when to book?

[ohMom]

search function is down -- so i'm forced to ask it outright!

we are considering a 4 day next year - either over Memorial Day or the first of June after school is out. Which is better and why? and I know that the earlier booked = better rates, but when do the prices go up? is there a pattern to that?

TIA!!!

The "pattern" is that the prices go up as the ship fills up. It is a computer generated thing--prices can change hourly on very popular cruises (like the repo cruises)....on others, they stay at the same level for months. When the ship hits a certain number of guests, the computer automatically bumps prices to the next tier.
