We were just at WDW last August, and it was awesome. Never had to use a fastpass, as the normal lines were very short or nonexistent. Many rides/attractions we were able to walk right onto/into. Perhaps this was a fluke because it was HOT, not sure.

My family of 4 (kids ages 6 and 4) are booked on the Dream for a 5 nighter in August 2012. Our first DCL experience was on the Wonder two years ago over Easter break. We loved the Wonder, and particularly enjoyed the fact that the ship NEVER felt overly crowded. After reading some reviews...

I made the trip with my wife and sons (2yrs and 4yrs) from the Detroit suburbs. Weather could be an issue until you get thru KY, but it will likely not be a non issue. Just plan on stopping every 2-3 hours for potty/stretch breaks, and realize that you will lose at least 45 minutes each time...

I'd rather not be held hostage by Disney and wait to see if their prices drop. There are so many other great deals, I'd be worried that if I waited, the other deals would diappear. My plan is to put a deposit on someting else, and wait to see if something better comes along before final...

My family (Myself, wife, 2 boys ages 2 and 4) cruised with Disney last April, and are doing so again in December. I am considering cruising with another line next April (prices are so great, waaaay cheaper than Disney). My wife and I cruised with Princess, Royal Carribean, and Carnival prior...

You could probably call me a water snob.....but I thought the water on the ship was very good. Better than some bottled water in fact. We bought 6 large bottles of water on board, and didn't use them all. It was far more convenient to drink the ship's water

We just got off the Wonder with a 3.5 year old and a 19 month old. My wife and I are borderline paranoid about the safety of our children, and will not just blindly leave our kids with anyone. That being said, we had a very positive experience. The ship is very kid safe with high railings and...

I was on Castaway Cay on April 19th, and didn't find the water temp unbearable at all (it was 78 degrees). If felt a little chilly when first walking in, but after a few seconds, felt completely comfortable. My 19 month old and three year old played in the water at the family beach for almost...

I am looking for suggestions for a good, family oriented restaurant to eat at the night before our cruise. Does anyone have any suggestions or favorites?

Has anyone had any issues with your car getting broken into (or any other security issues) while parking your car at the hotel during your cruise?

I agree with the above post. I like almost any food, but it is evident that DCL has "cheapened" the menu. It doesn't take a chef to compare the old and new menus and see where they have cut costs. Time will tell if this was a wise decision.....my guess is that it will not be.

Thanks for the info everyone. My umbrella is staying home!

What is the best food item you have had on a Disney ship outside of the dining room? I know I can't try everything, so I'm looking for help to narrow it down! Thanks!

Are there beach umbrellas (or other forms of shade) available at Castaway Cay? I would like for the family to have some shade, but still be out on the beach. I do not want to bring mine unless I absolutely have to.

I am not looking for a reason. I have heard of hundreds, if not thousands, of positve experiences with both the kids clubs and Flounder's, as people are eager to praise on this board. I am only seeking to see both sides before I entrust the two of the three most important people in my life to...

As I mentioned in my OP, I am not necessarily concerned with accidents/injuries. I agree that those can happen anywhere. What I am looking for are instances where perhaps a rude counselor was encountered, a child was ignored or treated poorly, bad attitudes were observed, kids could not be...

Has anyone ever had a negative experience at the kids clubs or Flounder's Reef on the Wonder? My wife and I are about to take our first cruise since having kids, and are planning on using both facilities. I have heard MANY positive things, but am protective of my children, and am slightly...

I need a place to stay the night before our April cruise from Port Canavral. I can't seem to make up my mind about where to stay and need help. It seems the longer I wait, the higher rates are getting. I don't care if it is near the beach, or if it has a pool, or if it has free...

Thanks for the info. I still am a little confused about the kids club. Am I able to sign my 3 yr old up for the kid's club prior to sailing, or can you only do it once aboard? My sailing falls over Easter break, so I am more concerned about things filling up.

This is our first Disney Cruise, and I have questions about making online reservations. 1. January 31st is the first day I can book/reserve things online. Should I go on at 12:01 tonight for best availability? Will the website be slow because everyone will be doing the same thing? 2...
