TRAVEL AGENCY:
I am working with Omega World Travel Leisure Office. Our agent for the Kleverkathy 2010 Couple’s Cruise is Leslee Gearhart. Leslee is very happy to be working with us and comes to us out of the corporate office in Fairfax, VA.

CABIN COSTS:
I don’t like being blindsided so I asked Leslee to tell me all possible costs. Because we are taking a large group, tax and gratuities of $70.00 is required up front. That $70.00 might sound like a lot to those of you who have not cruised before but it is $9.95 a day for your waiter and housekeeper. You will have the same waiter and housekeeper for the entire week. $70.00 is worth the special love and attention you will receive from each of these people. You’ll see! The only other thing that we might have to pay, once we are locked in, is some kind of extra tax if gas continues to rise quickly and substantially. Don’t worry! I got a call into God for that, cruise or no cruise. I just need it to regulate!

So here are the costs. Keep in mind; these are all per person costs based on two occupants per cabin, without the tips and gratuity added in:
Inside cabin – $704.83
Oceanview – $804.83
Balcony – $944.83
Suite – $1443.40
What’s your pleasure? Which cabin would you like? You gotta let me know ASAP as we are already rolling!

PAYMENT INFO:
There are three ways you can pay:

* Call Leslee with your payment
* Mail Leslee your payment
* Email Leslee letting her know you want to make a payment and how much

Emailing Leslee saying I want to make of payment of $50.00 (just an example) would probably be the easiest. In order to do that, she will need to have an authorization from you for the FIRST PAYMENT ONLY. As long as you continue to use that particular credit card, that you have given her authorization to use, she never has to ask or hassle you for that info again. In order to get her to do that, you will need to fax the following authorization (using YOUR information):

I Kathy A. Curry do authorize Leslee at Omega World Travel to charge my Visa card, #xxxx xxxx xxxx xxxx, expiration date 01/13, in the amount of $50.00, toward the kleverkathy couple’s cruise, October 24 -31, 2010.

_____________________________________ _________________
Your signature Date

(This is just an example. You need to put in your info.)

You will also need to attach a COPY OF FRONT AND BACK OF BOTH: the credit card you will be using and your driver’s license. BOTH NEED TO BE SIGNED.

Here is the payment schedule and other pertinent info:

* NOW – initial down payment of $50.00 per cabin, is due. That equates to $25.00 per person. You can pay more but $50.00 is required. If your cabin of choice is a suite, you will need a $500.00 deposit instead of $50.00. This holds your actual room. At the time of your deposit, Leslee will locate a room for you and hold the actual room you will occupy during the cruise. For all others, since there are so many of those types of rooms, the actual room will not be selected until closer to time of the cruise.

* December 15, 2009 – the names of all companions are requested, however, as long as payments are being made, companion names can be switched later.

* December 29, 2009 –$450.00 per cabin is due. That equates to $225.00 per person.

* August 1, 2010 – Final payment is due! So after your December 29, 2009 payment, you don’t actually have to pay another dime for 8 months at which time, your final payment is due. I don’t recommend waiting until the final due date, but it is up to you. I foresee February – April cruise payoffs with your income tax returns!

* Flight breaks – We will possibly be able to get deals on our flights! (Remember, flights are not included) However, that process cannot begin until a year out which means October 2009. I will stay on top of that and I will get with Leslee on flight breaks as soon as she is able to do it. Good to hear huh?

CANCELLATIONS:
If for some reason you would have to cancel your trip, you can cancel up to 60 days in advance and get your full refund. After that you loose 20%.

VERY IMPORTANT:
It is BEST to pay by credit card. If you do have to cancel and are awaiting a refund, receiving you refund after paying by cash will take up to 16 weeks, however, if you pay by credit card, you will receive your refund within 3 – 5 days, big difference. Hear me on this one! I don’t want anyone’s feelings hurt if you need to cancel and have to wait four months for your refund. You will blame me! And I won’t blame you for wanting to blame someone, but I am telling you now. If you haven’t heard anything else, please read and re-read this.

But understand; paying in cash is acceptable. Just be aware of the above stipulations before you decide your payment method.

At the time of your first payment, Leslee will need to know your full address and birthday.

COMPANIONS:
For those who haven’t settled on a particular companion for the trip, that’s fine. But I will ask, as soon as you know who will be the other half of your couple, please let me know, the sooner the better. FYI: You can change companions until August 15, 2010 and then we will need to solidify that person.

PASSPORTS:
If you don’t have a passport, run, don’t walk to your local post office and ask them to help you get started with the process. Passports are a must have when cruising!

Q & A:
Ok, I think I have covered the initial things necessary to get started. I’m sure many of you will have questions and concerns I haven’t thought of. If so, please do not hesitate to shoot me an email letting me know. More than likely it is something all of us will want to know too.

I am always available to you!
