I just sent my BDM a copy of one of their promtions, I'm sure it's not within their discount guidelines. It offered free parking while on the cruise, free specialty dining, free grats and onboard credits.WTH? The BDM has not responded yet.

I have a MacBook Pro. I love it for it's speed. There are a few supplier sites I have found that works better under Firefox instead of Safari. I've had my MAC over a year now.

Gift baskets
I have a small group going to Aruba, and would like to send gift baskets (with snacks) to be delivered to their rooms. Is there a company that delivers out of the US, or would you suggest trying to find someone local in Aruba?

Wow, I didn't even know Sun Country was still in business. I flew them back in 1993 and vowed to NEVER fly them again. I was a flight attendant for United then and got on Sun Country to Las Vegas and I had zero leg room. ZERO.
