Pole . . . Single cruisers on Carnival

[BeyondKen]

I am going to sell my 100 shares of Carnival stock, and book a Royal Caribbean cruise.

Just did a "mock" booking on a studio cabin on NCL's EPIC for March 2011, when I would most likely be cruising . . . $1,164.30 w/all fees and taxes.

This is, of course, through their website, which I never do even with Carnival. This seems to be slightly less than a 1A on the SPLENDOR, but would require AIR to Miami which would blow it out for me.

I book last minute (3-5 days before the cruise) and through a website that frequently has blocks of cabins it needs to "dump", so the true test of this new Carnival pricing will be when I want a cabin on the SPLENDOR or the SPIRIT just before the cruise date. :)
