You Port Arrival Time (PAT) will coincide with a boarding number you are given at check-in (they write it on a card unless they changed it recently) and when they actually call that number is what will dictate when you board. So yes you can check in early - port will be open by the time you...

My kids will be DS 22 (and certainly not a kid anymore!), DS 17 and DD 15. My oldest is joining us because he will be graduating college in May so this will be his graduation cruise! Of course whether he joins or not depends a lot on his plans for after graduation. But hoping he can join us...

Hello everyone! Our family of 5 is booked for this cruise - our 7th with Disney - but this one will be our longest and first over 7 days! Forum still quiet I guess as we have lots of time to go, but wondering if there is also a Facebook group that is active? Our Northern Europe cruise in June...

We were able to get some right at 180 days for a trip starting 17-Nov - but we leave before Thanksgiving on Wed. I was able to get 2 reservations, one for Sun 19-Nov and one for Tue 21-Nov. The reason I booked 2 though is I started with Sun which was closer to when our booking window opened and...

Will this be the case for Northern European cruises to Stockholm this summer too? This would be perfect for us as I was definitely leaning to do Stockholm on our own - we will be there for the 11-Jun-2017 sailing this year. I booked Disney port adventure as placeholders for now, but I too read...

Concur that Icelandair or Norwegian Airlines may be your best bet at this point (also try Air Canada as they show up as the lowest right now for us out of Cincinnati), as well as either a last minute fare that comes up on non-sold out flight segments (use a deal tracker app) or alternative lower...

I know some folks are posting about Fish Extender - we did it once and I would recommend it to anyone who has not done it - especially if you have little kids. My kids loved going door to door to deliver their gifts and they were quite excited every time something new was delivered! But I am...

Hello fellow Northern European cruisers! I suppose anyone still here now is pretty serious about this cruise since we are past the PIF date! So as planning gets more real and detailed - curious to know if anyone has booked non-DCL ground or limo service they feel good about? With our family of...

This is exactly what I was looking for - a transfer or limo service I can easily book online like we did for Port Canaveral to Orlando Airport. It was so convenient and a better cost then Disney transfer for us as we also will have 5 people with luggage. Sounds like this company is rated very...

We are probably going on our 4th or 5th year with the Disney Visa card and since we too vacation with Disney at least once a year - it has been a tremendous value for us to just use the Disney Visa. We use it for everything as our primary "debit" card and pay it off every month. We have never...

Welcome! I hope our board posts are starting to pick up now - deposits will be due soon so I guess the cruise is close enough to begin to feel real... :-) I can certainly share what we are doing pre/post and flights. Overall, we are doing what I have heard a lot of people recommend which is to...

That is so great to hear - turns out we will be some of those cruisers at the Tivoli! We actually booked the Tivoli Hotel in Sep after reading similar reviews on Disboards - I was lucky and able to get a great deal on Booking.com for 2 rooms. My kids are older - 21-16-14 - so we need the space...

Well - we are getting more excited ourselves now too - and so is our commitment to this cruise! We just booked our airfare - Kayak alerted us to a $600 per person price drop today and for 5 of us - thats a nice $3000 savings! And its as close to as cheap as I have seen it for us at least - our...

Hello and great to finally see a meet thread for this cruise! I expect more and more to join the thread as we go - it will go by fast - I hope! We booked opening day and are hoping the 2nd time is a charm - we booked this itinerary for Jun 2015 but had to change itineraries due to schedule...

Hi Ravene, I researched this pretty good when I was moving our placeholder on the opening day for summer 2017 cruises and can share what I found out. There was a very good website about travel insurance that listed most of the companies that offer travel insurance and summarized their policies -...

Thanks so much Christene! We are so looking forward to a relaxing time now! Lets just get "Bonnie" out of the way before we get there in the next few days. RewTHEREyet, I don't know how much Disney resort charges for rentals, but this site will give you ballpark prices you need...

We booked this cruise too I believe! Is it the one that departs 11-Jun-2017? We tried to actually do this itinerary in 2015 but had to change to another itinerary due to schedule conflicts. But we did some initial planning if you have questions - feel free to DM me or ask in the meet site when...

We are traveling to Disney's HHI Resort (YAH!) in 10 days and I feel like I am missing something! I guess as avid DCL and WDW travelers we are used to having to plan so much in advance. But we have never been to an off-park property like HHI and I am wondering is there anything I need to reserve...

Hi KDG! Sorry to be a lurker dropping in on someone else's upcoming meet and greet folks - I just booked an opening day 7 Night Northern European for June 2017 and I'm already trying to get some ideas to plan the trip. Since we are only doing a 7 night cruise I am looking for ideas on how to...

Assuming the project remains on schedule - and that's always a big assumption! - you will be fine. According to the timeline map, they are way north past the Disney beach house area in July. They move South to North and looks like they are in front of the beach house area Mid-May to early June...
