Hey Gabby... You should change your booking to February 14-18. That is the annual sailing of the Polyesterfest. It is a riot. Lots of great people and great concerts. You will get to see and hear Antsy McClain and the Trailer Park Troubadours as well as other great acts. I wish Big Tex was still on that ship but you will enjoy Trevor Block as your CD. (if he's still there) Your comedienne will likely be Kim Harrison. Just make sure you hit the buffet before she does. (and don't ask her about motorboats )

Gabby: The weather can be tricky that time of year. Hubby grew up not far from New Orleans and you never know if it will be 90 degrees or 15!!

I can't remember ever being in Cozumel in February. We have been in Dec. Jan and March and it has been warm except for once when a 'Norte" blew through.

I would check weather.com about 10 days before you sail to see what to expect in New Orleans and in Cozumel.

Happy Cruising!!

We cruised out of Galveston in March and the Gulf was Cold! It got warm when we got to Mexico. But we didn't bring enough warm clothes for outside on ship. Be sure and bring jeans and a sweatshirt. You'll have a great time.

After Jan we have 4 to go. One thing we have been looking at the 25% OBC its time for our first Military/GTY Cat 12. That will be the cruise to do it on. We always get a 8A Balc Mil/Gty. Could be on the CCL Dream.

Just a question, has anyone heard how they handle it when you reach your 25th cruise. Is the discount applied automatically to your 25th cruise OR do you get the option to use it on any cruise after that?

Being past the 25th cruise, you just got a letter and you can use it on any cruise you select. However, our 16 year old son will be reaching his 25th cruise this year. I am wondering it he HAS to use it on his 25th cruise or if he also gets to select which cruise after that to use it on>?????
