As with all change it's good news for some but not for others.

This means my wages have just gone down

 

[wilma-bride]

Sorry about your wages Kenny - but I am hoping it continues to rise.

Then I just need to pick the perfect time to pay off my cruise

I need to pay mine off in the next week so I can book my reservations at the 90 day mark - I have been holding off for it to hit $1.50 so timing is just right. Funny to think that last year I would have been gutted to pay off anything at $1.50 to the £, now it seems good after the lows of the last few months.

I am holding out as long as poss hoping to rise a little more(probably drop now) not making any reservations so will take whatever the rate is on balance due date. Just glad I paid half the cruise at $2/£1.

I would be doing the same I think if I had much of it to pay. I missed the $2 to £1 rate but paid all bar a few hundred dollars when it was $1.85. Only $680 left to pay so I figure that on that balance there is not too much to be lost by paying it off and I am keen to book my Palo ressies and also Flounders hours for DD2.

Excluding the spending money the cruise is the last $ items to pay off as the rest was booked through WDW Travel UK and through UK villa owners.
