Carnival's cruise ship Triumph docked at St. Thomas.
 

Ahoy, Freepers!  Why not make your next year's vacation a FREEPER CRUISE? Can't think of a better idea!
United we stand for conservative activism AND some good old-fashioned fun, too!

This cruise thread will be running right up until embarkation day.  It'll be packed with lots of information.
Post your enthusiastic comments here.  Links are provided below for stateroom/fares information, registration form and
the Bahama Mama Q&A thread devoted solely to answers for all your cruise questions and to provide you with smooth sailing.

We strongly urge you to register ASAP.  We need a certain number of registrations by a mid-January cutoff date
to ensure our reserved block of cabins with Carnival.  From many communications we've received since last year's terrific cruise,
we're certain the interest is out there.  We don't want to have to deep-six this event if we don't get enough registrations in a timely manner.
PLEASE NOTE to hold off on making your air tickets reservations until we give you the go-ahead.
We have more than ample lead-time for this cruise and you'll be able to get good air-fare bargains in plenty of time!
Since some air-transportation tickets are non-refundable, we don't want anyone to be left holding the ditty-bag.

As an incentive for early registration, the first 20 Freepers to get their reservations into the travel agency
will win their choice of five (5) sheets of Ocents.com stamp sheets (go to that website for Seeking the Truth's array of terrific stamps!)
They will also receive a usflagballoon.com pin courtesy of Abner (check out Abner's usflagballoon website
to view the colorful pin and some excellent pictures of the US Flag Balloon!)  Registrations will be dated and time-stamped by the agency.
Winners will be notified and they'll receive their gift stamps and pins via mail.

We've got a great contest planned for later.  A lucky winner will receive a FREE cabin for two!
Last year, the contest was won by our Freeper pal, Taxman.  This time it may be you!

Bookmark this thread.  We'll keep you posted as plans evolve.  Register now for this fun-filled getaway in the sun!
Informal FRN meetings will be held on board which will be full of information and idea-sharing for effective conservative activism.

Rock the boat with your fellow Freepers!  Climb aboard today!
 

This page is for general comments about the cruise.
If you have questions, do not post them here.
Use the Bahama Mama link and ask them there.
Thank you!

How wonderful if your daughter will come. She'll feel right at home and it'll be a wonderful and warm get-together for you all. Tell your young lady we're all looking forward to welcoming her and congratulating her on her graduation from law school. That's a great achievement!

you get a free berth for X number of signups. The Network uses them for contests, speakers, VIP guests, fundraising, etc

Since you decided to comment on this, which speakers and VIP guests got a free room on your last cruise? David Horowitz didn't go so he didn't need a room.

How were free rooms used for fundraising?

The comped rooms are credited against your account, if they aren't used they become a fundraiser. On the last cruise, Horowitz and the contest winner were the only comped rooms, everyone else paid.

Hey nav, why not start pushing from behind instead of the front? You may think you're trolling looks incisive, but from here it looks like sour grapes.

NOTICE!

Bahama Mama has posted important info on her Q & A thread (link near the beginning of this thread) concerning the ID documents you need to bring with you on the cruise.

It's vital that everyone who has or intends to register read this information. You can find it at post # 97. Thanks,

Leni

Ahoy, CCC! Hope to see you again on this cruise. Last time, you posted some dandy pix taken aboard ship. Care to post a link so that everyone can see our freepers enjoying that not-to-be-forgotten event?
