547.0. "To early to make reservations????" by MKOTS1::FALDETTA () Thu Feb 01 1996 15:02

    Hi, I was wondering when I should start making plans, we would like to 
    go in the end of DEC.  Is it to early to make reservations? 
    
    
    Thanks,
    Lina

547.1Not looking forwad to the "end of DEC"ODIXIE::PFLANZSat Feb 03 1996 12:1910
    I hope you never get to go on your cruise, if you meant the "end of
    DEC", but since you meant December, it is not too early to plan now. 
    Many lines offer a guaranteed lowest price, with rebates if the price
    goes lower.  Early booking is getting to be the trend, with the
    cheapest pricing and upgrades.  I made my most recent cruise
    reservations about 15 months in advance, and was recently treated to a
    magnifient upgrade.  I am told that many decisions are based on time of
    booking and past history.

    THE EARLIER YOU BOOK, THE BETTER OFF  YOU ARE.....SOMETIMES GREAT
    DISCOUNTS.  WE'VE BOOKED IN DECEMBER FOR A 15 DAY CRUISE THROUGH THE
    PANAMA CANAL THAT'S NOT COMING UP UNTIL SEPTEMBER AND GOT A 70%
    DISCOUNT ON THE 2ND FARE....SO BOOK EARLY!
