Agreed - and that's why I wanted to be clear that this was just one interaction with a Cast Member over the phone who said that this was a recent change. I haven't seen the change to 10 years announced as policy (yet), and as nice as this CM was, it's not the same as an official announcement...

Hey friends, Although a little late to this discussion, I’d like to share my experience with Castaway Club status that just occurred to me today and I thought to share. Background: I'm a cruise newbie. Had my first cruise via DCL in February 2019 – and due to pandemics, family passings, job...

Thanks! At the risk of repeating myself, I wanted to thank you for your suggestion. My TA and I discussed this last night and she said the exact same thing. Glad to know others found success - we are hopeful, but not hinging our trip on this. It's very much a "nice to have, but not critical" thing.

Thanks! I think my biggest disconnect was my starting point. Do I identify "left" and "right" while I'm on the ship, looking towards the front? Or while I'm facing the ship from the outside, looking directly at the ship? I think I got my answer here (standing on the ship, facing towards the...

@Erica1016 - thanks for being so welcoming and kind - and omg, thank you for explaining the starboard and port sides. I didn't know if it was measured while you were on the ship or if you were facing the ship. It's very nice to meet another adult couple sailing together without littles. Don't...

Apologies in advance if I don't have all the sailing lingo down, as I'm a bit new to this world. Fortunately, I know enough NOT to call the Treasure a "boat"! :tongue: Also, apologies for a long post - I'm very excited about this. Thanks for being gentle, everyone! I'm DisneyWitch (ahem) and I...

We spent 2 days at Kennedy Space Center before cruising on our 7 day Star Wars cruise in February 2019. It was amazing and we had SUCH a great time. We were fresh, so walking all day wasn't an issue (and the cruise thereafter was a nice relaxation). Note that for us (2 adults), it was CHEAPER to...

Holy toledo, that is freakin' adorable!

Thank you so much for responding so quickly - your answers are so helpful! 1. I will begin booking elephants and jugglers for the dang circus caravan that we will need. 2. I may just put all my chargers (we have quite a few because, well, we're nerds) in a zip top bag and let them deal with...

We don't travel much (1-2x/year at most) and carry with us a laptop, tablet, our cell phones and our Kindles because no way am I gonna check those items! As infrequent travelers, we decided that pre-check isn't really worth it for us. So, in October, we're going to slog it through with the...

Oh, please let me introduce myself (DisneyWitch) and my Spousal Equivalent of 13 glorious years (WookiePants). We'd like to join this thread too! In 77 days, 10 hours and 55 minutes, we will be at WDW. Our WDW trip spans from October 20 - November 4, and we're looking forward to Pandora, the...

You can turn your "fail" into a "win"! My travel agent told me that it's an absolute MUST to go through the queue of FOP at least once because it's amazing. The FP line skirts around it and drops you off at the pre-show room. So...with waiting through the line, you'll be able to experience the...

We'll be there from 10/20 - 11/4...we will also be decorating our windows a little bit! Mostly, 2 little lamps (mickey head and halloween pumpkin) so I can pick out my dang room at night when I'm exhausted from the parks! LOL

I am the planner - like some have suggested, I do the "this is what I'm about to commit us to...speak now or forever hold your peace" and if they say nothing, we go with my plans. My philosophy is, if you don't contribute, you can't complain. Personally, it allows me to do the things I want to...

Just gonna add one more option, if that's ok... I have terrible feet, and when I walk a lot, I am in awful pain. Achilles heel in one, Plantar Fasciitis in both, feet flatter than a Kansan prairie, wide as a barn door, broken toes like I’m trying to surpass a record, etc.. Tried dozens of shoes...

It's just me and the SO (Spousal Equivalent) as well - we use them all the time. As screen savers, wallpaper (for computers), to share with others. It's also a nice thing to revisit when you're planning your next vacation!

I can confirm - because I called them - that POFQ will charge $5/package if you have something delivered. If it's something you really need, might be worth the charge.

Oct 20-Nov 3, POFQ. Usually that resort doesn't qualify for FD or any discounts, but i'll be happy if I can get anything!

Another packing cube fan - got mine from ebags years ago and they're awesome. Like others said, they're especially great to just plop them in your resort's drawers and work out of them. Never know who was there before you, and might help for those with little ones who have allergies. I mean, you...

We were at MK on taping day and we were amazed at the crowds. HOWEVER, if you arrive at rope drop and can make it past Main Street, the rest of the park had relatively light crowds because everyone was either watching the parade or stuck in that bottleneck. We got a lot done and resigned...
