NEW YORK, April, 2005 - A two-week Mediterranean cruise this fall aboard a
luxury European ocean liner at rate reductions of 20 percent and free air is the
latest special offer from Peter Deilmann Cruises for U.S. travelers on the
five-star MS Deutschland. The 15-night cruise, from Lisbon to Venice,

This cruise of the 513-passenger “Grand Hotel” Deutschland departs
