I am constantly reading in these boards that people are going on 2+ cruises per year, or at least 2 every 18 months. I am wondering where people find such bargains that allows them to cruise so often.
We have a elementary school aged child. Therefore, we usually have to schedule vacations for the times that he is out of school. The prices are very high for those times. I have gotten a price on Carnival Conquest for Thanksgiving week 2003 that I feel is good, yet I am concerned that it might not be "the bargain" I think it is. I have also gotten a quote on RCI Grandeur out of New Orleans for the same time. I am leaning towards Conquest, mainly because of the kids stuff - such as the pool slide, 24 hr. pizza, free soft serve ice cream -- but the price is much higher than RCI just to have these things.
There are 4 people in our party, and the quotes are approx. $1900 for a balcony room (2 people) and approx. $1550 for oceanview (2 people) on Conquest. RCI balcony approx. $1500, approx. $1250 oceanview. No airfare is needed, as we are in the N.O. area. Are these good prices, or would you seasoned bargain seekers suggest I search for lower prices?
Thanks for any and all assistance.
