Announcement and feedback requested: Cake Decorating Cruise to the Bahamas

 

Hello Everyone,

I am a cake decorating enthusiast and travel professional and am requesting your feedback regarding a cake decorating event.  Carnival is hosting it this year, and the goal is to have it be an annual and/or semiannual event.  It is a Cake Decorating Cruise to the Bahamas.  After clicking on the link below, I would like your feedback on the following:

The length of the cruise (i.e. too long, too short, etc.)

The length of hands on time: Is minimum an hour a day enough, too much, too little, etc.

The types of classes that would be most beneficial to a cake decorator whether novice or advanced

Is the registration fee reasonable?

What else would you incorporate into the classes (i.e. a cake decorating contest?)

Any other feedback you can give would be helpful.

Thank you in advance for your time and input,

Sincerely,

Leslie

for the march 12th date do you know what the cost would be is there an early bird price for this one.  just asking
Hello,
There is an early bird price, but I am waiting too book the rooms@ a better price. The cruise line is asking for$ 1100 for an Interior which is supposed to be the least expensive. That's not a good deal.
I didn't read part of your post well. There is an early bird for this one which are the prices I quoted in an earlier post. Also, the first 10 students get the registration fee of 35 dollars waived. I'll resent the prices to you by the end of the day.

Best wishes,
Would you offer a group discount rate if enough of our members committed?


The best price is the price we have which is $465 for an inside cabin and $570 for an oceanview.  With taxes

 and fees it comes out to $624 total for an interior and $729 for an oceanview.  If you were to look at Carnival's

 website now for a 7 day to the Eastern Caribbean in October, the base prices are much higher.  If the prices go

 down prior to final payment, then Carnival will adjust your balance accordingly. The deposit schedule is $25

by April 21st (plus $35 to register) , $250 by May 26, and the final payment by Aug. 9.  If you would like to

register, the office number is 713-893-4553/1-877-688-4862, and the email is

lrobinson@cruiseplanners.com.  If you register by the 21st of April, we will waive the registration fee.

That's an amazing price!  I'd be willing to even pay a little more if I knew the classes would be a bit more intensive.  Is it open to sign up already?

Sounds like fun. I will have to check into further.

 

Thanks for info.

Is anyone going on this cruise?  I was thinking about it the other day while dealing with three unruly children and an uncooperative wedding cake.
Hi, I'm just seeing this post. I've been on the Cake Cruise on the Holland America. Sponsored by Cake Cruise.com. This year Norman Davis and Zane Beg are hosting the one to Bermuda this month. Is this a new cruise program. I might be interested.
