind the cloth.
While you are at read what the locals in his hometown say about him in the Alton Telegraph and the other local papers. Not too many people have a high opinion of him or YTB.
I see Mom's site was pulled......again!
ReplyDeleteHow many times is this now?
Nah, it is still there. urbancitytravel.blogspot.com. She changes the content left and right but the site is till up. This week she is an MSC Specialist
ReplyDeleteJust checked and it's gone.
ReplyDeleteThe compliance people sure are earning their pay keeping after her...
Sorry I had a typo in the address. It is still there (the did not spell travel correctly:
ReplyDeletehttp://urbancitytravl.blogspot.com/
MSC specialist. Thats funny. A friend of mine is a rep at MSC, I'll have to forward him the link for a good laugh.
ReplyDelete"FM, there is no porn on this site. Nice try.
ReplyDeleteLet me ask you something. What would you think about someone that admitted that being unethical was fine as long as you win in the end? Good Christian? Good intentions?"
John you know you allowed the link to the porn. Let's not even go there in trying to deny that one. And Coach never said it was okay to be unethical on that call like you said. That is something you are taking way out of context and flat making up.
Real Travel Whatever - You too blow things out of proportion. You took the writer of an article's word for the gospel of how things happened. Ever bothered to try to get the other side of the story? I doubt it. And you accuse YTB'rs of not being able to think for themselves.
Firemedic-I find it amusing that you take every word out of Wood River to be the gospel truth when it is not.
ReplyDeleteAs to the comment about being a good Christian ROTFL at that one. I guess as a Christian it makes it ok to scam people and make money off of them for your downline? I really want to know what religion you belong to that condones this?
I find it amusing that you take every word out of Johns or Peters mouth to be the gospel. So I guess we are even in our opinions Real Travel Whatever.
ReplyDeleteYea firemedic whatever. At least I am intelligent enough to think for myself and make a decision unlike you who drink the Kool Aid.
