daiB Posted May 1, 2007 #1 Share Posted May 1, 2007 Well here we are half way through the booking process for 2008, How are you coping??? It is all very stressful, will we, wont we. Some of the popular cruises look to be filling up very quickly and the Ventura effect does not seem to be releasing many cabins in the other ships. I think the lure of OBC and free parking is bringing in the early bookers. Well three days to go and our day for concern is Thursday. I will be sitting by the phone waiting for the call, coffee in hand, jumping when it rings, and then swearing when someone wants me to take part in a telephone questionnaire. It will be hell.:( What a sad *********** I am.:( But it is still great fun:D:D. All part of the Cruising experience. Happy Cruising :cool: Dai Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KarenR_UK Posted May 2, 2007 #2 Share Posted May 2, 2007 My day was Monday - got the call at 10:30 - all booked in my first choice cabin But does that mean my first choice cabin is a dud :D I shall find out in 51 weeks :D Hope all goes well Karen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dak Posted May 2, 2007 #3 Share Posted May 2, 2007 daiB, Why have you included a picture of your wife in your post? I assume, of course, that she is your wife. You are now going to try to wriggle out of this by claiming that it's one of these new adverts, are you not?:D David Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bandit0000 Posted May 2, 2007 #4 Share Posted May 2, 2007 Good luck daiB, Hope you get your first choice. After experiencing the Ventura pre registration, I know how stressful it can be. Hope they get in touch with you quickly on Thursday! Lisa:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

daiB Posted May 3, 2007 Author #6 Share Posted May 3, 2007 Concern over, got the cruise booked J813 to Venice on 5th July 2008. We have a central cabin on C deck which reduces my walking:), second sitting and a table for 8.:D:D I am a happy bunny now.:) Very Happy Cruising :cool: Dai Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Welshgal Posted May 3, 2007 #10 Share Posted May 3, 2007 I was prepared to stay by the phone on Mon 30/4 for Aurora bookings, but my TA rang Sat 28/4 to say I was booked in on my first choice cabin for Ancient Glories. I'm not Gold either - unfortunately! Only 35% supplement too! Got another 2 P&Os in between then & now though to ease the wait. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
