Hi Jd...
As you can see I am following what you do as close as I can. I am really curious to see how this turns out.
So - to recap, as I recall you went to a vacation share sales pitch to get this certificate (you did not win a contest).
So - does the certificate list the cruise lines it is good for? If so, please list. Also, any blackout dates or other limitations.
Either RCL or Carnival are good - but I say pick a newer ship regardless of which cruise line you choose.
Also - you have to pay another $75 fee? this will be the third one - although you were never told in advance about any of them, right?
This is very interesting.... good luck!
