Three days - fly on Sunday - cruise on Monday (last day of work today - drop the dogs off for their holiday at the pet hotel tomorrow)

On the Sky to Panama Canal departing 5 March and just got upgrade email Oceanview to Balcony... 27 days out. Ship was sold out in all categories except Inside last time I looked a couple of weeks ago. I did bid the maximum ($480 Canadian each) but it was still MUCH cheaper than booking a balcony at time of booking. Also using NCL Air - got decent flights and again MUCH cheaper than booking same flights direct (these were definitely best flights available from Ottawa to Miami and have bids in for Air Canada upgrades as well... )

We received our flight info on Christmas Day for our March 6 Cruise to Panama Canal - 70 days til the flight and 71 days til the cruise. Ottawa to Toronto 8am - 9.18am Toronto to Miami 10.30am - 1.48pm (the day before the cruise so a pleasant afternoon wandering the streets is planned) (perfect flights) Miami to Newark 3.10pm - 6.26pm Newark to Ottawa 8.29pm - 10.09pm (not my favourite but totally acceptable) Saved over $1400 from if I had booked them myself. So can't complain about that. And I can bid for an upgrade on the Air Canada leg (haven't looked into the United return leg).
