**Join Our New CC Group Cruise**Southern Caribbean**Carnival Destiny 6/18/06**

[Snowball]

Have you always wanted to cruise the Southern Caribbean, including the beautiful island of Aruba? Have you always wanted to sail with one of the cruise critic groups, but can’t cruise during the school year? Have you been frustrated because you need to sail on a ship that will allow 5 people in a stateroom? Have you already sailed the Southern itinerary and fell in love with it (as I did) and can’t wait to sail it again? Well I just might have the perfect cruise for you!!!

 

Join us as we Discover our Destiny onboard the Carnival Destiny on June 18, 2006. This group is open to singles, couples, families, and people of all ages. Our group pricing is great, especially for a cruise that is at the beginning of the summer cruising season. Plus you can put down an initial deposit of just $25 per person (double guaranteed bookings only – triples, quads, singles and suites require full deposit), but you must act soon - the $25 deposit offer is only available until June 10th!

 

If you've never tried cruising with a group, group cruising adds a whole new dimension to an already fantastic vacation! It's like cruising with a whole bunch of FRIENDS! Join the group for fun and laughter or relax on your own but still enjoy the benefit of great pricing and amenities that come with booking with a group! Your level of involvement with the group is completely up to you – can do to as much or as little with the group as you’d like.

 

The Destiny is scheduled to be refurbished in September, so she should be in great shape for our cruise. And you have plenty of time to watch for an airfare deal to San Juan.

 

So why wait? This is the perfect family vacation, with fantastic pricing and one of the best itineraries out there.
