I'm back from my cruise on the Norwegian Sky. I'll post a review soon.

Welcome to all the new people that will be joining us on the Magic!! Very Happy

I love the idea of giving to charity.

Welcome Back Jeanie! Enjoyed your NCL Sky Review. I agree, I think giving to charity is a wonderful thing! What would be the next step in making this a charity sailing?

Jeanie - Let's assume we are cruising from Rome. Will you be putting together a pre-cruise package?

Yes, we will be putting a pre-cruise package for this sailing.

I spoke with my local Carnival Rep. today and he said that it is too early to tell the itinerary. He did say we'll know more by late 2009 or early 2010.

I'll keep everyone posted.

GREAT! What are the chance of group space being available for this sailing? And, will $25 per person deposits be available?

By the way, you guys know you can get a sneak peak at Carnival Magic by checking out Carnival Dream, right? If not, here's the link:

Josh, the $25 per person deposit should be available when I reserve group space. However, the $25 deposit is only for double occupancy. If you want a triple, quad, or suite, or would like an assigned cabin right away, you would have to pay the full deposit.

I'm going crazy trying to get any bit of information about Magic but am not having much luck. I have a theory... Since the inaugural will be in June and the ship is in Italy, I think it's a pretty safe bet this is going to be a European itinerary. Assuming I'm right, I'd like to suggest the following hotel for a pre-cruise stay for those who can afford it: http://www.starwoodhotels.com/westin/property/overview/index.html?propertyID=70&EM=VTY_WI_excelsiorrome_70_overview

The frustrating part about Europe is the airfare - it's almost as much as the cruise, however, with this much time to save for it, it will be a very worthwhile trip.

That's for sure! What's Carnival's policy for groups? Do they still offer a lower price for group bookings or are they across the board pricing like Royal Caribbean now does?

I was just checking out Carnival Dream... Looks like a beautiful ship, I'm sure Magic will be equally as nice

Carnival's Group pricing is usually less than regular pricing. Usually it's around $50-$100 cheaper.

I haven't signed in for a long time. I'm interested in this group!! Hopefully it will be early June so it won't be unbearably hot!
