So scary to think of being up in a plane with your life in Joe’s hands

You need to get over that fear. He’s your flight out of the country when we need to protect you. You’re the leader of the Dream Team. We can’t lose you.

sort of a theadjack, but I don't know that I'll ever plan to go on another cruise again. I might go if it's a group thing or something other circumstance like that, but I feel like there are so many other things I'd like to do than go on a cruise.
I've had fun on the cruises I've been on (all in the Caribbean), I don't know what my hangup specifically is.
Just looked up flights to Miami out of Columbus, OH for that timeframe. The cheapest I found was $440. I didn't look, but sometimes flying into Ft. Lauderdale is cheaper. I used to have to go there for work semi-regularly and would fly into there from time to time. The drive to Miami from there isn't horrible.
Hot damn. Bitcoin must really be the currency of the future!
The big plus for me is that you can cover a lot of territory (e.g multiple countries) without having to re-pack and unpack multiple times, and entry into the countries from the port is almost always hassle-free.
The negative is that we've been in ports where we wished we could have stayed longer, but you're at the mercy of ship time and the cruise itinerary.
Look, I can agree that top isn't flattering.
But, I am also a man with very few standards. She is well above those standards. Bring it.
If your kids are the right age I'd say go for it. Those are the only cruises I've been on and I enjoyed them. They have a few different age-appropriate kids areas where my kids loved to hang out. It's pretty good security too. You have to check them out with your wristband and pictures of your kid and the people authorized to pick them up pops up. They're hardcore about checking that too.
It was a nice mix of doing things with my kids and hanging in the adults only pool and bars. I'd say 8-13 is the sweet spot for kids' age.
I totally agree with this. On the first cruise we did, we didn't do any excursions and just hang out within walking distance to the port in Nassau. Big rookie mistake with young kids. Lots of sketchy people trying to sell you things with random bars full of 20ish somethings.
The second time we did an excursion at one of the ports that involved snorkeling and exploring the area - I could have hung out on that excursion for a couple days.
Airfares, at least, are looking good for domestic travel this year.
Travel in the U.S. Will Be More Affordable Next Year, According to Kayak

I"ve been on a few flights recently, including back from SFO, that were fairly empty. First time I've experienced that since .... 2013 maybe?
okay i might do one then this summer before my daughter gets away from me as she's 13 and turning 14 in sept. minion will be 3 don't bring him?
Don't kid yourself... none of the other bargain carriers twenty mentioned are any better. Plus, you won't have to witness a fight on the plane.
Delta or bust for me. If I have to stick with commercial, I'm at least going to fly the best of the worst!
And you wonder why your neighbors aren't present! I couldn't even be acquaintances with someone flying Spirit or Allegiant.
Mine drives 50% of the time b/c she gets carsick easily. But you can be rest assured I'd never be allowed to sleep during that.
I think these budget airlines have the most unruly passenger incidents. There's always the risk of a rumble. So many seem to be in a constant state of anger these days.

That's absurd. How do you think that is good for the economy in the long-term? An economy built on 71+% consumer spending isn't going to survive with people at Target and Walmart making $20+ per hour, particularly with the service level they provide.
I've been on a few. Think it's important to find a line that is the right fit. Celebrity is pretty nice. Wouldn't go on Carnival for free.
Carribean is ok, but most of the ports are lame tourist traps. Would like to do an Alaska one, or the Norwegian fjords look pretty amazing.
I like sitting and watching the ocean go by and have cocktails. Not into raging parties and buffets are gross. So has to be one that has good dining options. Not something I'd want to do frequently but I've usually had fun when I've gone
There are deals in Italy, even decent hotels in Rome. You have to invest some time in the search, and do it many months out.
^^^^^^^^
Hey, everybody, mark this post and compare it to whatever they say is Biden's fault if the economy fluctuates south again, LOL.
Really? Maybe they have always been expensive. I just looked and the normal boats(not the new fangled SS Crab Leg) seems pretty affordable.
Rome is gross though. I want Amalfi coast, Santorini, etc. Our hotels that we honeymooned at in Greece are literally 2-3x what I paid ten years ago (I looked at the receipts).
I guess I wasn't looking at Florida. I go to Colorado several times a year for work. Airfare to Denver is really cheap right now. Peak times are no worse than pre pandemic.
4 night Disney cruise Fort Lauderdale Bahamas is $3500 for two. Doesn’t seem too bad
