I experianced one of those type of characters earlier this evening.. they told me — Cruising is WAY to Expensive!  (not to mention super cheap with these economic times).

Really?  Compared to what I asked?  No reponse.  My thoughts exactly.

Let’s do some math, shall we?

The following is based on a family of four:

 

3 night Orlando, Fla. Vacation:

Hotel (resort): 600.00
Theme Park Tickets (3 day): 932.00
Food (3 days) 480.00
___________________________________
Total: $2,012.00

 

3 night Cruise Vacation to Bahamas on Royal Caribbean:

Cruise Fare (w/taxes) 896.63
Hotel: included
Food : included
___________________________________
Total: $896.63

As you can see, taking a cruise saves you over $1,100.00.   Hmm maybe it isnt such a small world after all?

Keep in mind this comparison was based on average resort prices, meals, and passes to theme parks. Prices may vary. Void where prohibited. Dealer retains rebate…. kidding!

Thoughts or comments?
