Scott Lara is a cruise expert who's often interviewed on TV. His blog is TheCruiseGenius.com
Scott Lara, aka 'The Cruise Genius,' was appointed president of MilitaryFares.com, a travel site offering discounts to members of the military, veterans and their families.

'For over 10 years, I’ve shared my passion of cruising on my blog, YouTube channel and on TV interviews,' Lara said. 'As a Navy veteran, I’ve always loved being at sea. With over 100 sailings on Holland America Line and over 75 days sailing on Carnival, a cruise vacation is incredible.'

When COVID-19 brought the cruise industry to a standstill, Lara quickly pivoted to covering the all-inclusive resort industry, assessing properties in Jamaica, the Dominican Republic and Cancun.

Sharing cruise expertise with military members

Now, in his newly added role, Lara said he aims to share his knowledge and passion for cruising with the military members who turn to MilitaryFares.com for travel discounts.
