Lapbandtalk Cruise 2007!!! Official Sign Up And News

The cruise chosen has been: (please read carefully)

June 17th (7 NIGHTS) Royal Caribbean Cruise Lines sailing of the Rhapsody of the Seas. Ports of call: Galveston, Texas; Cozumel, Mexico; Roatan, Honduras; Costa Maya, Mexico; Yucatan (Progreso), Mexico; Galveston, Texas

Cabins held: (first deposits will have their choice of the cabins available)

- 15 Category N (inside, double) at a per-person rate of $651.96

- 1 Category K (inside, quad) at a per-person rate of $701.96 for the first two and $441.96 for the 3rd and 4th -- this was the ONLY inside triple/quad left

- 5 Category I (outside, double) at a per-person rate of $771.96

- 2 Category F (outside, quad) at a per-person rate of $851.96 for the first two and $441.96 for the 3rd and 4th

The deposit due is $500 with a due date of October 2nd on the double-occupancy (final April 8th) and a due date of August 3rd on the triple/quads.

Airport transfers are available at additional fee or you can arrange your own transport. The closest airport is going to be Houston Hobby (intercontinental airport is much farther away). Airfare is up to you to arrange. This is cruise only pricing.

Trip insurance is optional as well. Rates vary. I will let you know when I get a definite price.

We will be all seated together for formal dinners, however you may eat elsewhere if you choose. More specific information on what to wear, what to pack, etc will be later when time is closer.

The cruise line will also give us a meeting place where we can all get to know each other and have a sort of mini-in person support group meeting. There will also be a fitness program on board the ship that can be customized to your own level. Of course you don't have to do any of this, but it will be there if you do.

**Payment will be made through Gadgetlady (Elisa) and she is a licensed travel agent with availability to accept all forms of payments. I teamed up with her so that all of you can feel comfortable with an actual travel business accepting payments and money. She will unfortunately not be able to travel with us so I will be your liason for the cruise.

***Single travelers can be matched in a double room or a triple with other single travelers. You can also talk with your LBT friends and pair yourselves up!!

All cabins will also receive a special surprise for their cruise!!!

Please PM me after you vote if you plan on attending. We will need to get our deposits in and then we can make payments as needed.

Please PM me with the following information:

Names of Passengers (as it appears on you passport)

Ages

Contact phone

Address

Citizenship (US, Mexico, etc etc)

Emergency contact person and phone number

Crown and Anchor # (if you are a member)

What Category room? Do you need a roomie?

If you need help with air arrangements (pm the city leaving from)

If you want insurance (it is somewhere around $39 or so)

If you need transfers to and from ship (it is about $40 pp I think)

Copy and paste the above into a PM is fine.

DO NOT SEND ME CREDIT CARD INFO!!!! YOU WILL DO THAT TO THE AGENCY WHEN THEY CALL YOU!!!!

Let's CRUISE!!!

Anyone gonna brave a bikini or tankini? I am pondering the idea. Hmmmmmmmmm.... I mean, why not since I will be surrounded by supportive people who understand my journey? I mean, I think it looks good while laying down but standing up isn't so exciting. :mad: Anyone else pondering the thought?

Hey Girl!!!!!!!!!!...Not quite brave enough for either but will be in a suit...lol...I have been touring our ship online and OMGGGGGGGGGGGG...The cruise is going to be amazing!!!!!!!!!!!...Can't wait...Counting the days...Wanting to pack...Although I haven't even unpacked from our cruise we came home from on Monday...Hope everyone here is doing great with their journeys...Looking so forward to meeting you all....Hugs, Windy

Jenna you do the bikini thing and I might consider a bathing suit...now that is a big thing for me to do in such circumstances and so I reckon a bikini is a must for you!

To hell with it, I am gonna bikini shop. Or at least window shop. I mean, who the heck cares ya know? I know the people I will be around will be okay with it and who am I tryin' to impress. This cruise is a celebration!!!

Jenna, You rock that bikini, You deservit it. I am not quite brave enough yet but Im getting there. Are there any planed excursions?? I know there are quite a few we can sign up for. That would be a blast.

  • Author

Yeah, I think it would be neat to do an excursion together too. Have any suggestions Ms. Blu?

I think that gadgetlady will be calling people sometime soon for the rest of the payments on the cruise.

Oh I am sooooooooo excited!!! I can't wait!:clap2:

P.S. It won't be an itsy bitsy teenie weenie yellow polka dot bikini (I am not the brave) but YEP, I am going to sport the kini's!!!

Hi Melissa! It's due in early April but a few people have paid already. I'll be connecting with everyone in mid-March but if you want to pay before I call you, just let me know :-)

when is the cruise? where is it going? tell me more more more!!!

Hi everyone,

If you read back through the thread you'll get itinerary information. The terrific rates we got last year are unfortunately no longer available because the group closed in December, but when I checked into add-ons in January of this year an outside cabin was $1391.96 per person for double occupancy. If anyone new wants to join up, let me know!
