Need a "cruise fix"!

[counsdr]

I really need a cruise, but i'm not having any luck in finding one without a huge supplement. I'm limited to the week of Aug. 26th, 2006.

Anybody have any ideas for me?

I'm willing to do a share, i'm just not willing to pay double.

August is still peak season for families with children that don't go back to school until after Labor Day. You're also more likely to get a better single deal, in my experience, if you book ahead rather than try to get a last minute deal. The best single deals I've gotten have been in Nov. and Dec., outside of the holidays. Good luck!

Well, I don't think you are going to find a line where you don't have to pay double. But doing a search for the cheapest cruises that week out of your area, here are some options:

 

6-night NCL Spirit to the Bahamas on 8/27 out of Manhattan

7-night Celebrity Zenith to Bermuda on 8/26 out of Bayonne

5-night Carnival Victory to Canada/New England on 8/26 out of Manhattan

5-night RCCL Grandeur to Bermuda on 8/27 out of Baltimore

7-night NCL Majesty to Bermuda on 8/27 out of Baltimore

Thanks all I got my fix! It'll be short, but it is just "what the Dr. ordered"!

What cruise did you settle on?

I'm going on the Imagination on Aug. 24th. I'm extending it 2 days by visiting with a friend in Ft. Lauderdale who I met on the Grandeur and then cruised with again the next year on the Enchantment.

How do you get the countdown clock to work? I can never figure it out. I'm extremely technologically challenged!

Thanks!
