I think the madness that was the pre-sale yesterday and today is a good indication of the madness that is likely to ensue on board. I was fortunate to snag my cabin yesterday and I have a reservation number of 132865. I don't think it's fully hit me yet that I'm booked and going to be in Europe (AGAIN!) with the Backstreet Boys. And it'll be right around my 30th birthday. What a way to celebrate.
So who else is cruising and what's your cabin number?! Can't wait for round 5!
Long time reader, first time poster 😊 your blog convinced me to fly all the way from Australia for the 2013 cruise, and I'm so glad I did! I don't know if this one will be as awesome, but I'll be there for my 30th also, so the partying will be better this year 😉 I'm staying with a friend I met through the fan club in 2013. Conf# 134178, cabin 4054 with late dining. Who knows, maybe we'll run into each other this year for a bday drink 😊 Cassie
ReplyDeleteAww! I'm so glad my blog helped push you to go on the cruise last year!! That makes me so happy, and especially because it sounds like you had a good time :D
DeleteOoooh- double birthday party on board! haha Yes, definitely hope we run into each other. Feel free to email me and we can chat further!
132882, room 3073! I can't believe how much excitement I have to deal with over the next year. In the halls of my department I DEFINITELY had to stop a few friends in the hall and yell at them about going on this cruise. I hope they're ready to endure it for the next year...
DeleteThanks again for your help finding me a roomie. I am so excited, did I mention that?! I haven't seen the boys in 15 years, I just want the cruise to start tomorrow! I have even already enlisted my very crafty mother for ideas about door decorations.

Haha...no problem! So happy to help and so happy it worked out for you and that you decided to go.
DeleteIf you want ideas for the door decoration, some fan posted a bunch on youtube if you search for 'bsb cruise door' a bunch of videos should pop up :)
My roomie and I were one of the lucky few to manage to book a cabin on the 3rd! We're both first time cruisers and we're SO excited :)
ReplyDeleteThank you for this blog by the way, it's been a lot of fun to read and also very helpful, especially the info on the booking process! Now... only 11 months to go! :p
Hey Gaby! So glad to hear you were one of the lucky few. You're going to have a blast!!!
DeleteAnd thank you so much for the kind words on my blog :D Glad you find it helpful. Feel free to email me if you want to chat more or have any other questions. See you on board!!
I might just take you up on that ;) Can't wait to meet new people! I won't really know anyone, I met my roomie on the FC the weekend before booking. But I'm really looking forward to it! Which is pretty rare for me, haha :p
ReplyDeleteYayy! There are a couple of great facebook groups you should join as well if you want to meet people. Just search for 'BSB Cruise 2016' and hopefully they come up. Though they're closed groups, so not sure if they will appear.
DeleteBut yeah, you should be excited! You're going to have a phenomenal time :)
Oh thank you for that tip, I'll definitely check that out! Btw, I'm Eruwen on the FC :)
DeleteHi! So excited to have found your blog! I'll be a first time cruiser next year (room 7555 - late dining), traveling from Texas for my 30th birthday as well! I've been reading through past posts, and it's really making me look forward to the trip even more. It'll be my first time meeting the boys - not getting my hopes up for encounters around the ship - but really excited about those precious seconds during the scheduled picture. Looking forward to reading your blog in the upcoming months and hope to see you around the ship! :)
ReplyDeleteHey Alex! I'm so glad you've found my blog too and that you decided to cruise this year. You absolutely won't regret it!! If you ever want to chat or have any questions, feel free to email me directly. Always love meeting new fans :D
DeleteThank you! None of my friends are into BSB, so I'm excited to make new connections, even if they're just online! I'll definitely reach out to you via email if I think of something :)
DeleteHi Laura,
ReplyDeleteGreat Blog. I'm planning to go to the cruise as this will be my first time there. but I'm not sure if i will enjoy it there as I'm a guy and i just want to enjoy their music and maybe have a chance to have a selfie with the boys.I went to one concert like couple of years back and it was amazing . But i feel that the cruise is more like girly thing. I'm not sure :).
Hi Mohammed! Glad you've been enjoying the blog and that youre going on the cruise the first time. The cruise is a great place to enjoy their music and have a selfie with the guys. Yes, the cruise is more skewed toward women, but there will be other guys on board. If you're a fan, regardless of gender, you'll have a great time!
