• ~Look what just arrived in my in box~

  We just had a thread, (How cool is this?) about this very topic on my message board,  www.orthodoxchat.com .  If anyone is interested I can put you in touch with the organizer. Sounds wonderful, I wish we could go!

  Orthodox Christian Cruisers — Greetings!

   

  Here is info I recently received from our agent as to what’s left for the cruise to Alaska, May 30 – June 6.  She said the ship is near capacity. 

   

  There are  2 4A’s (inside cabins) at the original price which is $839/person.  They are holding these two cabins for our group for about a week at this price.  Then, it goes up!  There are some 4C’s available at $999.00.  Not bad since you don’t spend much time in the cabin anyway! 

   

  She said there is only one 6A (with an ocean view) is pricing $1,239.  (This price is subject to change until time of booking.)

   

  To fulfill the contract that we initially received, our group needs to sell at least ONE MORE CABIN!!!  Please, help me do this!  Do you know anyone (orthodox or not) who might like to join us for this week? 

   

  This needs to happen SOON.  The discounted prices we were given and have been charged were on the contingency that we have a group with at least eight cabins sold.  We have seven booked.  If we do not sell at least ONE more cabin, we lose part of our original discount and will each be charged an additional $50/person. 

   

  This is offset somewhat by the fact that — with seven cabins sold — the first two people in each cabin will be given a $50 credit to spend on board at the time of the trip.  That perk goes away (I don’t know why) if we sell more cabins.  Nonetheless, we do NOT want to be charged another $50, especially since we were thrown a curve with the State of Alaska cruise tax being added on a couple of months ago.

   

  So, GET THE WORD OUT!  There must be a few others who would enjoy the trip with us!  Let’s fill up the rest of the ship!  Please reply with your thoughts. 

   

  ONLY 125 days TILL WE SAIL!
