Default What Is Up With Pricing This Spring?

I'm talking about down times out of Florida. Have the cruise lines not
figgered out? MSC Orchestra, $2300 (for 2) for their Eastern Caribbean
165 sq ft miniroom with only one stop (Tortola) worth a damn.

The Jewel $3200 - $3500 for 8 days balcony (so what you get $300 in
lousy liquor credits).

Maybe they booked these cruises up in early 2008 but if they don't get
their prices inline soon, 2009 and on will be lean years.

China holds $652 billion in Treasury debt; owns $3 of every $10
of America's public debt. To finance the US $1.700 trillion bailout of
the banks, China will have to buy that debt.

Jewelon the 9th of zjanuary, MSC most anytime (i got a 3400 quote on an
aft cubbyhole). NCL has upped their credits to $750-$1,000 for their A
suites at least they are getting a partial clue.

Nothing in the southern carib worth a hoot.

When you wish upon a falling star, your dreams come true.
Unless it's really a meteorite hurtling to the Earth which
will destroy all life. Then you're pretty much hosed no
matter what you wish for. Unless it's death by meteor.
