First you have to define what you want.
Do you want a full refund, partial refund, face to face with Rosie?After that, a well written letter in legaleze usually does the trick. Be professional and specify what you want and if they don’t respond, what you will do if you don’t get what you want.
How long do you have before the cruise?
I want a partial refund or onboard credit.
Anyone speak legaleze?
What can I do? I don’t want to cancel. I have no real power…The problem is…. I know these people. I got married on this same cruise *to a different place* two years ago. It would be like calling Melody and bitching her out for scamming you. She and the whole small crew are like friends. I have met all of them and whatnot, I would feel like an jerk to call and get so upset.

It is a military based company *started there anyway* and now they offer insurence and credit cards. Its a very good company who really stands behind its customers.
gryphondreamer wrote:is there any small print saying they can make substitutions without repercussions?
Well I really don’t know, because even though we paid 7 months ago, the contracts and paperwork have yet to arrive. We keep getting told it will come soon.
And the thing is this is not a cheap “you won a trip” kind of cruise. This is the Rosie O’Donnell chartered cruise. And I really hate to be a jerk to her since she does great work for people….
And I do want to still go, I just want some compensation for the substitution. But when I asked. I got this responce…
“Hi Tara,
I did send out an email in addition to posting it on our website and our forums. I apologize if you did not receive the information directly.
It is unfortunate that we are not going to Bermuda. We felt that we could not guarantee an incident free visit. We did not want a repeat of Nassau from 2004.
We replaced one day in Bermuda with two additional ports.
In Orlando, there are options to visit the various theme parks. Please visit ncl.com and click on shore excursions to see the long list of options. Key West is a fantastic port and one of the most gay friendly destinations.
I know that this will be an incredible vacation for our guests. We have an amazing week planned. Thank you for understanding our need to keep this vacation safe and enjoyable for our guests. I look forward to seeing you “on the boat”.
Thanks,Gregg Kaminsky

(No, I don’t seriously think my stuff is crap, or that my person won’t like it. But I do know I’m not one of the “big” artists here. I’ve never even gotten a commission through the forums, just a couple off of ebay, though one of those was, I believe, for a forum member.) hey im not one of the best either,i had never even painted with acryics before this,to be honest though i have not seen any on the gallery pics that i thought was bad,even with everyone having different tastes and all,truthfully i know that pictures just dont do them justice,because i cant even get my pics to do mine justice 😛
I feel the same way…like god, those people are just scared to say something….Okay …time to put yourself in my shoes.
How would you feel about this…You spend 2,000 on a trip to Bermuda on a gay cruise. That you saved up for years to be able to go.
AFTER the final payment that everyone pays, they announce that there “might” be and has been some “talk” of a protest on the island. Sooo instead of going to Bermuda, they are now going to Port Canveral *spelling?* and Key West.
At first you think…OOO Disney! Until you find out that the you can’t get off the boat until 11 and its a bit more than an hour to the park, then you have to be back on the boat at 5 so you must leave the park before 4…giving you about 4 hours or less in the park, that cost 150 bucks a person to go to.
And Key West is very nice, but they do not have the same glassbottom boat tour that you really wanted to do in Bermuda, nor do they have dolphin encounter, nor are they very exotic since its right here in the USA and you can drive there?
Now imagine you get to the main cruise website and note that there is a 200 dollar PER person difference in price between Bermuda and the cheaper Florida cruise.
NOW You find out you will not get any kind of refund or on board credit. And for those who wanted to try and back out altogeather, they loose 75% of the ticket price.
But they keep saying over and over how they turned one days port into two and isn’t that wonderful?
Now…keep in mind that this is the Rosie O’Donnell cruise.
How would you feel?
