Cruise #666?

[becka]

I just remembered something I wanted to ask. I noticed on our Navigators for the 4 night 02/05 Wonder that they said Wonder Cruise #667. I assume this meant the 667th cruise for the ship. That however naturally led to wondering if they really called the 3 night cruise prior to us the #666 cruise or did they just skip that number and really we were cruise #666.

Anyone know?

According to the Freedom of Integers Act of 1969, they can't do that (skip #666). 13th floors of hotels and similar pre-existing integer exclusions were grandfathered in.

But would that apply when the ships are of Bahamian Registry?

Freedom of Integers Act. That's positively enchanting. I don't think we have anything like that here.

I bet most people won't even know the reference to 666. I can't imagine them skipping over it like they do hotel floors #13.

We were on the previous cruise and yes we were #666.
Loved in and rebooked for Feb 3, 2007. Can't imagine what # that is.

We were on the Jan. 29th Wonder and we were cruise #665. There was a three day cruise after us (I believe) and if you cruised on 2/5 then you were really 667.

We were on cruise #666. I noticed it on some of the paperwork in the cabin and mentioned it to my husband and in-laws at dinner. Our assistant server overheard us talking briefly about it and commenting that we were suprised the number wasn't skipped. She very matter-of-factly said, "Why would it be skipped? The number exisits!".
