$97, $73, and $150.

$156, $97, and $239 is available.

Sleeping accomodations in either direction are $225 for a bedroom for two, or
$100 for a roomette for one.  This includes the standard Florida First Class

shoeshine, as well as the free buffet dinner with wine, breakfast, snacks, and
movies included in all fares.  All passengers have access to the Vista-dome
