OMG! I MUST cruise soon...

[floataway]

Okay... It's been since January since my husband and I have been on a cruise. :eek: I'm starting cruise withdrawl and it's not fun. Looking for a cheap cruise in the summer is IMPOSSIBLE...especially close to home (Galveston). Thinking about another 4-day Ecstasy trip to hold us over until next year. Should we hold off and go big...or feed the cruise monster now?

Do what you feel is right.. I personally don't feel any sorrow for you :p

What are prices out of NOLA like right now?

[floataway]

NOLA is running about $100 pp cheaper but by the time you add in the gas $, drive time and parking...it's better to just go out of Galveston.

 

We drove to NOLA 2 summer's ago because it was $200pp cheaper and had a group of 17...That was worth it!:D

I personally like the longer cruises...they really heal the soul (but that's just me). But if you book a longer one, at least you can start looking at excursion options, etc.;) I have now gotten to the point where I have another booked even before I cruise...helps ease that PCD:)

Ever read a post that just looks plain silly :rolleyes:.

I Am Silly :D

I vote you do both. A quickie now, and a nice 7 day cruise in the fall when they are cheaper. :D

Sounds like a great plan. So excited about the Majic being here! :D

Nov. 7 on the Triumph out of Galveston is a great deal. Book it danno!

Gee, I wish I lived so close to a cruise port...I can only cruise every 2 years or so because of airfare etc.

 

I'd do both - just cuz you can:)

I cruised at the end of Jan. and I was booked on an October cruise by the end of Feb. What has taken you so long?:D

 

I like 7 day cruises, but I think you do what you want. However, do you think that if you got one book for a little later and a 7 day that the planning period would sooth your need?

[footballbabe3]

I totally understand and we are cruisers who because of our first cruise

with R.C we almost never cruised again. We just got back a couple of weeks ago and now we are taking our 14 yr old on the next cruise so

he can do the Atlantis. Take a longer cruise and really live it up

then you take your time planning and just go nuts!!:p

I want to know how come it took you so long to start suffering from cruise withdrawal. I get it on the way home from a cruise, and it's only by booking another cruise that I get any relief. This next cruise I will already have one booked so I will only suffer a little. LOL;)
