February Fling Cruise

If you've never been on a cruise before you are honestly missing out on one of the BEST ways to vacation. EVERYTHING is taken care of and taken care of brilliantly. I've been on two cruises in the past and wanted to cry on the last day because it was so amazing, I just didn't want to go home!

I've been wanting to book a cruise with Mingle Around for quite a long time, and now that we've got over 1,400 members I'm positive we can get at least 20 of our sassy singles to book a cruise with us.  

Here's the deal.

I'm going on a cruise during the middle of our Chicago winter and want you to come with! I don't care if I don't know you yet; we'll meet while dining, dancing, drinking and laying in the sun. You can bring twenty of your best friends, your sister or brother or co-worker or you can do what most single travelers do and book the trip alone. Our Mingle group can hang out the whole time, part of the time or just meet up at dinner. I personally plan on laying on the pool side for the entire 5 days while posting occasional status updates on twitter and FB to make all my snow covered single friends in Chicago jealous. You can go on excursions, gamble, see amazing shows or have a spa day. You can even learn how to make those cool towel animals. (If you've been on a cruise you know what I'm talking about!) ... Sorry I'm rambling, but I'm just so excited!

Mingle Around is taking a ride on a cruise with "Singles Travel internationall", a professional singles travel company. They take care of all the details. They will find you a roommate if you want to share a room (much cheaper) or you can find a roommate with MEETUP (I'll post in discussion) or on the FB MingleTravel page. You can book a room all for yourself if you'd rather have the privacy. Me, I'm booking the room with a friend because I'm all about saving some cash!

Air fare is not included. Typically it's under $300 round trip. We can all try to book the same flight outta Chicago and arrive in Miami together, or just go our own way. As long as you're on the ship by 4pm we'll be fine!  

We will be cruising with ALOT of singles from around the country so be ready to meet lots of new friends.

STI has other cruises and travel information- go to the sight to check it out. I want to book a travel event each month, if you guys are interested.I can't afford to go every month (not even every three months!) but I can post other trips on meetup in case you are interested in finding travel partners.

    Ha on all 41 sq ft of it :-), but we could fit a few. Ah and I have to change my departure flt. Thank goodness Southwest doesn't charge a fee like those other loser airlines. Checked this morning and the Orange Line can't get me to Midway by 5am, so I'm thinking I will take a later flt the day before and stay with some friends in Coral Springs.
