Hi!

Just want to introduce myself. I'm Javier from the San Francisco, Bay Area. I'm new here, and I'm excited to be apart of this great community!

I'd love to hear about buying tips (where to get the best deals) for Royal Caribbean and Carnival Cruises. I'm about ready to book a cruise and I'd love to know your experiences when buying your cruise holidays.

Welcome aboard! Think you'll find that a pretty awesome group of people hang out around here ready to answer any questions you have about cruising as well as anything else that may come along.

I'm about to embark on my 1st cruise in 6yrs so can't tell you about searching for the best deals. My recommendation would be to find yourself a good TA to help you.
