Dear Classmates,
Based on the results of the survey, the class decided on a cruise from Miami/Ft. Lauderdale in mid-late June with a stop in St. Croix. We tried our best to find a cruise that stopped in St. Croix. Unfortunately, there was only one cruise that stopped in St. Croix during that time and the port of calls were St. Thomas, St. Croix, San Juan, and Cococay in the Bahamas.
The Planning Committee met on Sunday, February 26 to review the Reunion45 Survey and consider options. As the Planning Committee considered this option, we collectively felt that the ports were probably very familiar to most of us and decided against that cruise. We are working with a local travel agent on St. Croix, Travel Tourism (contact information on the PDF), who also provided an alternative, and the Planning Committee supports this cruise for Reunion45. Please see the attached information on the cruise, the group prices, and a link to Carnival Horizon for more details.
This cruise leaves Miami on Saturday, June 22 and returns on Sunday, June 30, 2024. It travels to the Southern Caribbean and stops in Aruba, Bonaire, La Romana, and Amber Cove. There are 2 days at sea traveling to Aruba and 1 day at sea traveling to Miami from the Dominican Republic.
At this moment, we are asking classmates to RSVP for the cruise, so we know how many folks plan to attend and what type of rooms they will need. Shortly, we will need to send our deposits to the travel agent. As you will notice on the PDF, there is a $500 deposit (for those traveling in a single room) or $250 per person (for those sharing a double, triple, or quad room). Payments will be made directly between you and the travel agent. More information will follow once we have received your RSVP.
Please RSVP by Friday, March 10th. You can quickly RSVP on the following SurveyMonkey form: https://www.surveymonkey.com/r/WWBHZML
All the best,
The Planning Committee (Bruce, Joe, Laurie, Michelle, and Shelley)
