Geneticon
22-05-2006, 21:00

The Gal province is the nicest of all Geneticon's provinces, and has ample resorts for use.
Mount Zeon

We can offer our ports in Paradise City and Redemption. Both places are surrounded by lush rainforests, and have beautiful beaches, as well as numerous resorts. Also, Yellowshield Island is a small beautiful island just off the coast. TPM can build resorts on the island, in exchange for store credit.
Disius
23-05-2006, 00:40
The Holy Republic of Disius offers Oddessus as a vacationing spot. It is our nation's vacation capital, a nice costal city with a warm beach. Currently, it is home to the Grand Praetorian and the Arcanus Romanus, both very large hotels.
The Phoenix Milita
23-05-2006, 13:33
If you have many resorts, we have decided there will be no need to build anymore, so we can start sending liners sooner. 2 more liners are being built now.
Anagonia
23-05-2006, 14:41
The Motherland would be happy to present Phoenix Dynamix with the Freedom Isle Destination Vacation, with two small islands just south of the Anagonia Mainland, already build with resorts, hotels, and the finest dining and entertainment avaliable for our International Brethren!

Port Freedom Isle is open for your business should you choose it to be! We welcome our Phoenix Brethren anytime, anywhere!

New Lincolnia
23-05-2006, 19:39
New Lincolnia does have a number of small to medium sized resorts. They vary in activities and target clientel. For your interests however, we offer either our recently renovated Little Skegness resort, with its 5 star facilities and large numbers of water activites.

Alternatively, there is the more basic but much more out of the ordinary Hinterland Hotel, comprised of several medium sized buildings that feature all modcons but built in the style of the GrecoRomans that conquored our land almost 2000 years ago. The main attraction however, is the well preserved fort and town of that period, as well as the foundations of a bronze age village on the other side of the peninsular.

The choice is yours.
Nerotika
23-05-2006, 20:03
In order to expand tourrism in Nerotika we are opening Juno island to your cruise liner. If you are to ever go into the Miraky Sea (East of Nerotika) you are open to land your liner on Juno Island. We have hotels and tourist spots as well as ruins left over from the Empire's former statue building phase. Also we have war simulation in Juno city, built with the same technology as that built on Sachenn island for the Military Squad Tournament. We do request though that Juno island be your only destination on Nerotika as we have enemies in the Miraky sea and one of the largest Nerotikan military bases is in the gulf as well as above Juno in the dessert.
Nerotika
23-05-2006, 20:06
OOC: I believe this is a good way to set up an RPG...maybe use one of the liners to host a political meeting of the world leaders. Or we could have just a random RP with nothing to do politically.

We will be adding Little Skegness resort and Juno Island as a destinatnion. for now that will be the last we can add. But once we have more liners built we can add more.

OOC: can i rp a waitress?
yes

and a random RP with nothing to do politically sounds good.
Maraque
24-05-2006, 00:47
The Secular Empire of Maraque would like to offer York Island and coastal Darkaan as cruise destinations. They are home to the finest beaches in the Empire and are very warm climates.

24-05-2006, 00:51
I wish to offer New Mombossa City as a destination for your fine cruise line.
Siap
24-05-2006, 01:13
Esmund would make a fine addition to the cruise list, however it would only be desirable in the summer. It is a nice coastal city with beautiful beaches, is home to some of the best seafood in the world, and has some of the most glamorous casinos, and has many exquisite luxury goods available that are illegal in most nations. Unfortunately, the warm climate vanishes in early september.

Angelonisia
24-05-2006, 16:18
Angelonisia would like to offer the tropical island of Livianas, it is one of the most visited tourist destination in angelonisia, it has a beautifull view of ocean, finest white sand, a 5 star hotel and spa, a little town full of tourist destination, it also has the fountain Riviera, a nice place for tourist to enjoy their vacation and peace. we already have a harbour in this place so we would be happy if you add this to your destination.

p.s. we are willing to pay 25% for your next cruiser, if you put livianas as one of your prefered destination

We will be adding locations in The Empire of The Great Britian and Altanar as destiNations. Right now only 3 ships have been commisioned, so only one more destination can be added before the maiden voyage begins. However, tickets aboard the Veronica are still available.

New Basilica
21-04-2007, 00:24
would you be interested in adding new basilica to you schedule? The Tropical island of sabina is the perfect destination at this time of year, with perfect facilities for tourists. A high-speed monorail provides easy access to other parts of the island and an efficient ferry service operates between sabina and the other main islands in the Coruna Atoll.

ooc: tourism is new basilicas second largest form of travel so I thought i should probably get something going :cool:
The Phoenix Milita
21-04-2007, 01:42
We will be pleased to add the destinations as soon as the trimaran cruise ships are launched (soon)

Antarctica123

Antarctica123 has miles of pristine snowy beaches, ski and snowboarding and other winter activities. AND we have actually a tropical climate under the great dome cities with all the summer fun you can imagine. We would love to have Phoenix Cruise Lines pass make a stop at our famous Shackelton Pier resort community. There are plenty of hotels and accommodations already installed so it will be a great stop on the cruise.
The Phoenix Milita
29-04-2007, 20:02
We will add Antarctica123 as a destiNation soon!
Saint Monique
29-04-2007, 20:10
The nation of Saint Monique, with her mysterious islands, would like to offer a port of call in its capital Marsinise.

The Landscape

The thrilling capital of Marsinise, located on the mainland in Hermia, is the quintessential Tropical nation's capital. Bordered to the north with the Thanicka Mountains and the Serenity rain forest, and on the east, west and south with the great blue waters of the Sea of Monique, it is a completely stunning setting.

The Mission District

The quaint Mission district is a sleepy district, with pastel colored buildings and towering palms. The compact houses are right out of a story book. Friendly citizens greet you at every corner, most with a smile on there faces. You are in Marsinise, voted happiest place to live by Zaggat. The citizens live in paradise, in harmony with those around them. Crime is a small issue here, this may be the only city where strangers let strangers in there house, no questions asked. Everyone is everyones friend, just go up to a house, knock on the door and you'll be greeted with smiling faces, guaranteed.

Mission Saint Monique, the largest mission built by the French in there over-seas conquest, is reminiscent of a more Spanish-colonial mission of California, complete with its pink adobe bricks, traditionalist layout and desert plants. Its main greeting hall towers three stories tall. The organ in the back can be deafening, its roof is painted with frescos of hibiscus flowers and roses on it.

Across the street is the rose garden, a two acre garden with many different kinds of sweet roses growing in it. Its the perfect place to have a wedding, they happen every day. At three o' clock, tea is always served, courtesy of the mission. Join the locals in having tea, in the middle of the garden. The garden's nicely laid out roses form a circular pattern around the central gazebo, where tea is served.

Avenue Capital

On Avenue Capital, you can stroll by the three modern museums, and the large inner-city park, Old Henry Park. Or you can visit the capital in the capital district, a 2 mile walk from the water.

The Internationally acclaimed National museum of art (NMA), has very few competitors, in its collections. While most traditional museums focus on traditional renaissance art, NMA focuses on modern and tribal art of the natives. The collection is housed in 4 warehouses along the Avenue, while the main showcase holds the world record for the largest museum-purpose building built.

The Gaudette Museum of Aviation History Helps celebrate Saint Monique's colorful history of aviation. It holds the aircraft of several of its famed aviators such as Naville Suralisk, the first black man to get his aviation license. It also holds the famous Spruce Duck, an attempt to build the world's largest aircraft, back before Howard Hughes attempted the Hercules.

The Monroe institute of filmology is the envy of all filmography museums. The Monroe, the world's second leading film school, has had some very influential movie stars pass through its doors. Stars like Allen Speilburg, son of Steven Speilburg, Samuel Greenburg, a local film celebrity, and Danny Dubin, the famous commercial producer of Hermia have all passed through the Monroe. What you do in the museum is up to you. You can learn about some of the most influential Moniquean filmography celebrities, or get hands on with film equipment, what you do is up to you.

Henry park is the largest inner-city park in Hermia, covering a massive 10 square miles in the heart of Marsinise. In the park, are a couple of popular attractions. The Rainbow trout lake is the only lake in the city stocked with fresh water trout, and the only lake in the country with the trout that you can fish on. The University of Henry Park maintains a botannical center inside the park that houses exotic species of Flora from deep within the islands of Saint Monique, as well as butterflies. The Butterflies were an important part of the Native's beliefs. Hey, maybe one might land on your nose as good luck.

The Capital district.

Get lost in diplomacy as you pass by the capital building. Built in 1869, The capital building is house to the senate, and the national history museum. All of you history buffs would probably want to learn about the independence war. One of the bloodiest wars France has ever had, the independence war claimed over a million lives. The History museum may fascinate you, you have to go and see it for yourself though.

The Presidential palace is unfortunately closed, but is still beautiful to gaze at anyway. The palace was reconstructed after a fire, its modern, glassy architecture makes it look less like a palace and more like a work of modern art. The well-manicured gardens are also closed too, but still nice to gaze at from the street scape.

The Independence memorial is located across the street from the presidential palace, and stands as a tall, 800 foot tall spire, rising above the city. Every 100 feet is a mark, that signifies a year of the war. On the north face, inscribed into the monument, is a list of all those who perished in the war. The marble tower has an observation tower at the top of which you might like to check out. Its sweeping views of Marsinise will not dissapoint you or your spending of 32 Internationals to get to the top.

On the other side of the capital building is the large Feltham memorial. The memorial's center piece is the 200 foot tall Granite statue of Laris Feltham, the first President of Saint Monique. The walls, white granite, have the words "Freedom for all, the bloody Monarchy is no more. Let Everyone live the way they want to, for this is a democracy now, not a bloody Monarchy!" enscribed into the wall. The walls function as a fountain too, with the water flowing down into a reflection pool in front of the monument.

Santa Monica Street

Santa Monica Street, renowned for its first-class shopping is heaven for the shopoholics inside every female and gay man. Santa Monica Street is a haven for the hippies and artistic as well as gays. Shops on this street are individual and unique, you'll never see a shop like ''Sire Lenningrads," a shop that contains various exotic fruits and local books. The brewery is not a bar full of drunks, but a coffee house. Its local coffees are so good, the government has tried to ban the sale of the coffee beans to foreigners, but with no success.

The main plaza on Santa Monica Street is home to the statue of Captain Edward Columbus, a famous French Captain who discovered these isles. The man is the father of Saint Monique, and holds a special place in every Moniquean heart, no one dares to harm the statue, the punishment would be a massive flogging by vigilantes.

The Financial district

The tall towers of the financial district rival that of Wall street. Well, not really, but the pride the 2.6 million residents of Marsinise have of there financial district, you would guess otherwise.

The Marsinise stock exchange is a beautiful, pastel blue building. Its designed to look like a greek temple, it is the perfect place for a buisness man to trade stocks. The Stock exchange is closed to the general public, but you can still go into the gift shop and learn more about the economy of Saint Monique.

Unfortunately, 8 years ago, A car bomb exploded at the base of Rigo tower, and killed 2000 people inside the 37 story building. The act of terror was caused by a radicalist from the interior of the nation. The memorial is a simple green field, with a large fountain in the center. The fountain empties into four reflecting pools. A wall on the north side of the tower contains the names of the 2000 people killed in the attacks.

The Galidy docks

The Galidy docks, built in 1892, houses the only casino in the nation. With BlackJack, Roulette, Poker and other various card games, You could really win it big. The Galidy casino's 5000 slot machines are always busy with people, trying to win it big. And some do. Most don't. The government has tried to shut the casino down, but it usually reopens by the demand of the public. The police are called in, and do go down to the scene, but end up playing blackjack instead. The hotel has 500 rooms in it, but don't try to see if they have vacancy, you must book 3 months in advanced, or you will have no chance of finding a room. They are always booked up.

Galidy also has a little amusement park on it. It has a roller coaster which many locals agree is a tourist trap. Same with the viking ship. And the Bumper Cars. And the 200 foot tall Ferris Wheel. And the Midway. And the Centrifuge ride. And the motion simulator. It doesn't matter to the teens though, its there favorite date spot. Who knows, walk to the end of the pier and you might run into to some teens making out.

MARSINISE, its a city of dreams, a city of love, and a city that you'll want to go to.

Phoenix Cruise Ships

Prince Martin Leichstur II would like to inquire if Phoenix Dynamix can produce a cruise ship much like the ones used in their cruise line as a private vacation vessel for the Prince. This vessel would be expected to be outfitted with some of the most advance and modern technology in sailing and luxury as well as the necessary outfittings needed to act as a VIP vessel.
