    As far in advance as possible. The earliest we booked was June 05 for Mar 07.

    We are trying to decide what to do for 2009 as in June it will be our 25th Aniversary. Just seen a cruise on RCI for Apr 2009 Sydney to Hawaii for 16 days but its on the Rapsody which we think is too small for us now. Also no flights at this time which puts us off as well as in England once you book if you cancel you lose the deposit.

    We save two years in advance by putting money aside each month for the following 2 years. At the eand of the month we open up the fund for Holiday 2010.

    At this time we are only booked upto Nov this year which was booked last April.

    I think if I had more than my 5 weeks holiday each year and no problem with money we would work out a list to do over the next 4 to 5 years.
    At this time I cannot think of anything profound to say

    We like to book as far in advance as possible.Preferrable 2 - 3 yrs , most cruiselines don't have schedules that far in advance. I would like to book Apr/May 2010 now if possible

    I am WAY LESS than a year. This cruise was booked 6 months (LONG MONTHS) from cruise day. I generally book about 3 months out. Once I booked a week away...I had an itch to go on a cruise and had some friends who also wanted to go...so we did!
    Loves to cruise!!!

    With my work I can schedule my time off when I want. I work from a 1 person maintenace office. I just let my manager know six months in advance what my scheduled time off.

    The earliest we have ever booked a cruise is 18 months out. We got the stateroom we wanted at a great price. As soon as the itineraries are posted I'm always looking for a great itinerary. We haven't yet left for our cruise this month and are very close to deciding on our 2009 cruise.
