| Check out the newsgroup rec.travel.cruises. Its pretty much as helpful
for planning cruises as this group is for planning Disney vacations. There
are several travel agents that frequent the newsgroup, any of which will
be very happy to price out a cruise for you. Im guessing that a cruise
specialist may be able to get you a better price than a Disney specialist
- not 100% sure, but theyve been able to get some awesome deals for
people. |

| Hey kids,
My husband wants to go on a week-long Disney cruise for his 50th birthday in
January 2002 (Im on the floor in shock, but thats another story).
Whats the story on pricing for the cruise line? Is there a route to go that
will provide the best price?
I could renew my Disney Club card when it expires this July -- I could
also buy
another Annual Pass for next year. I have an American Express card. And Im
ready to book now, a year in advance.
Whatcha think?
Planning my next trip WAY WAY too far in advance...

| In my parents case, my dad does *everything* for vacation planning except
the packing --
from the research to the budgetting, to making the money, to choosing the
itinerary, (ship in the case of cruises), planning excursions, etc. My
mother does the pre and post trip laundy, ironing and packing, mostly
because she is *neat freak* :-) and watns everything just right. I guess
the packing in this case includes shopping for new clothes if necessary.
If things were left to my mother, I dont theink theyd ever travel, as my
mother doesnt enjoy the fuss and bother of arranging trips, nor the
travel to get there. Once on board (or once in the country, in the case
of land trips), she gets into the of things....but its really my
Dad who **loves** to travel! |
| The air carriers have paid next to nothing to travel agents for years...so I
let my TA do all my travel planning (cruises/tours/etc) except for one
thing. I take care of any air-only booking. Heck, shed get paid only a
couple of dollars on most any air package I make (theyre generally less
than $200). So shed be doing it as more of a courtesy than anything else. |
