I was really torn as we have yet to do a Member Cruise, but we’re doing the Mediterranean
this summer and would prefer to do something else next summer.
I’m choking a bit on the point + cash price, given that it’s effectively more than the Mediterranean cruise on an older ship for 2 less days, but we decided we didn’t want to pass up the opportunity for the 2 stops at Lighthouse +
Castaway Cay (the only way it would’ve been more perfect is if it also had 2 stops at Castaway Cay). We opted
not to take the boys, partly because my youngest will likely still be in school if there are any snow days, even though we could have done the 3rd guest on points and rest cash hack. This’ll be a nice pre-anniversary trip for my husband and I, and fingers crossed it’ll also be a celebration of him being cancer free for a year (he starts chemo in a few weeks for bladder cancer).
I’m a little bummed Lighthouse isn’t a members cruise, though. I really wish they had made it one!
We are squeezing in waaaay too many things in our 2023 UY, so I’m actually going to have start borrowing in from 2024 for all of this.
