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

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!!!

Hey Windy, PM or email me your email address!

Thanks,

Carol

Hi Carol,

I sent you a PM as well. I'm going to go ahead and sign you up for the insurance and charge your card. Please let me know ASAP if this is a problem.

Thanks!

Less than 10 weeks to go and to think that when we began this we had almost a year to wait...time flies eh?

OK, everyone; you're all set up for edocs, and I should be getting these to you at the end of May. I'm leaving on Thursday for 3.5 weeks and am handing over the reins to Jenna (Princess_n_thep). You're in good hands. Please, please make sure your passports are in order and start on those packing lists!

I have sent out the welcome letter via email to all of the cruisers. If you did not get one, please let me know. Anyone got the countdown handy? I am soooooooo excited!

I know this is a bit soon but, We as a family were thinking of going on a cruise next year 08. Can the whole family go or is only bandster and spouse allowed? Also would anyone have a idea of when next years trip will be? aprox month, destination etc.

It's not too soon! We set up the 2007 cruise in July of 2006. And the whole family is very welcome. It seems like a lot of the bandsters find it easiest to get to the Texas port of Galveston and it is obviously very central to the US. The other options are leaving from somewhere in Florida or doing an Alaska cruise out of Seattle or Vancouver. I'm open to suggestions. Jenna, want to hop in here? You're the queen of setting up polls :mad:
