Trinidad, Barbados, Martinique, Antigua, St Kitts, St Thomas and their private island in the Bahamas. I'll have hotel, dining 24 hours a day including room service, entertainment, shows, games, trivia competitions, lectures, complementary cocktail parties and transportation around the islands. Twice daily my cabin steward will come in and clean my room, make my bed, turn down my bed (and leave me chocolates), make sure I have clean towels and keep ice stocked in my free mini-bar. He will also pick up all my laundry I want cleaned and bring it back with shirts and slacks pressed, and even my underwear on hangers. I will get all this for $749 + $170.75 in taxes = $919.75, but...
I will get $430 back in onboard credit which will pay my gratuities of $189 and still leave me $241 in spending money or take it as a cash rebate. That means all that is going to cost me a net total of $678.75.
So tell me...Why should I travel to Columbia to see a most likely crappy game and spend as much or more?
