Could be a good time to think about investing in RCCL stock for on board credits. $50 to $250. http://boards.cruisecritic.com/showthread.php?t=867361 |

Paul, We are booked at the Regencia Colon. We stayed at their sister hotel, the Colon, last year. Price was reasonable and we really liked the location. It is in the Bari Gothic area. Lots of things to see and do in that area. Close to the Ramblas and itis walkable to the monument where you can catch a bus to the ship. |

Lois I see you are experienced with the repositioning to Galveston cruses. Wife and I are seriously considering the one for this year. Thinking of getting on the ship Nov 22 and doing the week before and the Galveston leg. Do you have a recommendation for a reasonable place to stay in Barcelona? |

Royal Caribbean. Voyager of the Seas. It sails Nov. 29 Barcelona to Galveston. I think Royal Caribbean also has a cruise Barcelona to Ft. Lauderdale Nov. 10. Good price on either. |

Dalton, we are flying commercial this year. Got a good price from Best Travel Store so we will leave from DFW on Northwest the day before Thanksgiving. Will arrive Barcelona on Thanksgiving day. We did hop to Rota last year to take this same cruise. Then we flew from Jerez to Barcelona on Clickair. I don't think Clickair is flying from Jerez now but I think Vueling does. Are you booked on this cruise? |

Hi Jan, We would love if you and Richard were coming aboard. We aren't flying space a but booked thru a consolidator and I see even the airfare is cheaper now than what we paid. |

Hi Lois -- what an incredible deal. I don't think I have ever seen a transatlantic that low. We would snap it up if we could. Have a great time. |
