Default John Heald Bloggers Cruise-5 Carnival Magic March 4, 2012
Yesterday John Heald announced the 2012 Bloggers cruise. This is the ship and date. I really like the selection of the Carnival Magic. It makes it easy for me if I decide to go!

I was looking at putting together a CruiseMates group cruise for the Blogger's 5 cruise. We're holding space, but I understand to book into the Blogger's group amenities is $125 more than the posted price, which is crazy.

I know the last couple of blogger's cruises they ended up dropping the blogger's code requirement, and allowing anyone booked to simply register to be part of the blogger's group... I assume to do lack of bookings at the blogger's rate.

We haven't decided yet if we want to take that chance with a CM group. I'll wait to hear back from Carnival before we decide if we'll proceed.

Well add me to the Hummmmmmm list.
Already booked- sort of you snooze you lose.
I guess reading John's blog I wanted to book early - and don't plan on having to pay extra like last time. I would have rebooked but it would have ended up costing me even more - since they changed their pricing structure.
Cheers April
Now what cruise should I book for my birthday ? Lol

(I was looking at putting together a CruiseMates group cruise for the Blogger's 5 cruise.) This could be cool, I have not spoke with Kuki since NOLA. I have asked a few questions online. He was a big help getting Carole to try private tours in the Baltic. It came out later all the problems he had with Carnival on the NOLA trip, not to mention the individual that teed off on him. I can't blame him for not wanting to sign up for a Bloggers trip again, who needs the hassle right. Mike

Well, it's a "her", but I think she was just so overwhelmed by it being so far in advance, she just signed it! Too late, can't take it back now!
