I didn't want to come to late on thursday so need to know what time the cruise is so i see what my options are.

And would like know how many are staying Sunday night and leaving Monday? Or what time everyone is leaving on Sunday? Thanks,
Thanks for responding to that gal - I sent her a PM awhile ago, as I saw she posted on 4 different threads & I don't think she knows how to start a new thread .

I haven't checked fares today - but they usually go up over the weekend - it's the airlines way of getting more moeny when people have time to buy on the weekends. You might find this interesting: Airlines generally post their last-minute bargains on Tuesday evenings, while other Web sites are constantly updating deals so frequent clicking is a must. Accommodations, Inns and Lodging - AOL Travel

I wonder if a travel agent could get a bunch of us that haven't booked flights a deal even though we are not all flying from the same city? Since we are all going the same place maybe we could get a discount -- my parents have a good family friend who has ran an agency forever & she specializes in group travel. I'll contact her on Monday & see if she can offer guidance or help.

I was just thinking of starting a different thread to address the extended stay question - because other people don't seem to be coming back here to read this thread

I am planning to fly in either Wed. night (if a friend of mine will let me come with my dogs & stay with her that night, she travels a lot & has a cat, so I don't know if she will want me) Otherwise, I found a flight that would get me there at around 10:45 - so by the time I get luggage & get to the hotel it could easily be noon -- I'm just hoping that isn't too late to join in the festivitieis. Then the latest flight I found out on the same airline would let me leave on Sunday at like 7:30 pm. I might do that if people want to go hang out somewhere in DC or somewhere that day - been dealing with luggage will also be an issue. Because if you leave it at the hotel, then go into DC - then you'll have to include time to get back to the hotel, then to the airport. I would even leave on Monday night if people are going to hang around.
