I am interested in the August 24, 2009 sailing on the Ruby Princess in an interior or obstructed view cabin. Could you please quote fare.
Thank you
Diana
My family and me are interested in making a trip around Greece, Istambul, Cairo and Jerusalem next year, maybe at the end of Summer, beginning of Fall. What can you advise us?
Thanks,
Gonzalo
Gonzalo, That sounds like a great cruise itinerary. We have several cruise lines to choose from and will have a cruise specialist contact you today.
We are interested in a Spring 2010 Vacation to Europe possibly London, Rome, Florence, Athens, Santorini, Venice. WE are not interested in Turkey.
We prefer a land vacation though would consider a cruise if we can cover areas we are interested in. Also, would like to consider using our American Express rewards points in addition to other funds.
Thank you for your information.
