    Magic Dry Dock

    Sorry, wrong acronym, apparently...Rockin' Bar D night club I'm actually just quoting the captain here - it was his opinion & he went into a lot of detail about it. Apparently the Magic is already a bit top heavy. They also don't anticipate adding a concierge room at this point, but I...

    Magic Dry Dock

    We spoke with several CMs about the planned changes on our B2B out of Galveston earlier this month. The one negative (to us) change that is planned is in the staterooms - the current plan is to replace all beds with the ones built into the wall, like the sold queens on the larger ships...

    large groups linked reservations

    We had a group of 13 last yr & they seated us all together at one table - not the best choice, but you never know exactly how they will want to do it. You can always put a request in though (small, med., or large table). .

    7/13/13 ~~ Eastern Mediterranean Mouseketeers!

    Unfortunately, looks like we will be jumping ship too!! Our schedules have all changed drastically, including my son's college graduation date, & I have to cancel... Since I am handling the FE list, as well as the Secret Mickey, I'm hoping someone else will be able to now take that on?? Or...

    Cabanas on Pirate Night

    We did not receive bandanas at all on our July Fantasy cruise either...but, I did see them on tables in other stations on our way out of the dining room. :cool1: .

    September 29, 2012 - Ropin' Some Magic in the Western Caribbean

    Ah, I know that sound well....:cool1: Actually, I'm a really light sleeper so I use those squishy little earplugs...I slept like a baby!! DH can sleep through anything, but.... DS had trouble going to sleep a few times with the sound. So I agree, either bring something to drown out the sounds...

    Say it isn't so!!!

    Yes, definitely offered on the Magic!! we've done the class many times...probably too many times!! :rotfl: ..and it's still guest services to sign up there, probably since there's no District Lounge on that ship. .

    Just to clarify, no one actually gets their boarding time before they check in at the port!! The confusion for some is that DCL will issue a time for you to arrive at the port and check in - (it's for crowd control purposes, but they don't always enforce it if you want to arrive earlier)...

    Yes!! I feel like such a pioneer...lol I'm hoping we get something in our room that shows 'cruise at a glance' on this one. Love those!! :thumbsup2 But I've been on a couple DCL cruises where the captain, or cruise director changed things around once we got going, so we'll see what happens...

    Watch out for thieves. :(

    Just put a zip-tie between your FE & "fish." But remember to keep some scissors or something that will cut it off the last evening!! We sent our bags off, then remembered it...that butter knife had a workout! :rotfl2: .

    Anyone disappointed with the servers on the Fantasy?

    Our dining room experience was super disappointing on the Fantasy in July. :sad1: We were always waiting a super long time to order or receive items, were given the wrong utensils, wrong plates of food (sometimes we could just trade, but often they were from other tables), and even given the...

    Annie Marie from Palo

    A friend of ours from Guest Services moved to Concierge too... it's starting to sound like it must be a lucrative position (monetarily) as well!! Good for them!! :hippie: .

    September 29, 2012 - Ropin' Some Magic in the Western Caribbean

    I dunno, I have always thought 3 pm was perfect because it gives everyone more time to board & have lunch, get their stateroom, then pop in for the meet before the drill... & it has always seemed to be enough time to exchange info, note any room changes for FE, break the ice a bit...lol Just my...
