About this website and Cruiseland USA Inc. dba. CMEDoctorCruises.Com

Cruiseland USA has been helping travelers with cruises since it was founded in 1989. President Eppie Epstein also known as the "Would-be-Traveler" has been producing and hosting a Travel Talk Radio Show in Southern California called the "Cruise Club" since 1985. While his radio show went through a variety of changes, it was still the same motivation - to inspire people to plan ahead to get the best deal on cruises and cruise tours. In the '80s, a large portion of the show was spent dispelling the myth that cruising was basically for the old and very rich. In the '90s that myth became history... Now in the 21st Century Cruising has become the vacation of choice by all classes of people; from the young and the old, families and friends and esspecially for Professionals from all over the world.

Eppie, as most everyone knows him, has been responsible for some major marketing innovations in the cruise industry including the creation of his radio show. He also co-authored a travel book titled, "Cruise Secrets Exposed". Mr. Epstein began his travel career promoting "theme" cruises which attract special interest groups such as soap opera fans, who can rub elbows with their favorite stars. Then he packaged seminar groups aboard cruise ships with famous personalities. In 1989 CRUISELAND USA was opened in Los Angeles and Incorporated in the State of California in 1991. As a Cruise Only Agency it attained National Account Status with most Major Cruise Lines. Over the past several years, Mr. Epstein has also been consulting some of the country's leading independent agencies, and was commissioned to create by several Vacation Destinations, Tour Operators and Cruise Lines some new and innovating concepts. Specially packaged affinity Tours & Cruises are being created in cooperation with Nationally Certified Organization in Washington DC. Newest of the affinity themes are several First Responders; EMT; Firefighter and Peace Officer Vacation Cruises.

Currently in cooperation with University at Sea / Continuing Education Inc (CEI) management our personnel collectively bring over 100 years of unique expertise in development, organization and implementation of professional and educational conferences in locations throughout the world. Working with organizations in the United States and abroad, including Universities, Medical Schools, Medical and Insurance Organizations, Public Television Stations, World Affairs Councils and Divisions of the National Institutes of Health has allowed CEI personnel to develop a broad range of expertise. With implementation of careful, courteous and professional business practices, we have developed positive relationships with organizations and speakers of the highest caliber.

For 2009, Mr. Epstein intends to continue to move CRUISELAND USA Inc. and CME Doctor Cruises into the forefront of the new digital economy. Utilizing the newest of technologies, we will continue to use much of the same creative dynamics from our successful history to make us a leader in Cruise and Tour Affinity Groups.

While the Travel Industry and the National & Worldwide economy are struggling to recover from unfortunate times, we plan to do what we do best, as we all will and have in the past, in the greatest country in history. CRUISELAND USA Inc. is proud to be American and we said that over 20 years ago when we created the name of our company.
