Hi Pam,

Yours is not an inappropriate question and I'm more than happy to reply.

We did have a few reductions on our cruise; however, it came out to approx. $4,000 PP for 7 days. Considering the great fares we paid for our prior cruises, this was pricey (in our opinion, of course). Many other Baltic cruises had additional incentives added along the way, but our particular cruise didn't. Our sailing was sold out, according to RSSC, as I did inquire. Under such circumstances, we would have normally changed to another sailing. We didn't because Ngaire and Ken were escorting our group and we really wanted to sail with them. Otherwise, we would have changed, as we found the fare far more reasonable on other dates.

While the fare was higher than we've paid in the past, the cruise was outstanding from start to finish! Sailing with Ngaire, Ken, and our terrific group was great and we had a truly lovely time.

You, too, will enjoy this cruise so much. Is BLISS the cruise Ngaire and Ken are escorting in June? I believe she mentioned there were approx. 70 people in this group, if I'm not mistaken.
