Need Cruisefish Help
I just joined Cruisefish after seeing a post here about it. It looks like a very good site.
My question concerns the stateroom price that you want monitored. Do you enter the single person rate or the price for two? Also, do you include taxes and fees or not?
Unfortunately, they have no FAQ and there is no customer support email address. I'm hoping a fellow FT'er will know the answer to these twoquestions. Thanks in advance.

Cruise fares are almost always quoted per person based on double occupancy (like hotel rates in Europe) so just go with that basis.
Taxes & fees are generally a fixed amount so I usually leave it out. just watch the net when comparing though.
What CF does not do, of course, is provide targetted customer and local residence fares. I'm watching a cruise for next year and the fares have been static. The cruise line has offered my local fares 1/2 the published rate but it's still 2x more than what I think they should be.
