    Sep. 7, 2015 on the Dream

    Thank you! The September 7 cruise will be our 38th and our 14th on Disney. We have been multiple times on all four Disney ships. You will love the Dream; it is a great ship and, like all the Disney ships, in immaculate condition. We love the shows but, of course, we have already seen them...

    September 2, 2012 - Magic - NYC to Canada

    Hello, DW (Jackie) and I (Dave) will be on this cruise. I just discovered this thread and am amazed at how long it is! We are from Northern Virginia (near DC) and this is our 12th Disney cruise. However, it will be our first Disney cruise that did not leave from Port Canaveral. We will be...

    January 28, 2012-do you believe in MAGIC?

    Hello All, DW (Jackie) and I (Dave) are booked on this cruise. We live in Northern Virginia (where there was a magnitude 5.8 earthquake today, 8/23, causing a lot of inconvenience but, fortunately, no major damage)! This will be our 11th Disney cruise and so our first as Platinum Castaway...

    Things I did miss on the Dream that the older ships had....

    I missed seeing Disney Dreams (even though I saw it 8 times on the Magic/Wonder). I did not think that the replacement show (Disney's Believe) was nearly as good. I also missed Parrot Key, the duets that usually performed in the Promenade Lounge, and the short walks between all of the...

    Remy Brunch?

    DW and I received our docs today for the 2/13 Dream! We had reserved Palo Brunch on 2/16 but the Vacation Summary page in the doc reads "Dining at Remy: Brunch Table For 2". We are wondering whether this is just a typo or is the brunch really being served at Remy?

    concierge deck on Dream

    On the Magic and the Wonder, the Cat. 4 rooms that are next to the Concierge suites are not concierge so there was a need to make some special provisions for families that booked both the suite and the adjoining room. On the Dream/Fantasy, the room that is next to a suite is a Cat. V Concierge...

    Size does matter

    "Pro"s 1, 2 and 4 are advantages of larger ships. However "Pro" 3 is an advantage of smaller ships so it seems out of place in that list.

    Upgrade at Port Question

    January 9, 2010, 7 night Magic, Cat. 7 to Cat. 3, $1,740. When we arrived at the port, the Cat. 7 room we had reserved had already been assigned to another party and we were "automatically" upgraded to a Cat. 4 (without charge). We elected to pay for the upgrade to 3 instead.

    status status status

    This reminds me of a couple DW and I met a few years ago in the Disney Theatre on the Magic. We took the empty seats next to them and the gentleman immediately had to tell us that they were only cruising Disney to be with their grandchildren and that, when they are alone, they "would never be...

    Casaway Club levels Gripe

    There have been several posts here comparing Disney's loyalty program to those of other lines. DW and I are RCCL Diamond members and Disney Gold members. Yes, RCCL gave us double credit whenever we were in a Junior suite, which is not really a suite but comparable (in both size and price) to a...

    Why is the prices higher than other line?

    Disney is functioning as a Premium Cruise line (like Celebrity or Cunard) rather than as a mainstream line (like Carnival, RCCL or NCL). Differences from the last three include: No revenue from Casino, passengers permitted to bring their own alcohol on board, more expensive entertainment...

    The Magic Navigator's Verandah

    The Secret Veranda Rooms are DW and my favorite rooms too. They are very quiet and they guarantee you an "inside" station for the Lifeboat drill, a big advantage if the weather is chilly or very hot or if you just dislike standing around with a lifevest on. However, what fascinates me is that...
