WeeBee Travel Sets up Shop in Tennessee
Hi Friends!  Many of you probably wondered why you haven't heard from us in a while
(there was no newsletter published last month).  Well, the reason is because we have just
set up our new office in Memphis, Tennessee.  It was a huge move, but one we have been
planning for over 2 years!  Thanks to Jehovah all went smoothly and the friends here have
really welcomed us with open arms.  Memphis is famous for its blues & soul music (BB King,
Isaac Hayes, Al Green and Johnnie Taylor are all from the Memphis area); it's also famous
for delicious BBQ and of course, Elvis Pressley.  We are still operating from New York as
well, so feel free to continue to use our local number there.....

How to Organize a Group Cruise (and get Yours for Free!)
If you have ever been on a cruise, at some point or another, you probably said "I bet
so-and-so would love to go one of these"
, or even "I bet I can put one of these together and
everybody would come!"
.  Well truth is:  you're right.  Planning a group cruise is not only
easy, it's fun .... and the reward of it is you get a
FREE CRUISE out of it.  When you book
your group cruise through WeeBee Travel, we provide the following services to you: online
registration for your guests, both an online and a paper flyer to share with your friends
and family, around-the-clock assistance, and personalized attention.  Once you have 15
persons confirmed on the sailing, the 16th cruise is FREE.   So that means you let us do all
the work, and you get a cruise out of it.  It's really a win-win situation.   So call or write us
now to begin planning your group cruise with WeeBee Travel, the Group Travel Specialists.
Rising Oil Prices Affect Airfare Rates
I don't need to tell any of you how expensive gas is these days.  Folks here in Memphis
are up in arms over it, as are all of you in New York where gas has finally broken the
record!  We're all feeling it.  Well now we will be feeling it even more.  Continental (as well
as several other major airlines) announced yesterday that they will be imposing a fuel
surcharge on their flight prices that will go as high as $10 each way for flights up to 1000
miles, and as much as $20 each way for flights above 1000 miles.  That is a huge increase,
and unfortunately will fall back on you, the consumer.  Although the prices are high,
however, there are still continually big fare sales coming out all the time.  So although your
surcharges on a $69 one way fare can be as much as $30, the base fare is still going to be
low.  It must be the airline's way of trying to keep your business.  We here are committed
to helping you find that "best price" on your airline tickets.  So don't hesitate to call on us.
Travel News & Specials for June / July
Another Airline in our Midst.....  New to Washington D.C.'s Dulles Airport:  
INDEPENDENCE AIR.  Banking on the success of many other smaller
discount airlines (such as Jet Blue, AirTran and Southwest), this one seems to
be moving quickly and offering lots to compete with the "big boys".  They were
partnered way back when with United, but took on a new identity after UA filed
bankruptcy.  Fancy website, and adding cities all the time.  Visit them at

Grand Bahama Island, 3-4 nights from $349, including Air
3 and 4 night packages departing from 5 cities (Cincinnati, Cleveland,
Raleigh/Durham, Hartford and Richmond).  Select departure dates in June.  Limited
space, and taxes / fees do apply.
