Yes, it is, Nikki. And theoretically, I could do it.
It's a Sunday-Sunday sailing so I'd take my 3 personal days and 2 days without pay.
Nothing in my contract would prohibit it.
But ethically, could I do it?
This is a perfect example of why Podcast Cruises are scheduled when they are.
We would love for our Educators to join us, but if we choose dates that would allow that to happen, prices would be incredibly high and very few would be able to afford the cost.
I'm sorry I dont have a solution to this....but you made the point crystal clear.
That's your call. I don't think I would take that long, if it were me.
Ahh, teaching...one of the few careers in which you feel "guilty" for taking contracted time off....
It's like Disney is punishing educators or those with children. Ridiculous.
Not really.
It's basic supply and demand.
Every vacation destination in the world has premium weeks which coincide with school schedules, special events, holidays etc.
A hotel in Daytona Beach is way more expensive during the Daytona 500.
Hotel rooms in Saratoga, NY skyrocket during the horse racing season.
It's the same with Disney (or any other cruise line). They sell rooms cheap when the demand is lower and raise prices when they know that demand will increase.
I was curious what Spring Break pricing might be so I looked at March sailings as well.
My wheels are turning..........
