    Drydock for Wonder - September 2019 - What's Being Renewed/Improved?

    Same, but I think it hurt the flow since you usually had to step out of the way if two people were trying to pass. Although, I can't really tell from these photos if those seats are gone. The ceiling lighting remains the same, I can see that.

    Drydock for Wonder - September 2019 - What's Being Renewed/Improved?

    But, if this ship remains on the West Coast, it won't be stopping at Castaway Cay very often.

    Drydock for Wonder - September 2019 - What's Being Renewed/Improved?

    It's done that on cruises that have NOT just come from drydock as well. It seems like it is always painting and touching things up.

    Renting a car after cruise...returning at mco same day

    The PlatePass uses the license plate of the vehicle or is in the vehicle; it is not something physical that the rental company gives you (at least Hertz does not). But if you use the PlatePass, some companies charge you a per day use rate (like $4.95) whether you use it or not AND the tolls you...

    Renting a car after cruise...returning at mco same day

    Yes, the highway from MCO to PC has tolls. I think the total is $4 is each way, but I could be wrong. I think all are unmanned, so have exact change. PlatePass is what residents and rental car companies use to pay their tolls without having to stop and pay the toll. Each toll plaza is clearly...

    will we be bored?

    My wife and I do NOT have kids and we have done 12 Disney cruises. We just recently got back from a 15-day Hawaiian cruise with another cruise line and WE'RE BORED OUT OF OUR MINDS. I met another cruiser on board who agreed with me that when planning our day on Disney, there might be conflicts...

    Renting a car after cruise...returning at mco same day

    Very easy to do. I used Hertz, but whatever company you use, DO NOT prepay for tolls or use their "Plate Pass." Pay them yourself; it will be cheaper in the long run.

    Disney Wonder Hawaii Sept. 2015

    At this point, the Magic can not do Alaska cruises since it can no longer fit through the Panama Canal because of the addition of the ducktail. Once the Canal expansion is finished, ALL of the Disney ships would be able to go through and visit the West Coast.

    Our GTY has been changed to room 7126. We have just (re) signed up for the FE with our room number, but we need to change our Secret Mickey and Roll Call information. Should we redo our Secret Mickey or can someone make the change for us? JohnGar (John) and LauraGar (Laura) are now in 7126...

    April 29, 2012 ~ Aloha! ~ Inagural Wonder to Hawaii-Part 3

    "The Hunger Games" will NOT be on the ship since there is no connection to Disney. "The Avengers" WILL BE a Prem-Ear at sea at midnight on May 3, the night before we arrive in Hawaii (Hilo) since it is being released by Walt Disney Pictures. It might even be midnight EASTERN time, which would be...

    Is anyone else following this board via email not getting the feed? On my User CP I am subscribed to this thread for email for weekly updates but have been receiving any. I had no problems with the two cruises we took in September.

    OK, I just updated/added myself and the DW (LauraGar) to the Google docs and I think I did things right. She's asleep right now so I'll have to ask her later if there is other she wants to be added to. Can't wait!!!

    Those of you on the Wonder after drydock...

    OK, just got home today from 12 days on the Wonder and asked many CMs about what happened in dry dock. They all said behind the scenes stuff: welding, electrical and a ton of engine work. Every stateroom had something done to it: welding, plumbing, electrical, etc. Many said adding virtual...

    Were you the ones with the white board about the lost camera with a drawing of it? And other notes about Nacho Cheese?

    Movies on the Wonder

    Looks like we picked up a copy of Lion King in 3D when we stopped in Puerto Vallarta since updated movie lists were sent out that night. It should be on board for the next few cruises I would think.

    Serving team on the Wonder Now

    We request a server, and if he (Marlon from Costa Rica) is not available, we ask for an assistant we like. We've never asked for a particular head server, but have liked all we have had. Since Marlon is going to the Fantasy and will not be there for our Hawaii cruise (he says he will be back and...
