Okay, okay, I'll see what I can do!!! Now lets see who do I know that would love to meet a tall good looking guy? Hey, now wait a minute, I thought you lived in California where there are all those blondes and beach bunnies and other females like that!!!!!
To: Seeking the truth
Now I want you to remember this year there is a space between Dixie and Sass!
To: abner
I think I might still have one that was stuck on the bottom of my suitcase. Might be in my pocketbook, no, not there. It's somewhere! lol, Might need to do that one again!
To: MinuteGal

Terrified of airplanes actually since birth! I turned down an all expenses paid trip to Hawaii a few years ago because I just can't get on that darn plane!

Please refer to the Bahama Mama Q & A thread where your question is addressed. The link is above. Hope to see you aboard!

That question was asked on the Bahama Mama thread. I think she is researching the full extent of connections. Check in there later for a reply. There's a link on the thread that shows Internet Cafe type facilities on board.
To: Utah Girl
Great. Glad to hear it.

Are any organizers getting discounted or free rates for this cruise?
To: DoughtyOne
Are any organizers getting discounted or free rates for this cruise, or are you sharing the discount with all takers?
To: DoughtyOne
Well, count me in. I'll be putting any spare shekels aside for this one. The best part is that the airfare is already covered - I won a radio station contest last week. Free airfare to anywhere in CONUS (smirk, snicker).
Hope they've improved the accommodations from the last time I set foot aboard ship - will I have to stand port/starboard watches, run a chipping hammer, and turn to for this one?

I wasn't totally serious, but since you mention it, thanks for the info. :)
I guess I left out the j/k, LOL, /sarcasm tag... there are quite a few people here who will explode if they can't freep or otherwise get online for 7 whole nights...
I won't name any names :)

No.

Because most of the time people do not realize that in most cases, the organizers are rewarded very handsomely (their cruise is totally free) for volunteering to set up a group cruise like this.
Quite a nice reward for doing a small amount of "volunteer" legwork.
Just wondered if this reward was being shared by all FReep cruisers (in the form of a further reduced price) or if the
volunteer organizers are being compensated (by the cruiseline or travel agent) with the customary free or deeply discounted cruise.
To: Notwithstanding
I wish!
The answer is No, just like the cruise the FreeRepublic Network held this year.
We all pay our own way.

As somebody else already noted in this thread, the organizers are apparently not receiving free accommodations. Kinda throws a big ol' monkey wrench into your theory, eh?
Just wondered if this reward was being shared by all FReep cruisers
Since there is apparently no "reward" involved, then I guess your questions (posted so repeatedly and earnestly) are moot.
Hope to see you on the cruise!
