We should have a CA herf at sea!  |
I have tried in vain to get this to be a reality and you'd think it would be easy to get ahold of BOTL to do this. First of all you have to pick a cruiseline that welcomes this activity. Secondly is the itinerary and third is cost. Most cruiselines will discount the cost if you get more than 10 rooms and what usually happens is that the person who organizes it gets their room for free. What should happen is that you get as many people as you can and then break the discounted room into a general pool so that everyone shares the discount. I don't see many ships catering to having a whole ship being a "Cigar" ship because that will scare most cruisers away from going on this type of cruise. The cruiseline is there to fill the ship.
I'd love to see a shared cruise among BOTL to just get together for a Herf At Sea. There are some great 3 and 4 night cruises in Sept. thru Dec. that are pretty inexpensive and it takes you to Nassau, Private Island and Key West for less than $200 for 4 nights. Maybe we can start from there.
