Never underestimate the potential for LA traffic to wreck havoc with your plans... a few tips from a local Study the FWY maps and look for routes with carpool lanes. These have the best chance for success since most drivers are one to a car. Log on to www.sigalert.com before you hit the road...

I know that this is a site for fans of cruises and specifically DCL cruises. I have been active here as I helped my son and his family with the plans for their cruise last month. They had a great time and it worked for them as they have two little ones....but in my family this is seen as a...

Ordered from Babies Travel Lite on cruise last month. They did not put our stateroom number on the box. We had housekeeping looking all around but they did not find the diapers until the morning we left. So...we paid a hefty price for diapers on the ship AND paid a fortune for diapers from...

Ordered and paid a fortune for Babies Travel Lite on cruise last month. They did not put cabin number on our package and as a result we did not get it until the morning we left the ship. Not only did we have to pay a premium to buy diapers on the ship we also had to "schlepp" another piece of...

Thanks everyone for the FE gifts. It added much to the trip.

Some things to consider. Insurance-There is a good chance that the policy will not cover you when you ignore the cruise guidelines. You may to be on the hook for all the additional costs. I would research that very carefully. Flights for Seven-It may be much more than a matter of not sitting...

It does sound like no amount of caution by others is going to change your mind about travel on Saturday AM and it is your risk to take but...I don't think insurance will help you when you book a flight that is well before the time window recommended by the cruise line. Re-booking a group of 7...

I would cook up a surprise on shore in Key West. Tell grandma that everyone is going on an excursion except for one of you. Make it something very active like scuba classes that would not work for grandma or lie and tell her it is sold out. One person will plan to spend the day with grandma...

Money saving tip. Register 4 of your family in the Ocean View (cheaper) cabin and two in the Verandah Cabin.

Considering the mess most toddlers make...they should be tipping double ;)

From what I read the rates for a car service and taxi are nearly equal...$100 one way (plus tip). After a long flight I like the idea of knowing the driver is prepared to take me exactly where I want to go. Most of the car services include a 15 minute stop at a grocery store for no additional...

Why not contact the provider and see if they can book the tour themselves? I know that sometimes the tours are ONLY available through the cruise line...but not always. I would not volunteer that I am arriving by cruise ship. I would just see if I can get a reservation for the day/time that...

Just because you did not SEE the head server does not mean he was not working his tail off to make sure you had great service.

I would be very cautious about storing items in a rental van in your particular circumstance. If someone broke in to your vehicle while you were on the cruise and stole some of your things...the inconvenience factor would be huge. I would try to arrange secure storage near the port or at the...

Since oversize limousines and oversize rental vans are both expensive you might want to look at two rental cars and caravan to the port.

Can some one give me a basic rundown of what goes the first few hours of embarkation day? Where do we eat? Are the shops open? How about the kids clubs? Can we get in an early workout in the fitness center?

Which company do you use/like for oneway rentals from the port back to MCO? Do they all offer shuttles? Who is closest? TIA
