April 16, 2013 - Disney Magic out of Galveston

Hi everyone!

I didn't find a thread for this cruise so thought I'd ask if anyone from here is going on this one as well. I noticed today it is no longer showing up on the website as available Find it hard to believe it's sold out since it's the middle of the week but who knows ...maybe KFO really worked

If there is a thread already for this sailing, then my apologies.

I have two rooms booked in that cruise and I have friend that is going that same time and her neighbor is going as well. Maybe it sold out because of the kids free promo?

That's awesome. It's possible - I found it a little odd since it's a cruise in the middle of the week and there is no school break scheduled (that I know of) but who knows. The 4/12 cruise still shows availability. Whatever, I'll take a full ship over no ship any day of the week

I am on it!!! I didn't notice it missing. Strange. There were so many rooms available not that long ago. I was bummed we didn't get to take advantage of the KSF but still excited to go!!

Oh, and it is school break on the east coast so I am not too surprised if it did sell out with that promo. I am sure it's not just Maine that has that week off. I think Mass might or NH too. Not sure though.

I just checked and it is still showing up. So maybe you hit April 2014? There seems to be quite a few rooms left. Even a 1 bedroom suite.

Yep, I just saw it back up again. I swear it wasn't there earlier. Maybe they took it off temporarily like they sometimes do.

Woohoo More ppl!! Just FYI I just called and they were able to apply the KSF to my reservation in case you want to give it a try.

That web site can be so wonky at times!

Are you doing any excursions in Cozumel? This is our first cruise and trying to decide what to do was so hard! Plus it isn't that much time in port.

How exciting! Your first cruise!!! You are going to love it!!

I'm actually considering going out on my own in Cozumel. I have a 3 year old and non of the Disney excursions sound appealing to me. I've been reading a lot about Nachi Cocom Beach Club (http://www.cozumelnachicocom.com/) It's 20 minutes away from port by taxi and everyone says taxis are safe and reliable there. The place is all inclusive (food + drinks) and it's supposed to be quiet and laid back. I'm traveling with my mom and my 3 year old so no parties for me

My plan is to be off the ship by 9 and back by 1pm. May not be getting the most out of my money spent but I want to make sure I have plenty of time to get back since the ship leaves at 3:30pm.

Which ones are you considering?

Thank you! I am very excited about it!

I have heard about Nachi Cocom on these boards and that sounds fun! I actually debated doing that myself but I think we are going to do the Discover Mexico DCL excursion instead now. Being it is our first cruise and there are so many of us I am nervous about the whole taxi ride thing. Probably shouldn't be but I have never been to Mexico so I am not really sure what to expect!

I think my kids will like the Discover Mexico park. My twins are really into anything miniature right now. And my oldest son is really into Indiana Jones so he thought the ruins sounded cool because of that. (Not sure he is going to think that when he actually sees them) I guess there is a little fiesta after with lunch too. Not sure if it is going to be a hit, but we will try it and see!

st so I

Did you call to reprice for the KSF. You can still get the discount. I have 3 cabins on the April 26th cruise. I called and was able to keep the same rooms and saved $ 1800.00. I lost my on board credit , but this was the better deal. Call and see what they say...

Discover Mexico sounds like fun! I'm sure you will have a blast!

Yay!!! Another first time cruiser - that's awesome!! You guys are going to love it, I"m sure!!!

I haven't booked Nachi Cocom yet.....I just can't make up my mind!! I should probably do that soon - I think there are 4 ships docking that day in Cozumel.

Woohoo!! Welcome! Don't feel overwhelmed....if you have any questions, post them here and I'm sure there will be plenty of people willing to help answer them.

 

[jarudinski]

We are on this sailing, was starting to wonder if anyone else was on it. It will be myself, my husband, my father and our 2 daughters (14 & 8). This is not our first cruise, actually most of the cruises we have been on have been on the Magic. I will be gladto help out with any questions that I can =). It should be a nice trip. Everyone here is looking forward to having a relaxing vacation =).

 

[Ksmith1]

Me and my family will be going also. I have a 3 1/2 yr old son and a 1 yr old daughter. This will be our first Disney cruise any tips are greatly appreciated! Thanks
