The world's first 24-hour television channel dedicated to the growing trend of cruise holidays has today launched.

Cruise1st.tv on Sky Channel 680 features the latest holiday deals and consumer cruise news. In addition, the channel will feature in-depth destination guides visiting the ports and cities that are popular destinations for cruise ships.

Programming will be presented by some of the UK’s leading cruise experts and enthusiasts including Derek Marks, Emma Redman & Neil Newton. Plus, utilising the latest in broadcast technology, the channel will provide up to the minute LIVE deals via an on screen ‘breaking news’ style ticker.

Cruise1st’s International Project Manager, David Rowlinson, said “after 2 years of successful broadcasting on 3rd party channels, we decided to take the next logical step, making a major investment in purchasing our own Sky EPG. Now broadcasting 24/7, we will be able to bring viewers an unrivalled selection of cruise holiday deals accompanied by our unbeatable price promise. Our programming has been designed to engage both experienced cruise fans and interested first-timers alike.”
