Travel agents can search EACH Airline at one time, and check the rules of every fare they offer. Many airline tickets are less expensive if you fly on a certain day OR a certain hour of a day. Fly in the day before the cruise, and attend the pre cruise party. Transfers from Bradenton to the cruise terminal can be arranged at a lower price then cruise line or airline transfers. We will be sailing to Nassua, Bahamas.
Shopping is available in abundance.
Haggling with the vendors in the straw market is awesome. The average souvenior runs between 10 and 20 dollars. 10 bucks will get you 3 t-shirts. Average wood carving is around 15.00 dollars. You would do well to bring your own mask, snorkle, and fins.
