Hello Valerie

I would suggest that you repost this on the ASK YOUR EDITOR. Direct your question to Ben and he will give you an up to date answer. A lot of travellers are not on the community and I would be surprised if you were the only one.

Hi Valerie,

There are 9 fellow travellers confirmed on your cruise, with a further 4 optional bookings waiting to be confirmed so you are by no means alone,

I hope this helps,

Kindest,

Ben

Oh dear not that many booked for this holiday. I have been told Just You/Travelsphere have been known to cancel holidays if there is not enough uptake.

Hi Valerie,

all travel companies cancel holidays if there is not a big enough uptake to make the holiday viable for them; however I reckon it doesn't matter when it is a cruise, as JY will just be booking places on a cruise run by another company rather than running the cruise themselves, so there is no minimum number of JY places needed. On the other hand, the company running the cruise would have to have a certain number booked altogether before it would run! Ben, correct me if I've got that wrong! Hope you have a wonderful time, it sounds like a fantastic holiday, with a real mixture of places to visit.

Best wishes,

Bob

Good morning Valerie, Bob,

Bob - you are quite correct in what you say, thankyou.

Valerie, have a lovely holiday, the other Just You customers booked on this tour I'm sure will make themselves known, they may not be members of the forum, but just look out for the Just You luggage labels on the day,

Anything else, please just ask,

Kindest,

Ben

Please take heart not every one uses these boards before they go, I for one do, but I have been on many holidays where people either do not post on here or they just dont DO THE INTERNET thing. I am sure you will be fine. I have been on 8 tours and they have all been very good, So relax and enjoy..

Valerie, I agree completely with Cindy - and on some occasions when I have made contact with people on the forum before going on a holiday they have not been the people that I socialised with while away! So it really doesn't matter if you make contact beforehand or not, as Ben said keep an eye for the distinctive JY labels and I am sure JY will have organised somewhere for you all to meet up once aboard, even if there is no rep on the cruise (check your final documents when they arrive to see what has been said about this - if not I suggest you ring JY to see what the story is). They wouldn't leave you alone I am sure of that!

Have a great holiday,

Bob

Thanks to all who responded to my pleas! However there was a mix up with this holiday, the itinery I expected/was told was not happenning on this cruise, so managed to cancel and I am now booked on the South African Experience at Xmas. So here we go again. Val
