Booking 6 Cabins, What TA to use?

[moet7]

Hi,

As soon as the 2007 prices come out I will be booking 6 cabins for a family vacation. Celebrating Mom and Dad's 50th Anniversary!!!

Can anyone give me the name of a good TA to use that might have also booked this many cabins at one time?

Also if you have ever booked a big family like this, was it better to all be on the same floor?

Thanks!

I use All Seasons Travel.
www.allseasonstravel.com

They have great rates and book lots of cabins! Great customer service. I've had Sandy and John-both excellent!

Good luck! and

CONGRATULATIONS! On becoming a Mommy! We're the best!

I like cruisequick and their custom quote option. Everything is done via email, so EVERYHING is in writing. Thus, no misunderstandings.

I booked 5 rooms w/ DCL directly and had no problems

 

[dzneprincess]

alwayslisa, just curiosity here, but now that you have your bottom line from DCL on the price of those 5 rooms, have you checked with a TA to see how much could be saved? I imagine with a total of 5 rooms it would be a nice sum.

ok maybe I should try that then - would I lose on the night before hotel ? transport to and from PC and CC discount?

 

[dzneprincess]

I am not sure exactly what you have set up with DCL, but when I book..I always go thru DCL first and then I transfer to Dana at www.micdan.com and she has always done right by me. I think that Stuart from these boards has a very large booking with several rooms like you and he has glowing reviews as well.

Lisa, with so many people in the group it may be better for you to call Dana at the number on her site. That way she can get all the information needed, AND you can get a feel for what a great TA she is! I hope she can help you out! When are you sailing?

I have two cruises booked with DU (Board sponser) and have nothing but good things to say. They beat DCL with their rebate and a month or so after booking they informed me that there would be an addition $50 per stateroom discount. I did nothing... they emailed me and told me they saved me money. Love it.

We booked 7 rooms through All Seasons travel last year. They were great and gave us the best price. I did shop around since I wanted the best rate for everyone. They beat many other quotes by several hundred dollars. I think it all depends on which category your booking. We booked category 9's through them for the best rate.

Good luck!

Dana has already contacted me - I will get all the paperwork together this week and give her a call - Thank you for your help!
