Braemar Fly Cruises to the Caribbean?

[flea b]

Hi, does anyone know if FO are planning to have Braemar back in the Caribbean during the winter season in the future? I know it's not throughout 2012/13. Many thanks, Fiona x

They have withdrawn this ship from the Caribbean and it is programmed to cruise elsewhere over the Winter 2012/13. I understand that they do not intend to position the ship there in the future.

However, if fuel and aviation costs were to fall significantly things might change.

i earlier ask the same question, my replys from cruisers and fo travel agents is no they are stopping fly cruise after this year

as i said in my thread this is in my opionion a big mistake we went in april 2010 and wanted to book on ship for 2013 but was told they are not fly/cruise any more we have now booked with azamara quest for nov 2013

i asked focl for a answer berore booking 2013(we only do small ships)

quess what no reply,a shame as we loved the bremar.

Having just returned from the Caribbean today you may imagine it was a hot topic of discussion on-board over the last 2 weeks.

 

The problem seems to be that even at the current prices they are not filling the ship so simply raising prices to allow for increased flight costs will not solve the problem.

Thanks for replying, it's as I thought. I will still stay with Fred :) xx Shame about the Caribbean though, could only ever go for 2 weeks! xx
