Default Book in US or UK?


Well I'm outraged! Why should one have to pay a premium just because
they're British!?

I mean I live in a Commenwealth country and I can pay my price or a
Yank's price!

Hi

I want to book a Star Clipper mediteranean cruise for this Summer. The same
cruise is available from a US agent for $500 less per person than from a UK
agent! However, the US agent says the deal is only available to US
residents! - I have a UK passport.

Should I order from the US and take my chances?

Hi Andrew,

I don't know the specifics of this booking. That being said, you
might want to contact another US agency. Many agencies book folks
from all over the world on cruises and their citizenship is never a
factor. We, and other agents, do this all of the time. We count many
British subjects among our loyal clientele. vbg I have been
fortunate enough to sail with some of my international clients. As we
say in Texas, they were quite a hoot. ;+) Don't take the word of one
agency that you contacted. Try another US agency.

Best regards,
Ray
