    Does anyone fly same day for their cruise?

    Unless ABSOLUTELY necessary due to work or finances, I consider it foolish to fly in the day of. "Stuff" can still happen no matter when you fly in, but why take on the extra stress? JMO because you asked :)

    Kid's Club Question

    As long as she is fully potty-trained by then, and able to know how and when to get herself in the restroom and take care of her own clothing, wiping, washing etc, the CM's will most probably let her attend the Club. You won't be able to register her online, but once at the terminal, or...

    Locking Luggage?

    While we're on the subject of locking things up (not to hijack the thread, sorry!), here is what we use at pools, on the beach and at waterparks for phones, cc's, KTTW, a little cash, IPODS, etc. Works like a charm! http://www.secure-it.com/shop/index.php/cPath/59_63

    Locking Luggage?

    Yes, it's 2 locks per package. If you purchase more than 1 package, the price is the lower price quoted. I love them, because if TSA opens my bag, they usually leave the little piece of paper, and the security "window" shows red instead of green. No paper, I look through everything before...

    Locking Luggage?

    These are what I use all the time when traveling. Have never had a problem, and I know instantly when someone has opened my luggage (TSA, Port, etc.) http://www.magellans.com/store/Luggage___Luggage_Accessories___Luggage_Locks___TagsSL742

    Tips

    You tip eveyone on the last night of the cruise traditionally. With a couple of days left in the cruise, there will be envelopes left in your stateroom (Server, Asst Server, Head Server, Stateroom Host/Hostess). You may either tip cash, or much more easliy, go to Guest Services and let them...

    Dine alone or with table mates?

    Maybe, maybe not. One cruise, we sat with another family as well as a honeymoon couple. We all had a blast. We've been blessed with great tablemates each time we've cruised. Knock on wood!

    Rebooking questions

    Why not rebook for your next cruise after that then? You could book a dummy date for a future cruise and move it once dates/rates open up for that year (for instance, 2013 dates/rates don't open until maybe October this year). Meanwhile you have a rebooked cruise at a discount with OBC sitting...

    what night to eat at Pala

    Have you sailed before? If not, why not just enjoy your regular rotation this time? Especially since this is just a 4 night cruise. You may be able to snag a Palo brunch reservation once on board. This way you can get the full effect of the rotation and save Palo dinner until your next cruise.

    First meal when you board

    At lunch on the first day, Parrot Cay is a buffet. Topsiders/Beach Blanket/Cabanas will have virtually the same buffet. If you have dinner at Parrot Cay the first night, it is sit down. The difference between the venues at lunch upon boarding is that you will be seated by staff at Parrot...

    Rain forest

    It's all a matter of timing. You don't just stand there and hover over the people lounging in one, waiting to snatch one up (if someone did that to me, I'd purposely settle in for a long nap, LOL!). If you go in the evenings, say during late dining, you may find them completely empty. Same...

    First meal when you board

    For the buffet luncheons, yes. And the food is basically the same, there might be one or two small variations. There is also availability at the quick serves on Deck 9 (Magic/Wonder) that serve the standard pizza, burgers, fries, chicken strips, etc. You could eat at the pool and get your...

    I rented DVC points and hoping that it turns out ok

    Only DVC members are allowed to call that number. The CM's won't speak to non-members. Renters can, however, get a confirmation number from the member they rented from and check it online.

    DCL Raises Prices

    It's doubtful that it will drop. Look at it like airline prices, the further out you book, the lower the price. The closer in, the higher the price. The lowest price is almost always the first day the dates are released. If prices are going up now, that usually means that date is...
