Was so excited for this trip, but unfortunately, chronic sciatica is preventing me from going. I'm not too big on sharing, so I paid the single rate of $4800.00 for my own room (double diver rate was $3995 and double non-diver was $3229 for reference). Offering an $1800.00 discount for a total of $3000.00!

If you're not in driving distance from PHL, you would need to get air from your location to Philadelphia. I am waiting for them to send me the flight times and will update this post shortly with that information. If you need to fly into PHL the night before, I'm also willing to offset the cost of a hotel room near the airport up to $200.00.

This trip is being run by Lancaster Scuba in Lancaster, PA. Go ahead and treat yourself...you deserve it!

I'm in PHL, and quite interested...but have some questions.

How would you accept payment?
Would you provide a copy of your contract with Lancaster Scuba in advance of any payment, to ensure that the trip is transferable to another person?

The Lancaster Scuba website lists other upcoming international trips, but there's no mention of this one.
Diving:
  • Scuba Dominica

A quick search didn't show me a dive operator by that name, and that's not the name of the on-site operator at the Fort Young hotel.

Once I've got some reassurance that the trip exists as described, with accurate details, I'd be glad to follow up via DM, phone, or in-person (certainly to work out payment details).

Hey, sorry for any confusion. I typed that off the the email they had sent out.

Here is the link to the trip.
I'm pretty sure payment would be made directly to Lancaster Scuba at 201 Greenfield Rd., Lancaster, PA, and they'll reimburse me. Their phone number is 717-397-2822 and you can ask for Pete (manager) or Gini (owner).


Let them know you would be interested in taking my spot...my name is Michelle Reynolds. I promise, this is legit!

Actually, they may have filled it already, but please give Pete or Gini a call on Monday to confirm. They didn't let me know, but when I called them just now to say that someone might be interested, they mentioned it.
