that IS a super deal. I am a Hilton Girl too! i wonder if you would have gotten an even better deal if you had called the hotel directly:confused:

Oh I guess it is possible by calling.....but I was good with the $159....I did look on their site and it had dropped to $159.....was going to book but they didn't charge til you stayed so I went with Hotels.com to pay for it now and that add to my rewards there. ;)

I was just wondering, I love meeting new people! I emailed Erin so see what we are looking at for us and to see if we will be able to swing it or not. Hopefully, I will know soon!

the perks are that others are organizing activites and excursions and you can join. It is so nice to meet your cruising friends BEFORE you sail

Pinch those pennies and join the cruisers :D

the only rule is that you have a lot of fun

lol ok! I got an email back, but it confused me b/c the rates were different and she told me in email that the deposit was due in full? I am going to try and call today to see what is going on. Hopefully we can get this straight! lol. I also recieved a cheaper deal through Priceline.com, so I am going to try and figure what is truly the BEST deal with amenities and perks ya know. GRRRR. I won't be satified until I am on that SHIP! LOL!

Prices may have gone up in our group and yes...if you didn't book a year ago with us to get the $25 deposit...the full deposit is due...however Erin can match or beat Priceline or anyone out there....but you may not get the perks and credit listed above for the group....plus another math mistake in booking is many places quote a price and it is higher when you checkout as they add their fees, taxes and port charges.....Erin will give you TOTAL price...so be sure to check that too. :D
