Windjammer Barefoot Cruises is communicating again -- and the news isn't good
Ever heard of the "Coconu Telegraph" (found at www.coconutelegraph.com)? It's a little-known Windjammer website that often carries items that don't appear on its main website (www.windjammer.com,). A current press release is awfully discouraging:
Dear Shipmates,Write and read comments about this post.
We are contacting you about an important change to your upcoming cruise. We regrettably must inform you that S/V Legacy will not sail the week of December 8th, 2007. Unfortunately we have been unsuccessful in our attempts to overcome the vast difficulties and roadblocks that have hampered our operation of late; with enough time for this cruises to sail. We are and will continue to endeavor to bring Windjammer back and offer the great vacation we all want and deserve. We truly apologize for any inconvenience this has caused.
If you choose to reschedule, we will gladly re-accommodate you on a future sail date, past April 2008. If you are unable to re-schedule your cruise for a later date and decide to request a refund, please know, that in time, we will issue you a complete refund of your paid cruise fare.
Regrettably, Windjammer Barefoot Cruises will not be able to cover any air or hotel costs incurred and associated with this or another sail date or ship. We are also unable to cover any air costs if you request a cruise refund, unless air was booked with Windjammer directly.
Please contact our Customer Service line at 1 (800) 327-2600, if you chose to reschedule your cruise. Otherwise, we will process your refund in full.
Once again we are truly sorry for any inconvenience this matter has caused you. We hope you will be able to re-schedule your cruise.
