    Guess that means Sabrina will be over to Next Cruise to book the S2S with a stop at the Effy store as well 
    Sounds like a win win to me and Hubby gets his flowrider

    Dreams do come true so surely Sabrina will have her wish granted from the cruise genie
    As rates continue to increase across the board with cuts in services and now even more than normal for Solo travelers that has been rambling across the Internet, it definitely could change ways in cruising or even with which cruise lines some of us sail.
    Fact is we are all always sailing by reading everyone's Live Blog and that is rewarding for each person to take the time on their cruise to bring us all along in for their venture.

    Solo cruising has been a HOT topic this last week.  I have sailed Celebrity many times solo and now with this new philosophy of charging excessively is really churning with many people across the board because of their excuse saying it's supplement fee for what 2 people would spend onboard.
    Even did a mock booking with Royal as solo and rate was at least $475 higher than double occupancy.
    It's really disappointing to say the least because it's putting a stigma against Solo travelers.  I know Facebook has blown up to CEO of both Celebrity and Royal over this craziness.
    Reality is what gets spent on a cruise solo or as couple in a stateroom goes both ways.  Some people don't spend an extra dime once onboard nor tip any crew members so how their realization is losing money from solo traveling alone makes no sense.
    It's gonna make people look at other cruise lines who welcome Solo travelers 
    I can't wait til board Celebrity in few weeks to speak to concierge about it and hear their response.

    Will there be enough 🍸 and Ranger Cookies onboard for Girls gone wild with the rest of the clan.... 
    This means Sabrina will have to venture into the WJ to report back to us.  Just not peak and run away
    Suite lounge here they come
    Can't leave behind Ashley's mom either as she will definitely be on board
    Are the genie's ready for this epic Girl's gone wild venture with the rest of clan?
    Lots of pics of the cabins, food and menus of new venues. 
    What type of cabins and location on ship did everyone book?

    Just saw on news people waited 4 hrs to get thru TSA even with precheck and says next busiest travel day will be Friday.  Looks like travel for News Years Eve cruises is going to be chaotic with weather, delays and now TSA issues

    Plenty of independent tours.  Barcelona there is Spain Day tours and there is hop on hop off bus.
    Athens has options as well with independent and hop on hop off bus.
    You will find better options and cheaper than thru cruise line.
