GBExcellent first time to Alaska Excellent first time to Alaska, great experience, new NCL JOY, services and fun crowd, I like NCL, started 30 years ago, but also use Princess, RCL, Holland and other lines. Your opportunities also lured us to Eastern Canada last fall. We have cruised dozens of times-Caribbean,all routes and Europe, again most routes. Mexico, Canal and Central America ditto. Opportunity cost to cruise Hawaiian Islands is interesting, even thought many visits for business/vacations,cruising great way to see islands.Price increases some cruise lines impact retirees. SkyAuction is great!

GBOnce upon a time Once upon a time, they regularly had excellent bargains. Now, per-night and other fees are added to the bid price such that you can usually do as well or better with traditional travel sites, with less hassle. Their main web page has also become a bit of a mystery. Click on "Air," and you get a screen that lists -- nothing. Click on "Cruise" and you get a list of 9 cruises all from the same company on similar itineraries. Click on "Closing Soon" and get a list full of puffery but which often doesn't mention the destination until the end, so you have to wade through lots of verbiage -- and many ads for sunglasses, necklaces, and assorted stuff. Bought a number of items from them earlier. Now, I wouldn't bother.

GBOur visit to Royalton Negril When we arrived at the main registration. desk, we were directed to another registration and told that we were "Diamond class." Once registered, we met our two butlers and escorted to our suite. We found out that Diamond Class entitles one to run of the resort, including Hideaway and Grand Lido beaches and spas. The staff members were all top-notch and friendly and personable and great to associate with. They undergo 6 months training/vetting before officially joining the Royalton staff. Food was great, including fresh swordfish, snapper, sea bass and tuna at one of the three buffet grills. At a party for Diamond Class, we won a drawing for "Culinary Experience" dinner for two. All-in-all, it was a great experience.

GBI've purchased several vacation condo… I've purchased several vacation condo weeks from SkyAuction over the years. For us, this is the best way to go. We're able to make breakfast in before heading out for the day, spend some time stretched out reading, enjoying the resort pools, and feeling like we're in a nice home. Just be sure you read all the details about surcharges, fees and availability before you buy. Every time we're chatting with people at the resort pool or bar, they can't believe how little we paid.

GBExcellent website! I was very skeptical about using this site. However, to my delight it is excellent. Whatever is promised, you will receive. Having used this site for several Cruises I am anticipating taking many more trips. I can hardly wait for more offers!
