Who in your family handles your bookings.

[splintz]

me (male)

[Quilting_Cruiser]

I meant no offense in this poll. I am just trying to find out the male to female ratio of who handles most bookings and if the commercial is targeting the right consumers.

 

 

It's marketing, plain and simple. That isn't their only commercial (and that one's not even a commercial, is it?) and they would target it accordingly. As someone else said, it looks like it's more targeted to an age group than a gender. If they're going for a young clientele, then that's one way to do it. I doubt they'd be playing a commercial with that content during a television show that is targeted toward middle-aged females. It's all about placement. :)

I live in a household with 4 males and myself, female, unless you count my dog and then there's 2 females. I do all the planning, researching, booking.... Once I've booked I ask for opinions from the husband and our three sons.😀

[triptolemus]

my ex-husband would have wanted to take an annual RV trip. Wasn't ever going to happen.

 

Explains why you're divorced... :p

I(male) am the cruise director. I booked before the video and before Pitbull was the godfather. I have not seen the video yet. And I could care less who the godmother or godfather is, I think on one of my ships it was shrek's wife. so stupid. by the way I am older than 60 and like Pitbull.

We plan and make decisions together. I generally do the typing or calling. (Male)

[jeffregpuck]

Me - sometimes I don't even consult my husband.

 

^^This^^ :D

[bfamily4]

being type A, I do all the vacation planning at our house. I then relay all the info to dh. if he were to do it and not me, we would be spending more $$$ than necessary. I am female. Haven't seen the commercial

[gymbomb]

Always me (female). For us (30's plus a toddler) and often for my parents (60s) too.

I (husband ) do all the travel planning for my wife and me and I'm the only one of us on CC. It started when I planned our first cruise to Alaska for our 35th anniversary.

[Angelo_R]

My DW tells me dates or locations she would like to go, and I find the itinerary and watch for deals, then do the booking.

[xriva]

My wife does all the booking. Our PCC is ahead of me on her speed dial list. I am allowed to provide input for excursions, and I am allowed to pay, so I do have a role.

I ( welsh female do all the research / holiday booking ) living in the uk i have never seen an commercial advertising NCL on the tv . By the way , my husband wears the trousers in our house - i just tell him which colour to wear :D:D:D:D

[Taylor95]

I, female, do all of the research, booking & planning details. Usually a few weeks before we leave, DH asks where we are going. I enjoy doing it, but do wish sometimes that my family was more interested & excited about vacation as me.

[FBegg]

I (female) plan all our vacations, if I'm happy, everybody's happy! LOL

[MrsZillaSmith]

My husband and I look at options, then once we narrow it down, he researches, watches prices etc and we make a decision. He does most of the planning and organizing for which I am grateful!

I (female) do every last bit of vacation...everything.

 

The video is a typical Putbull video. It doesn't bother me that it's used as a promotional video for NCL. If young guys are booking cruises based on the assumption that it will be overrun with beautiful, string-bikini clad women, well, a fool and his money are soon parted.

[jaja]

I (female) book all cruises, do all the research and plan all activities. Yes, I consult with my DH and he just says..."good...do it.".;)

[elliotterae]

I plan all our family's vacations. Dats, location, package, travel arrangements. I'll ask for my husband opinion at times, he could rarely care less and has realized that my constant research gets us good deals and great trips. If I left it to him we would never go anywhere. Not that he don't want to go, but he would never actually plan it.

[hpecorari]

If I didn't, my ex-husband would have wanted to take an annual RV trip. Wasn't ever going to happen.

 

OMG - some of the best vacations we've had were in our RV. We've been all over the United States except for Hawaii… And if they would build a road so we could drive there we would have gone there also!

 

The United States is a beautiful place to see and visit. Our best time was leaving Philadelphia going all through Canada and driving through Alaska putting the RV on a ferry through the inside passage to come back to Canada it was in almost 2 1/2 month trip with my then three-month-old two-year-old and four-year-old.

 

I know this is off-topic but seeing the Grand Canyon, White Sands, Niagara Falls driving through California to see in the redwoods and every state in between was just fantastic.

I (female) do everything. My husband and son just come along for the ride.

 

Ditto....if I left it up to my husband we would never leave the backyard:rolleyes: Next up...Getaway...

[MaryZ]

me but that's because I have more patience with planning. Otherwise we'd go but it would cost twice as much :)

[Mr ncl]

I book all the cruises and I am male

[Koshlong]

I research and find the cruise (female); my husband usually does the actual booking.

[js]

Me - sometimes I don't even consult my husband.

 

 

Ditto. I usually tell my dh what cruise is booked on what line and tell him why we want to do it over another lol

 

I book everything and every trip and wouldnt want it any other way.
