Because most of the time people do not realize that in most cases, the organizers are rewarded very handsomely (their cruise is totally free) for volunteering to set up a group cruise like this.

Quite a nice reward for doing a small amount of "volunteer" legwork.

Just wondered if this reward was being shared by all FReep cruisers (in the form of a further reduced price) or if the
volunteer organizers are being compensated (by the cruiseline or travel agent) with the customary free or deeply discounted cruise.

Ain't capitalism and free choice great?

As somebody else already noted in this thread, the organizers are apparently not receiving free accommodations. Kinda throws a big ol' monkey wrench into your theory, eh?

Since there is apparently no "reward" involved, then I guess your questions (posted so repeatedly and earnestly) are moot.

Hope to see you on the cruise!
