JY sister company already does the trip and of course we could do that and pay the single supplement but to be honest travelling with couples doesn't appeal to many of us.

Looking at travelspheres trip and paying for sole occupency of a single room the 16 day trip would cost around £2,300.

So lets see how many of us would like to holiday along this famous route and maybe if there is enough of us JY will take note and add it to next years brochure.

Count me in.

Following my recent post asking what holidays people would like JY to do "Route 66" seems a popular choice and it was suggested we started a petition.

COUNT ME IN TOO. Would really love to go on Route 66.

If the itinerary was similar to Travelsphere I would take this trip.(Would still like route 61 though)

Hi Sue,

Route 61 would be superb for us Blues music fans but at least Route 66 starts the same way with Chicago & St Louis.

Have you been to any of the Cities on R61 ?

I love Chicago my favorite city, been a few times and was considering going to the Blues festival this year in June but opted for Parks & Canyons with JY instead.

Also been to St Louis and Memphis (Beale street was great fun). Never been to New Orleans, been booked twice but Katrina stopped me in 2005 and Gustav in 2008, must get there one day.

Hi Mick

Although I have been to the US quite a lot, the only "music" city was Nashville and that was some years ago. Never been to Chicago. Love New York and San Francisco. I hope to get to New Orleans one day.

Come on JY sort out the arrangements and you can have my booking NOW.

Wow you really have set the ball rolling haven't you? There seem to be so many people interested and for whom this is a 'trip of a lifetime' - me included.

As you and others say,Travelsphere have this set up for them already so it would be easy to arrange a few trips for Just You.

At this rate you will have filled the first trip up.

I have priced this with both Travelsphere and a rival company but a trip with Just You would be better inasmuch as there would be no couples.

I hope it all comes to fruition - it won't be through want of trying if it doesn't. Good luck.

Be happy,

Best wishes,

Hi Lesley,

Yes lets hope JY do get their act together and provide us with this holiday opportunity. Reckon we've already 10+ of us on this forum showing genuine interest and reckon only about 10% of JY customers use the forum so that number could be 100+.

Of ourse we may have to revert to plan "B". Thats where all us singles get our heads together and block book one of the Travelsphere trips, lol.

Joking aside think I'm doing route 66 in stages, been to Chicago (love the place) numerous times, did St Louis 5 years ago, saw LA with JY's Golden West hol last year and doing Parks & Canyons in June which will take in Flagstaff.

Mick

Count me in, I would book it now so that I know I was on it!

Unlike Mick who missed New Orleans due to Gustave, I was in the country at Nashville and Memphis with Thomas Cooke as a single and 15 couples (2 other singles in their 70's!!!). We hit New Orleans as Hurricane Ike roared by. Surreal standing on Bourbon Street , drink in hand listening to Blues with 50 mph winds. Great fun but not the same as a Just You trip to Jordan and Egypt last year- where everyone is single makes it so much friendlier.

I'm pleased to say that we are now hoping to include a Route 66 holiday for 2012! It's not 100% certain yet but it is something we would like to add having seen all your comments. So fingers crossed, you will all be able to make this famous journey next year.

Kind regards

Olly, your editor
