[GoinCruisin]

LOL...I know...but I've come to the realization that I probably wasn't meant to cruise in the fall :( and no of you'uns wants to cruise in the winter. :o

Oh HUSH! January is WINTER silly!!! And I know it's even winter where you live :p And Duck has this one in March, and we are looking at Freedom for March as well... so you have NO EXCUSES mister!!!!

Duck, they may be taking reservations, but just not have the site updated... that happened with us on S&S...

Hence the phone call. :)

 

Randy said last night that Laura wasn't around this week anyway. This does have to go through Laura right.

Yup! She'll be back next week... so it will probably take some time to get caught up.

My PVP called me yesterday and said that there has been a delay in pricing.

[big_duck]

Thank you so much for the update. :D

[big_duck]

I called Carnival this morning and I was told that the bookings are not yet open. I was also told that they should be open sometime next week. :(

 

I did not ask what the delay was about because I am smart enough not to ask someone a question that is obviously way above their pay grade. ;)

Hi Big_Duck

A couple questions:

What is a Cruise Critic Group Cruise?

Who eligible?

And who is Flat Stanley?:confused:

AL

[big_duck]

A CC Group Cruise, is a group cruise led by one or more CC members.

 

http://www.cruisecritic.com/interests/groupcruise.cfm

 

With a group cruise, you get group pricing plus ammenities (perks).

 

Anyone who wants to come is eligible.

 

Flat Stanley was someones class project

Hi

 

We would be interested in a group cruise. Have not sailed the Triumph

yet and would love to sail out of NO. This group cruise is for families

right? If so we may extend the invitation to our children and grandchildren

to join us.

Welcome aboard. This cruise is for anybody who wants to come. One of the nice things about these groups, is that you can participate at any level you want.

 

Nothing is official yet, we are still waiting for Carnival *tap tap tap*.

[big_duck]

Arrrrggghhhh! So close and yet so far.
