I sympathize but can't be much help. I am going to FLL in a couple weeks and live in Winnipeg. Our airfare is almost double the cost of the actual cruise (sad, I know). We booked through the cruise line, and because of where we are coming from, they booked us on flights the day before the ship leaves, and cover our hotel/transfers as a part of the airfare. The airfare quoted by our TA was about equal to the best price I could find online (e.g. Westjet, travelocity, ect) and at least had the "extras" attached. i do know that it can be significanly cheaper to fly from the states, if you can manage it. Many people fly from Grand Forks (about a 2 hour drive south for us), and can save considerable $$$ that way.
