How Late Can You Book?

[becka]

I think the chances are probably pretty low due to work situations and the guilt I would feel but is it too late to book the 3 day cruise that leaves on 9/1 over the Labor Day weekend? My 30th birthday is on 9/3 and just as a joke I was going to tell my DH that is what I wanted for my birthday but before I could mention it to him he mentioned it to me!

We don't have passports or anything that we would need for a cruise. Is it even realistic to get everything together in such a short time?

I don't think it's too late.... Did you check availability? I am pretty sure you can still sail with ID and birth certs. I say go for it! We booked our cruise in November for January.... that's about the same time....

I say go for it!! At least check the availability and cost, then make your decisions. You don't HAVE to have a passport, you can still use just your ID and birth certificate.

No - It's not too late! We usually book 4-6 weeks in advance. This is the 1st time we've ever booked 4 months out & I'm going crazy!

The latest I ever booked was 3 days before the cruise. That was before 9/11....but booked on Thurs for a Sat departure.

When I looked the other day you could still get reservations for 9/1. We are on this cruise and looking forward to it. I checked several sites just to compare the picing to what we paid and they all had rooms available for this cruise.

If you book let me know. Right now I only know of (including me and DH) 3 families that are going. Oh...and this cruise is my birthday present as well. My Birthday is 9/1 and another cruise has her birthday the same as yours. Hope you book.
