Baltimore is getting the Pride....so that should help. :) (And there is rumor that Wilmington, NC has a brand new port looking for action!)

crusinpsychRN Posted July 8, 2008 #3 Share Posted July 8, 2008 Tampa needs to change it up a bit. How many times can you do Eastern, or Western? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Catrin Posted July 8, 2008 #4 Share Posted July 8, 2008 The strange thing, it has always been CHEAPER for us to FLY to Florida and sail out of Miami, or FLL, ... then to drive to NYC and sail from there. Supply and Demand I suppose. It will be interesting to compare the prices for next year. I bet NYC will be the choice for quite a few in the Northeast. Now, if we can only get a ship to sail out of Boston! Catrin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cruisin' Ron VA Posted July 8, 2008 #5 Share Posted July 8, 2008 We have a brand new terminal here in Norfolk. The problem is that the choices suck as far as destinations. I do think Baltimore was a good choice for Carnival as it could draw people who want to drive from NY, NJ, PA, DC, MD, DE and VA. Perhaps the cruiselines will realize that people are less willing to fly now due to cost and will start basing ships in other places. Its a win win for everybody.
