Well, it's a long way off, Joanna, why not sign on and return, especially if it is one of your favorites! That's why I've returned to Alaska, Norway, and the Med!

I think I'll probably be waving at you all in the "holding area" as I disembark in Osaka. Can't decide what to do in 2009 - but there is still time to save those pennies to try for a double segment. :)
I'm going to feel like Helen did in greeting the ICEers.

We cannot be away for a month. Since we had requests for both cruises, we were going to do half of our time on Osaka to Hong Kong joining in Beijing and and half of our time on Hong Kong to Singapore debarking in Bangkok.
With Andi's change to the Hong Kong to Singapore trip, and some other changes that took place, Ken and I have decided to not escort Oaska to Hong Kong, and move to staying on the Hong Kong to Singapore for the whole cruise.
This has no negative effect for anyone on the Osaka to Hong Kong.
Just for your information, I have decided if I ever change an escorted trip that was announced I will do the following.
PEOPLE STILL WANT TO GO.
Those booked still receive the higher BK reward and an entry into a drawing for a free cruise on the escorted trip immediately following the trip they take.
PEOPLE WANT TO CANCEL
If people want to cancel I will pay any penalities if they cannot be applied to another booking, and offer them the higher BK reward on their next cruise, escorted or not.
Any change would be well in advance so no air or FF implications. Sometimes things just develop that change the situation and it makes sense to adjust accordingly.

What is it about leaving for one cruise (GAME/SAMBA) that makes us plan another one?
Add Alan and me to DRAGON (Vietnam). Plus, we're getting on in Osaka. So that's Osaka to Singapore for us, #845. Yeah! We finally decided on a cruise for 2009. Looking forward to seeing old friends and making new ones.

Oh wow Donna, what a great trip. I agree with Joanna, that is a winner. We are going to think about our 2009 plans while on this trip!! There are several places on our never ending short list. I'm sorry I forgot, when are you leaving??? We are out of here on Thursday.......

We leave early Tuesday morning. I'm all packed. Now, I have to get back to the work that I've ignored for the last couple of days. Writing 12 blog posts to schedule for while I'm gone will not be fun!

Add us to Segment 2.  We had to cancel Viking, so this is the replacement cruise. Now we have to wait 10 months

I have just rebooked this cruise, and really look forward to seeing old and new friends again! Is anyone going into HK early? I haven't even thought about air, as I'm sure chances of getting a ff ticket are just about nil.

Thanks, Dena, just don't put me on a walking tour that includes 500 steps UP! (just kidding, I would sign up for anything you organize if it doesn't include the strange foods that you love!)

I lucked out, not booking 331 days out, and was able to get ff biz tickets for this cruise, coming in a couple of days early, just the schedule I wanted. There was a blurb on CNN about more ff biz and first seats being available because of the economy. http://www.cnn.com/video/#/video/living/2009/02/08/howard.first.class.cnn It doesn't seem to be working for some on Paris, but maybe closer to the cruise they will open up.

Alan and I are on from Osaka to Singapore. Have not made any plans about this cruise yet. Need to start looking at air. We don't have enough ff miles to help. Looking forward to spending time with a wonderful group of LCT'ers.

Haven't check here for awhile. Olivia glad to be sailing with you again. Susan welcome to the group. We still need to work on airfare. Since we're not using ff miles, have been putting it off. Need to get on this.

Jim and Pam will be on Hong kong to Singapore than flying to Cambodia to do Angkor Wat for 4 days. It will be another place on my bucket list. Have always wanted to go there. Hope we have some pooch players on board though this is a busy schedule so not alot of time to play. Still not real happy about 3 formal nights. Thinking of Fex ex Jim's tux to Hong Kong to lessen the weight. Trying to keep it to 1 bag per person for out flights to cambodia.

When we went to Angkor Wat after our Mariner Cruise in 2007, we stored our extra large bags at the Bangkok airport--we had been on the Mariner for PANDA too, for a total of 26 nights. I realize you will be going from Singapore, but you might not want to worry about the luggage and just store it at the airport--assuming, of course, that you're returning to Singapore.
We just did this in Paris, too, so we wouldn't have to schlep luggage on the train after LION. Was more expensive in France, but well worth it.
