just an update if you are following this thread ..

John sent me a note saying....

Princess just released Exotics 2009 and 2010 but no Caribbean. I just spoke to groups at Princess and they said they have nothing yet, and it could be summer before they do. Don’t know what to tell you about Princess release dates.
John

So I would like to make the motion to start the vote beginning Sunday Morning 4/27 and continue the poll for 14 days.. meanwhile if Princess releases itineraries before the end of the vote we can then discuss and if need be we will do a quick 7 day vote off... all in agreement type YES! otherwise type NO!

thanks...

YES - I think if we wait too long our choices of cabins on the cruise we eventually settle on will be much more limited, especially as far as those much desired aft balconies go.

sailingrose · April 24, 2008

YES!!!

JohnG · April 24, 2008

Yes, but 14 days to vote may be too long for those wanting stern facing cabins. Constellation only has 12 of them, Category CC, and two are held for those needing wheelchair accessible features including roll-in showers.
