A family of four wants to take a cruise vacation this summer. They need help to plan and organize their trip and to stay within their budget. The family consists of a Dad, Mom, and two children (1 boy age 8 and 1 girl age 12).
This family likes having a lot of options. You have been recruited as one of the travel agencies this family is interested in. Together with your business partner, you will create a cruise vacation package for this family. You will then have to present your vacation package to the family explaining why yours is the best.
This will be a competition to see who can plan the entire vacation on the lowest budget possible. The overall budget will be $8,000. Your job is to stay within the overall budget provided. Each step will have it’s own instructions. Each group of 2 will also complete all of the missions. You will find flight(s) to Florida for the cruise, actually pick out the cruise line to the destination of your choice, organize island activities to do at each stop, and create a final pitch to the family to convince the family to pick your vacation package. The entire trip must be completed in 7 days (no more or less) during any week in August 2013.
To assist you in your planning, we have provided a table to help you keep track of your vacation expenses. You can find this table here.
Links are above for each of the missions. It is important to go in order. To start Mission 1, click 'Mission 1' at the top right of the page.
