What a ripoff!

We just booked a cruise in June of 2025 . This cruise is practically sold out . 16 day cruise , starts in Hawaii stops at 5 ports ..then sales to Alaska and then down the pacific coast to Vancouver where we disembark.
Hope your friend can plan ahead and use her travel package. Some vacation packages are transferable to heirs .

Wow! I should've gone into 'sales' if I knew it was this easy! Smh
I'd probably be commuting from Pennecamp if I did!

Agree, the whole thing was a scam. Very high pressure at end. You could easily purchase the “free travel” for less after the multitude of bogus fees. Like a time share presentation on steroids.

Just sharing our thoughts on their offerings, as BE AWARE!!
Attended this show earlier this year, it did sound interesting, offering free trips.
(Did seems somewhat High Pressure to commit immediately at that show).
Upon checking the availability for the "Complimentary" Air Fare / Cruise offers,
found they are definitely NOT "Free"! They have numerous restrictions, along
with significant fees. We just trashed the whole thing.
That is our thoughts, but be your own judge.

I like to go because it's fun to flip the script on these travel scammers. I like to make Them think I'm gonna buy the biggest package they have and then little by little I have them chisel it down to the smallest package and then I walk away and buy nothing. But usually I've got a great buzz cause they've been giving me free booze the whole time. I just keep saying, "I don't understand how this is gonna save me money" over and over. Scam for a scammer bet.
