We're booked and we're so excited!!!!!

Who's going with us? We were able to snag our favorite cabin, 8181.

Well I said I wouldn't be booking this cruise, but I just left a message with my TA to go ahead and book a cabin for me. It's more than I wanted to spend, but the itinerary and the time of year are very good for me. I'm giving up the balcony this time, just a regular ocean view, but I'm sure I'll be fine. On my last TA I was in an inside cabin and had no problems with that. I'm in a category 4, either on Vista or Panarama decks.

Count Bill and me in on this one! I love 14 day cruises...and being on a TA crossing is icing on the cake...

Just heard from Jennifer and we have our favorite cabin for this cruise! The fare has almost doubled from this year's TA, OUCH! But we can always cancel later if decide it is too high. For now count us on board!

Susan and Garry, it sounds as if we'll soon be singing..."Hail, hail, the gangs all here"!

Susan, love your new signature quote!

I wonder if we'll have as much activity as the 2007 TA? I hope so.

Our cabin didn't double, but it did go from $1,450 p/p to $2,315, but I can (reluctantly) live with that. It's still under $175/day which is my maximum "comfort zone". When the fare gets higher than that, I think pretty hard about whether or not I really want it that bad.

In a month or so, I'll start up a web site so if you have any good links for the ports (and Barcelona) please get them together and send them to me.

I'm glad to see some of my favorite people are on this cruise! This is going to be a great cruise, I just love all the sea days!

Bob, I have to agree with you. The fare went up significantly. We paid $1350/pp CC cabin on the '07 TA, and we'll pay $2099./pp CC cabin for the '08 TA.

I still think we got quite the deal on our '07 TA. Celebrity really missed the boat (bad, bad pun) on that one...in our favor!!
