Just don't go on 3 cruises in 3 months. 
We're in! Have an AD.

| We're also looking at the Jade for next winter -- but the Western Caribbean itinerary -- haven't done that since 04 on the Dawn (and missed most of the ports due to a back injury) so I'm excited to finally see this itinerary back. Can't wait to get back on NCL!!!!!

Book soon or risk a fare increase. Prices on this cruise jumped $100pp between yesterday AM and PM.
Count us in we booked 2 AFs yesterday.

| I hope you all purchase the $250 deposit program onboard. It really made this easy and you get $350 in value. They give you a 100 obc and still credit your new booking with the full $250. Get to count $100 twice.

| Unfortunately I can't book this cruise right now, I'll have to wait at least until after we go on the Dream in July (which we also haven't booked yet...) -- and do so with the FCCs. By then we should have $1000 in NCL points so it won't be quite so painful... Last edited on Thu Feb 21st, 2008 07:42 pm by Welove2cruise2

We did buy this program so we will use it as soon as you all book your 2010 cruise

It's right here - I just booked Aft AF. Now lets see if work and cruises can play well together again.
It is going to be another fun roll call and I am sure a bunch of get togethers before the cruise. Now you have to make sure you actually go on this one this time! Ok who else from the OGGs can we persuade to join us???
You did a good job getting Chris and Jimmy to go on the last one, I think you should try again for this one!

It's a great deal and we bought one. We'll probably buy another on the summer cruise.

Amy, the house will be finished and I'm sure they will not be building again that soon. Yes, go after them.

I know Chris has mentioned a Europe cruise next. We will have to really bribe her with something good!

We will have to plan that early. I think you have one year to book and 30 months to cruise.Last edited on Thu Feb 21st, 2008 08:07 pm by shoreguy

Maybe we should think about the F3???? Have pictures or web cams been found for the building? We were told the keel is laid and work has begun.

Too bad, we're on the cruise after you! (And you're right about the prices. The BA has jumped over $400 pp since we booked in August!)
WeLove2Cruise2, maybe you'll join us!

I only wish I had the opportunity to buy into this program. Trust me, we will once we get onboard. Actually, we're trying to do something this summer, out of NY. Hopefully, this won't be one of these programs that ends before I can get it.
Hey, if we make it to NY. We plan on spending a few days ahead of the cruise. DH and I have been to NYC many times on business so have seen the sites but we plan on coming in early anyway. I saw you guys planning a reunion in March (I think), maybe you guys should plan another for the summer and we can all meet then.

I AM BOOKED !!!!!!!!!! Its official I booked today. I booked through the Casino and I got over $600 off the price and a drink for free in the Casino Card. Thanks to Deb and Win for telling me about this.
I think I booked the same room we had on the Gem. The Jade is the sister ship, correct?
Has anyone heard from Chris and Jimmy. While we were on the Gem I think they said they would book a winter cruise again. It was at The Sexy A's Martini clinic I heard it. I could be wrong, I had a few
Tell Liam and Spencer Aunt Leslie is ready to shell hunt. I know its early, but I would love to do Grand Pineapple again.

And sail away is my birthday.

They saw this and laughed. I know its early, but I would love to do Grand Pineapple again. That was a great day, we'd do that again, I guess we have to reserve Sean Beezer as ourdriver. He loves Amy, he hugged her at the end of the trip.

I'm sure there will be a few get togethers throughout the year. We're sailing the Spirit out of NY this summer.

It was a good day, plenty of fun, food and drink. Sun and shade, whichever you prefer.

Quite right Jim. So the Gang is going to have to decide 2010 asap. It seems far but as we all know they roll around pretty fast. Wonder if its our advancing age ???

I just did some wishful thinking and did a VIRTUAL reservation for this cruise.
Dreaming is good for the morale 
I even chose my cabin.....
