Cruise-o-Gram #4

Greetings Cruising Classmates,

Less than 8 months remain until we set sail, Nuremberg to Budapest (5-12 October)!  The Viking Cruise Ship Europe is just about ready to weigh anchor. (Well, almost!)

Today's Cruise-o-Gram is all about reminding you that the 4th, yes 4th, of the 5 payments to charter the Cruise Ship Europe will be due to Worldtek NLT 7  March, so that they will be able to make this payment to Viking on time. 

AS ALWAYS, IT IS CRUCIAL THAT THIS DEADLINE BE MET, so check your mail box, for shortly after 7 February, you'll be receiving a snail mail invoice from Worldtek.  Look for it! With this 20% payment, we will have achieved 90% of the total payment;  we are truly on the downhill track to full Charter of the Cruise Ship EUROPE.

Also, now is the time to finalize your definitive travel  plans!

Enclosed with your next invoice #4   will be a memorandum from Worldtek which lays out where we are regarding such things as air travel, extensions to Prague and/or Budapest, transfers, and a heads up regarding the on board lunch and dinner optional soft  drink, beer and wine package. Please read this Worldtek memo very carefully for it is loaded with information which takes us into the final payment and other related cruise activities. Forward any questions or issues to Worldtek, Ms. Elma Korzick e.korzick@worldtek.com our travel contact.

Be sure to stay in touch by visiting the Class of '61 2008 River Cruise Mini-reunion web site which is continually updated with all the latest cruise info, itinerary, life on the river, and those extended stay opportunities in Prague and/or Budapest. The site also has the current listing of who is going on the extensions. The web site is at http://www.aogusma.org/Class/1961/2008VikingRiverCruise.htm   Finally, The Viking River Cruise "Policy Statement: Guests with Special Needs", should be reviewed to determine if some action on your part is required.   It is on the Class River Cruise web site as well.

Words for the Day - Think timely payment due 7 March - and finalize your  air  travel plans!

The River Awaits!
