Many of you know Jamie Aldrich, who always has a smile on his face while greeting you at our events on the Post Thanksgiving Cruise.

Unfortunately, Jamie’s home was severely flooded during yesterday’s devastating storms in Central Indiana. Because his home is not located in a designated flood zone, he did not have flood insurance, which means the damage and losses are not covered.

Jamie has been such a wonderful part of our cruise family, always there to help and make others feel welcome. Now he could use a little help from us.

A GoFundMe has been set up to help Jamie as he begins the difficult process of cleaning up, replacing what was lost, and getting his home back together. If you’re able to contribute, I know it would mean a great deal to him. And if you’re not able to donate, sharing the link would be greatly appreciated.

Let’s show Jamie some of the same kindness he’s shown so many of us over the years. ❤️

She’s back — and if you’ve sailed with us before, you already know why that’s exciting.

Kelly Carey has been performing for John Heath Travel guests for many years, and she has become a true favorite with our groups. Her powerhouse vocals, quick wit, and ability to command a room make every show feel personal, electric, and unforgettable.

On our LGBTQ+ Danube River Cruise, Kelly will bring the energy with a high-octane night of music.

This is more than a river cruise. It’s great destinations, great people, and entertainment our guests talk about long after the trip is over.
