Yahoooie! I got our itinerary for London today! I'm taking my dd who is graduating from College in May--we're calling it our "girls around the world" tour. Just us, no guys this time!!! We are so excited! And I earned TPC so we get the extra day!
 
That sounds wonderful!
 
What is with the level 2 registration? I keep checking it and they keep changing the time it will be available and now it says avail at 1:15, but it is not available yet??? HO has a 58 min hold time, so didn't bother to wait, but does anyone have the scoop??

My understanding is that the Travel Agency is having some technical issues. BUT, I was about to register about 20 minutes ago so don't panic yet! Keep trying.
 
i just did my registration. Hope those of you who wanted the Majesty were able to get it. When I started it said it was full - ok for us as we wanted the Sovereign anyways, but WOW that surprised me!

Yeah Debi! Thrilled to hear you are taking the cruise. Hope you are going to National this year as well? Nancy may be going, so maybe you, Sandi, Nancy and I can share a room (Lordy, we'd talk all night!). I'm going to try to make the Tri-Cluster meeting in March...if I can catch a military hop out of BWI.

Anyway, congrats on the cruise!
 
I could finally just get on to register, but had to take Sovereign and wait listed for Majesty. I am pretty disappointed in how the registration was so messed up today and then not getting the cruise I wanted.
 
I was surprised too that the one ship was full already!!! Wow. Hopefully they'll open up more slots or figure something out for those who wanted that boat. I was happy because I wanted the Sovereign, but I panicked at first when I saw that....thinking it was the one I wanted.

I hope everyone gets on what ship they want!!!:D

I can't wait to see you in Mar! I'm not too hopeful about National because plane tickets are over $1100 and you know how hopping will be. :(

Are they using Travel Planners again? I thought they had moved away from them because of ALL the problems we have had... Sounds like if they did, these people are no better. lol
 
No they use Carlson for incentive trips.
