im going on a disney cruise in june and i have the royal suite and i REALLY want my bff to come
how much will it be to add her to my family….????

I want to visit Paris from Malmo (Sweden) or copenhagen (Denmark) in Dec’08 Christmas time. The dates are 24th Dec to 28th Dec. Please suggest me the options of how can i fly/take a bus/train/cruise …. The cheapest one and convinient….

my dad and i do not want to spend the holidays all by ourselves in a big house w/out my mom (9 months since she passed) and would like to spend a vacation somewhere warm w/ beaches and possibly a cruise. and if not a cruise maybe a nice place in the caribbean or mexico where we can relax but also have adventurous fun (we have enjoyed snorkeling back in the past and would probably like to do more fun things!). any suggestions will be great!! thank you!!

ive been on a cruise with my parents about 5 years ago… we went on carnival valor to the eastern Caribbean… my husband has never been on one and he doesnt mind what cruise line we go on, but he would prefer to go to the eastern or southern Caribbean… i would prefer that also..
so my question…
what cruise line(s) have you been on?
what is your favorite cruise line? and why?
what ports did you stop at?
what excursions did you do there?
any you would recommend?

thank you

I work at toys r us and my boss says that because december and january are our “peak” time, i have to quit if i want to go on vacation during those times. My vacation is a christmas cruise…

Is your work and/or home life become a monotonous, boring existence? Is there too much of the month left over after you’ve depleted your paycheck? If you answered yes to either of these questions, a Disney cruise line job may be the refreshing change you need. Imagine waking up each day at a new beach or resort atmosphere, always having plenty of cash to enjoy all the activities you want to do, like jet skiing, hiking, beach going, swimming with dolphins, and much more.

If a cruise line job sounds exciting to you, join the crowd, there are thousands like you. But you can literally “bypass” all of the competition if you know the secret tricks of the trade. Here are a few of the characteristics cruise lines are looking for while considering job applicants:

Are you reliable? – Reliability is a must for cruise line recruiters. They don’t want you jumping ship if your job on board gets a little old. It’s very tough for a ship to replace someone in another destination.

Are you presentable? – This is also extremely important, especially if you will be interfacing passengers on a regular basis. Cruise lines can be compared to 5 star hotels in a sense, so professionalism and good presentation is imperative

Are you enthusiastic? – Cruise ship jobs require enthusiasm, especially since the jobs on board are very different than those on land. It’s possible you could be working more varied hours than you would on a 9 – 5, so you can’t be cranky when this is the case.

Are you cheerful? – Cruise ship passengers paid a lot of money for their trip, and are vacationing, so they don’t want to deal with unhappy people. It’s very important that crew members maintain a cheerful demeanor when on the job.

These tips may seem like the typical “job requirements”, but these days, fewer and fewer people meet these basic requirements, so if you continually exude these traits, you’ll have the upper hand on the competition.

No Mexico cruises but we are up for any others

Our birthdays are 2 days apart, hers is december 10 and mine’s the 12th, and we want to go on a cruise for our sweet 16 this year like a couple days after christmas and get back in early january 2009. The thing is she lives in VA and I live in NC so we were thinking of flying(or maybe driving. . . could take a while) to Florida where a lot of cruises take off. But we don’t know which cruise line to take, probably Carnival or Royal Caribbean but neither of us has been on a cruise before. Is there a deal where you can book a flight and a cruise? And who should come with us since we’ll only be 16? My mom and her mom or both of our parents? We don’t want the cruise to be that long, like probably 6 nights or under and we also want it to be affordable but not have it feel like its a cheap vacation. Any advice from cruisers?
