How's Sailing in January?

[Lisa loves Pooh]

My procrastination might pay off--I've been hesitant to book and just got an e-mail on Fla Residents Rates for January.

This would save us $500-$700 than going later in the year. My younger daughter will only be 2...so I'm wondering.

To save this much money, should I talk hubby into going earlier? How's cruising at this time of year?

Advice when my choices were May or October was to wait until October to sail when younger daughter will be nearly 3 (But sailing before her b-day) and might be able to join the clubs (provided she is potty trained of course).....

This is about $500 savings over going in October, about $700 for May (for a 4 night cruise).

Any thoughts?

Can you let us all know? I'm thinking of booking in Jan. also if they give out FL res. rates.

We have sailed in January and it was chilly in Port Canaveral and Key West but very warm in Cozumel and Grand Cayman.....Castaway Cay was breezy but folks were still going in the water...it was a bit too breezy for me.

At sea it was sunny and breezy but you could lay out and go in the pool.

We sailed January 4, 2003 on the Western.

Here is a link to our pics from that trip...

The rates were for 3 and 4 night cruises starting at $379 for the 3 and $429 for the 4.

The website is backed up when I tried earlier, but you can call your travel agent.

There is a code, but per DISBoard guidelines, I'm not sure I can post it.

Dates were for 1/6/05 to 2/10/05 for the 3 night and 1/9/05-2/6/05 for the 4 night.

I am traveling with a 4 year old and 2 year old and my ocean view quote through another travel agent for us and their dad was $1310.
