Hi
I intend to shortly book a flight for a cruise in June '11, so I can get a good flight price. I don't intend to book the cruise until Jan sales or maybe later if the price doesn't suit.
I'm looking at the Liberty ots or the Epic on June 4 and 5 2011. There are few reviews available for each ship.
Any comments would be most welcome on the merits of each. Also I have often booked on the recommendations in Windjammers Latest Deals. So if there is a deal out there ..............let us know. Any advice as to my modus operandi is welcome.
Thanks..
The main problem with the 2 choices booking now is the need for time in BCN pre/post cruise adding to the cost since they are a day appart.
Thanks Emdia for the information and I'll look them up. The prospect of enjoying the features and scale of the Liberty looks enticing to us.
Thanks for the help
I use skyscanner.net to find the flights
I prefer BA from LHR remember they include your bags so can work out OK.
I'll be flying from the North West. EasyJet from Liverpool is looking good at £99 including bags on 4 - 11 June with decent flight times on the departure date. The Sunday flights on the 5 June for the Epic don't allow as good a window for potential delays on the departure flight. From what I can gather from internet information the Liberty provides a great experience in itself as a luxury hotel.
So I hope to wait my moment to book the cruise at a decent price. If the January sale cruise price looks good I'll book then rather than gamble on a late deal.
Thanks so much for the responses it is really helpful.
Can't comment on the liberty but were happy with the Independence.
Since the lead in prices are currenty close I would go with the one that fits you best.
(For us I think that would be the Epic but I would want lower prices for both)
We took an early(7:20) flight to BCN for a cruise Oct and it was OK I would not cut it fine, day early is best.
WJ, it would be appreciated if you could post a review of the Epic.
Ok I will have a think and write something
PM sent let me know if you don't get it, seems stuck in outbox.
