Never saw that..the only one I saw was the Fall and Winter sale with reduced deposit, and it is the rate we are already paying :)

Just trying to get some others to join at the lower rate...the more the merrier ya know !!!!

[IslandToIsland]

Oh my Gosh Suzi another you ??? Hunny I thought that mold broke girlfriend !!!! Thank you for your very kind words that is very nice of you <3 smoochie smooch back at ya !

 

Nope no one needs to worry about being a solo cruiser in our group and oh BTW we randomly just meet new people on board and recruit them into our group. Right Tracey and Dan ? Mallory and Larry oh and remember Howard and Kathy you guys jumped on board last minute on the Dream didn't you ? Now look at you ....you got a taste of the group and you are up for more fun with us and doing it again.

 

That is right, such great additions!!

Finally made full deposit on the cruise! I chose the military rate because it was so much cheaper for the 1A and I get $50 OBC. Because I went with the military rate I won't get any of the group benefits but hope I can still hang with the group. I'm traveling solo and would love to experience a group cruise.

Vitality SOOOOO glad to hear you did decide to stay with the cruise. Did you still book thru CruCon just at the military rate vs. the group rate ?

 

Also do you need a hotel ? If so please email me *****@aol.com and I will give you the info on where everyone is staying or feel free to hit me up on FB Amy Serson. Plus we have some other fun sites for you to visit.

Yes, I still booked through CruCon just with the military rate. Thought I was going to have to cancel because she was saying she couldn't see the rate I was seeing. I said "I'm looking right at it"...lol. Anyway, it wasn't Kathryn not sure if she was out today or what but either way, I'm booked. I haven't been able to pull the reservation up on Carnival but my room is no longer showing available so I feel confidant it was booked properly.

 

I was told that I had to file my Future Cruise Certificate directly with Carnival. Does that sound right?

 

I'll email you about the hotel. I think I will come in the night before since it is February and there is a risk of snow.

As long as they told you that you were still booked through the official Cruise Critic group you are fine it doesn't matter what rate you use.

 

I did mine the other night and I am emailing Kathryn to make sure she deducts that from what I owe.

 

I will look for your email then.

 

Glad to have you on board :)

is that thru Carnival or private ? Austin and I went horseback riding once a couple years ago when we went to that dude ranch for his work.

[uffdafla]

Thru Carnival, the 10:30a to 12:30p time slot. We have been to the Cayman island several times, this trip trying something different. Our days hours on the island are 7A to 4P. still have some time to wonder the shops.

I will see what Austin says. We were only there once and our time was cut short arrived late and had to tender on the back side of the island so our time on seven mile beach was limited. hopefully this time we dock nearby
