Dan we are buying for 5.. all adult fare.... we don't have too much choice of which airport as we are so far away from so many...Winnipeg. is 3 1/2 hours and ...or maybe even Minot would be ok, around the same distance.. or even Regina, if we had too.. so fare its about $ 3000.00 through West jet....just wasn't sure if thats a good fare or not as we have never been East b/4...and kind of worried it will go up..I've been holding out getting seats....as I was hoping it would go down..but so far nothing... Also I think American airlines is around the same fare...and I think they let you pick your seats right online.. Thanks for your help

Just curious if any of the CC members have Cruised with another member(s)? was it unplanned or was it a group Cruise? :smiley:

Have a wonderful time.. You'll get hooked..lol... Update us when you get back

Thanks KarenUk, love to see it.... Can I ask where in the Uk you are from? My dh was born and raised for a while until they came to Canada in Newcastle, so I guess you would say we are Geordie family..lol..or I should rephrase that we HAVE to be a Geordie family..lol... :smiley:

How soon after you book your Cruise do you book your airfare? we are not sure if there will be a price drop.....anyone know ? if the prices to Florida go down in Aug or Sept??? from basically West - East Coast... I'm just not sure when to book, as they are non- refundable...and we are paying close to $ 3000.00 just for airfare now and would HATE to pay anymore Thanks for any info...

Thanks so much Jim...I ordered..and thanks for the heads up on where we should stay.. Great site... :smiley:

LOL....I hear ya....I do the driving but I like to know how to get there and out all in one piece.. lol..plus I may want to look up some USA stores while I'm there..if they just happen to be on our way :wink:

I sent you the link didn't think it was allowed to be posted... HTH :smiley:

Karenuk I aso agree.. we saw some stunning family pics...was nice to see the kids all snazzed up..lol.....even if my son doesn't get a suit , he will be in a shirt and tie... The girls well 1 will be a bit harder not a girly girl..lol..the other would love to wear a gown.... I'm really looking forward to getting them all dressed up nice.. may not happen again, until they have Grad...

Thanks Jennifer I do use MSN maps also..just thought when we are there incase we get lost or decide to go to another attraction we can find our way as we are planning on renting a van... Thanks :smiley:

We bought my dh a suit for our last Cruise, lighter grey he looked terrible in the darker... We did have a gentleman at our table he wore a Tux and had bought it...as they will continue to Cruise for many years to come... I don't think my dh would look good in a Tux, so will stick to wearing his suit... But we did see many men in suits and woman in gowns.some couples were stunning.. :smiley:

I have to pre order maps..takes up to 12 weeks..now I called and they say for what areas..and they didn't know the areas either... I'd like to map from where we are staying, either Miami near airport..or FLL 17th street....haven't decided... but we would like to go the Zoo, Parrot Jungle.. and other attractions.. SO would I need to get maps for both areas ?? Fll and Miami? or is there just one I need so we don't get lost? :wink: I'd hate to order the wrong ones and then have no time to get another... We will fly in and out of FLL.... Thanks for any info...

Remember S Florida can be cool in winter & once in a while the Western Caribbean gets what the locals call El Notre, a cool north wind El Notre...hey we will be -50c... then so anything warmer will be wonderful..lol.. :wink:

I'm not fretting....I was answering a post,....dh & I agreed if we have anymore trouble with this TA we will cancel and book something else ourselves.. Thats all...

Hi well I'm not really stressing over the difference we are paying.., but if the rates drop and we are able to get that rate, sure why wouldn't we take it.. 173.00 is allot...and worth it for US to get that rate... What I don't like is the way this was handled and how we are to be worried about TA's commision...so no we haven't enjoyed this experience it's been stressful and just plain wrong as far as we can tell.... But I will do our own planning for any further Cruises .. I wanted to say it shouldn't matter how much we are paying for the Cruise.. and we paying allot with the air and such.. thousands....which is our choice.. but what a TA makes or doesn't make on us..shouldn't be my concern... If thats the way it works then she doesn't care we are paying thosands of dollars for this.. is she??
