My membership is upgraded, and I am paid for both weeks.  I just upgraded my sisters ( sharkb8 ) membership, and I will try to get her and her plus 1 signed up tomorrow.  They have airfare already.  My sister will be a diver one week, and a non diver the second week.  Rick will be a non diver both weeks.

That is great news! The discounts apply to non-diver pkgs BUT the double dip discount of $50 can be applied to the non diver and the diver/non diver combo for your sister. I hope that makes sense.

I have booked both weeks. This is going to be a great trip!!  Looking forward to seeing old and new friends with SD.

I have my sister, sharkb8 signed up for the first week in the D/O king bed.  Her husband is joining as a non diver, but I am having an issue getting him signed up.  Both will also be on the second week as non divers in the D/O king bed once I figure it out.  Ed

We will switch her to the shared bed d/o option... she is currently in the 2 bed d/o option. The d/o non diver shared bed option says "S/O" so we will fix that and verify the amount etc. When its fixed we will let you know. I was pushing the cyber volunteers way too hard to get this open as quickly as possible and I did not do a good job of testing after they'd done it. My fault...I'm sorry folks. It will be fixed soon! Thank you! Kamala

No worries.  You and the volunteers do so much to make all of these trips special.  Thank you all.

I will be interested in a few of the night dives.  Ed

I believe I have Rick N, aka sharkb8+1 signed up for the second week as a non diver king bed share.  He will also be there for the first week as a non diver in a king bed shared room.  I am still having issues signing him up for the first week though.  Ed

Add-Ons:  please sign me up (both weeks) for:

night dives, both guided and unguided

lion-fish hunting - I have a spear I will bring

nitrox

treasure hunt

Flights are booked for Diana and Rick.  They are getting to Dominica on Friday Nov 19, and will need a room for the one extra night.

So noted, thanks Ed!

Nov 30 is my sisters birthday.  As she and Rick are both non divers that week, my guess is that they will probably do a tour that day, and then a dinner somewhere.

I will add this to the "Something to Celebrate" section of Add Ons even if they decide to have a private celebration I know Kamala and the Krewe will want to wish her Happy Birthday as well.

I am in the process of signing up for Nov 20-27th. Looking at flight options and coming down a day or so early to recoup from the long travel. Also interested in exploring the island!
