We were in 2573 on the Magic in February. I'd have to check where that is in relation to 2632, but we liked 2573 a lot. It was perfectly quiet and super easy to get to any of the activities on the main deck (deck 3). We never needed an elevator for dinner -- just down the hall and up a few...

I did it online at the internet cafe on the Magic and got boarding passes number 1, 2, 3, and 4. I have also heard of a service ($5 each???) where you prearrange with a web site (can't remember the name) and the web site reserves your boarding passes for you at the time you specify. The...

Amen to my suit-hating brothers! I wore a suit and tie (not a tux) for formal night on the Magic-Eastern back in Feb. My DW had gone to a lot of trouble to book the cruise (with no help from me) and I didn't want to cause any problems. (It was our first cruise and I didn't really know what to...

I didn't make it up to Deck 9 for the Pirate Party buffet until after 11PM. They had tons of food, chili, fajitas, LOTS of desserts -- and almost no one taking it by that late hour! They were in no hurry to put the food away and I bet it was there til nearly midnight. I wished I hadn't eaten...

I've known lots of people with FRS/GMRS radios (I have 4 of them), but I have never known anyone to even attempt to get a license. I think it's an outdated and unenforced requirement that no one takes seriously enough to repeal.

If you are trying to look it up on their on-line reservation page, it is in "Cape Canaveral" and I think it has the Budget location code of "CC5". I thought the Cape Canaveral Budget office was great in getting us quicky from the ship to their location, getting us in our car, and getting us...

We stayed not far away in 2573 and loved it. It was nice and quiet, the movement of the boat was less on that floor than anywhere else on the ship, and it was so easy to hop up the stairs to the 3 main restaurants. My family and I would gladly stay in 2573 again! -Jeff

And where was the Dumbotron screen over Goofy's pool? And where was Goofy's Galley!? It would be nice if they updated the whole thing.

I was the person who wrote saying that the boat ride there and back was wild and it was!! But I have to think that it was an unusual occurence and it can't be that bad most of the time. Yes, the dolphins were wonderful and amazing, the food was just fine, and the beach was outstanding. We...

Same here. I detest wearing ties, but I did bring a suit and tie since my DW went to a lot of trouble to book the trip and I was afraid it would be a problem if I showed up at dinner looking like a bum. I shouldn't have worried about it. I saw guys in golf shirts and khakis every night -...

Hi Marcy! If you take a look, several of the posters already expressed the same opinion that I had: I don't especially care about the ports! I like to know about everyone's experience on the boat -- good, bad or whatever! Thank you to everyone who posted their cruise reviews. I've read...

It's very popular for smokers also. -Jeff

We had all of our suitcases no later than 5PM, but what I didn't expect is that each bag arrives separately. I had assumed, somehow, that they would all come together, or maybe in two bunches. (We had 6 suitcases.) But, no, when they see one with your room number, they bring it down to you...

We went on the Anguila dolphin excursion in February - me, DW, DS-9 and DD-11. DS and DD loved the dolphins -- you absolutely do get in the water with them, kiss them, dance with them, etc., but the wildest part of the day was one that we didn't expect. The 45-minute ferry boat ride was the...

We were in 2573 and it was perfectly quiet there. We were under Lumiere's, but never heard noise from above. I do recommend turning the room thermostat fan from AUTO to ON and that covers up a lot of noise with a constant whooosh sound. I walked down toward 2050 one day and it was VERY...

I admit to being one of the slugs who failed to show up for early immigration in St Thomas. I simply did not take it seriously. I'm a US citizen, St. Thomas is a U.S. territory, and I wasn't getting off the boat in St. Thomas. So, why do I need to show my passport!? In fact, I wasn't going...

I checked the Navigator from our 2/4 Magic Eastern cruise Navigator and Goofy's Galley hours were in general: 7AM - 9:30AM: Fruit, pastries, donuts, croissants 11AM - 6PM: Fruit, sandwiches, pasta 11AM - 11PM: Self serve ice cream Sorry, they don't have anything like chocolate chip...

My family was in 2573 also (2/4/06 Magic Eastern) and I agree it was very quiet, especially if you turn your room thermostat fan to ON (instead of AUTO) -- It covers up any hallway sounds or the people next door. I could barely get DW and kids to wake up in the morning! I did take a walk down...

I will offer a dissenting opinion: I thought the early immigration wake-up was obnoxious. We were not going on excursions, it was the morning after the Pirate Party, they started making announcements over the speaker in the cabin at 6:30AM, and at this point in the cruise my kids had gotten used...

My kids and I found the shoreline of Castaway Cay to be full of a million broken seashells. If your kids run around barefoot a lot, they probably wouldn't mind, but my kids and I went looking for other areas that weren't so jagged and ended up playing on a sand bar near where the banana boat...
