Who would be interested in a Cruise Crazies Group Cruise out of Miami or Fort Lauderdale a 3 day or 4 day cruise. Let me know. They are having great deals on the 4 day Carnival Destiny this summer, before they refurbish it and change the name to Sunshine. The 3 day Carnival Imagination is a lot more expensive now because of all the upgrades on the ship. I'm not familiar with Royal Caribbean if anyone would like to sail on their ship. Let us know the rates. The 3 day Norwegian Sky also has great deals. What would all of you prefer?

We're always looking for new cruisers to join us. There are many ways you can do your part in helping spread the word. Here are some of them, please add any additional ideas you may have! 1. Share Our Content - Share our forum topics, cruise news articles, photos, blog posts, and other site content via social media. Not only is the link broadcast to all of your online friends when you do this, but it also helps improve our search engine rankings. Ultimately, the more people who "share" our content-rich pages, the more potential traffic and new users we will receive. If each of us could "share" at least 1 of our pages each day on Facebook alone, the amount of additional exposure would be tremendous! How: Click one of the following buttons, located below the content you wish to share: Alternatively, click one of the social sharing buttons below the photo of an article: 2. Like Us on Facebook - Every time someone new "Likes" us on Facebook, that specific action of them clicking the "Like" button is broadcast to all of their Facebook friends. In other words, if someone has 500 Facebook friends and they "Like" us on Facebook, their friends will see this and as a result they may also click the link to CruiseCrazies, like it themselves, and may ultimately visit our site and become an active member. At the end of the day, the more "Likes" we have on Facebook, the more exposure we receive. So please "Like" us if you haven't already, and ask everyone you know to do the same! How: Visit our Facebook page and click "Like" - And ask everyone you know to do the same! This is what the button looks like: 3. Follow us on Twitter - The more people who follow us, the more people will take notice to that, and could also become followers on Twitter. Each time CruiseCrazies publishes a "tweet" other Twitter followers may "re-tweet" our original tweet, essentially re-posting our message to their followers as well. That's why the more followers we have on Twitter, the better. How: Visit us on Twitter and click "Follow." Just like Facebook, ask everyone you know to do this too. What the button looks like: 4. Forward Our Email Updates - Each CruiseCrazies eNewsletter contains the latest site announcements, most popular content, and helpful information for cruisers. It's distributed to all subscribed members, but there's no reason why non-members shouldn't receive it as well.

This is tough to answer.......You should be able to use a Next Cruise for OBC with any travel agent. The only problem I see with it is if the group has some sort of a discount rate and OBC, then you may not be able to use it. I'm sure there is fine print somewhere on the groups website. I would look into that.

If you want to dress formal, go crazy. The me and wife always love to get all dressed up in our best. She has a formal dress and I have a tux. We always get our pictures taken from the staff photos, makes for some great memories. But on the other hand if you hate dressing up or a suit and tie is everyday wear for you, skip the formal just bring your swim gear or casual cloths and have a great time. Really a cruise is about being flexible. You and you husband celebrate it with what makes you excited and happy. No matter is its in your swim gear or tuxedo and formal dress!

HI there! I've been on several RCI cruises and I can tell you that the formal nights are usually more semi-formal than FORMAL. There will certainly be some who are in full-on formal wear like tuxedo's and evening gowns, but for the most part the women are dressed in a pretty dress or a nice skirt or pant suit and the men are usually in slacks with a tie with or without a sport coat, suits seemed a little less common, especially on our last cruise. The point is, you're on vacation. You'll never be turned away if you are dressed respectfully. If you don't want to dress up at all, you can always go to the Windjammer for dinner where the dress is casual every night. Have fun!
