I booked flights for my myself and fiance back in March the same day I booked this cruise. In order to get flights that made sense for time and price, we will be flying in two days ahead of the cruise. The price for flights the day before a cruise was outrageous!!! I forgot that the airline companies have access to cruise port schedules and will set prices accordingly with the anticipation that a lot of people will fly in for cruises. The hotels are knowledgeable of this as well and plot their pricing right along with this.....SMH
