Ahoy,
? We already have 11 people confirmed for the Aruba cruise, and lots who have expressed interest in going; the 20% group discount is a given. So, if you want to join us on the Oct. 28-Nov 3 cruise on the Legacy be sure and let me know while we still have group space. ? For those of you who have paid your deposit, they are already turned in to Windjammer, and your cabins are secure. Those of you who have told me that you won't be able to join us, I hope you don't mind that I included you in this post. If you have any friends who might want to join us, you'll have the information. ? CANCELLATION POLICY You can get a full refund of all moneys paid up until July 1.? From July 1--Aug 1, if you cancel you pay a $45 penalty, and are given cruise credit for the remaining to be used in the next two years. After Aug. 1, there is no refund. You can sell your space to someone else, though. Total payment is due August 1. ? TO CONFIRM SPACE 1. E-Mail me at: gail@teleport.com? or 2. Phone me at: (541)765-4577 with your credit card number? or 3. Send a check to PO Box 1723, Newport, Oregon, 97365. The deposit for the cruise is $200. If you want Fare Share it is an additional $100. Let me know the following: 1. What type of cabin do you want? ??? Commodore Doubles have full sized beds, and are $900.? ????Standards have?bunks, and are $800. 2. Do you want Fare Share? ??? From which airport and which day do you want to arrive in Aruba and depart ??? ??? from Aruba? ??? Here are some samples of Fare Share Rates round trip to Aruba: ??? ??? PDX? $899 ??? ??? GSO $649 ??????? LEX? $679 ??? ??? SDF ?$679 ??? ??? PHL? $679 ??? ??? CVG? $727 ??? ??? SYR? $679 ??? If you arrive on Sunday and leave on Saturday, or if Windjammer books two ??? ??? nights in a hotel for you, there is no deviation fee. But if you only stay one night, ??? or deviate otherwise, there is a $35 deviation fee. 3. Do you want trip insurance? It is $85.? ??? We'll be way?south of the hurricane belt, but you have to fly over it to get to ??? ??? ??? Aruba.? I highly recommend trip insurance. 4. Do you want me to make a hotel reservation for you with the group? ??? ??? ??? ??? ??? Windjammer's Hotel Dept. is still negotiating with one hotel in Aruba, and it ??? ??? sounds like we'll get a much better rate as a group than trying to book ??? ??? ??? ??? individually. So, in contrast to what I said earlier, if you want a hotel room, let ??? ??? me know which night to book for you. (Right now there is no need to send a ??? ??? deposit for the hotel.? If you choose to stay elsewhere once you find out where ??? they put us, that is fine.) ? POLY REPO CRUISE The Poly repo cruise is Nov. 4 through November 10, from St. Lucia to St. Maarten. She will be coming out of dry dock with a whole new top deck, and a reconfigured bar area. We only have 6 confirmed so far on the Poly, but quite a few are interested, and we still have plenty of time yet to find 9 more passengers. Deck cabins are $880, Standard Cabins are $720, and the BQ is $560.? Fare Share rates are the same as to Aruba, but they have an additional $35 fee because you fly into St. Lucia and out of St. Maarten. ? The bad news for those who want to do both weeks, is that there are no direct flights from Aruba to St. Lucia, and you have to go through San Juan to get there. The fare for that leg is close to $400.? ? The good news for those who want to do both weeks and have Aadvantage Frequent Flyer miles, is that you can fly from your home to Aruba, then up to St. Lucia, and then home from St. Maarten, all for 30.000 miles, and $255. ? Hope to see a whole bunch of you next Fall! Gail
