    Would you do redeye night before Wonder?

    Mousecrazy, We (DH, DD8, DS6) have done 2 Disney Cruises. We did the Wonder 4-day then one year later the Magic 7-day. The 4-day is so short, I can't imagine needing a day or two for the kids to get used to the lack of sleep. I would never do the red eye before a cruise with the kids (my...

    Hair Braiding Warning!

    My daughter has had her hair braided many times (twice in Jamaica and once on the Disney Cruise) and has never experienced the hair loss or the pain. After it was done she said, "ya, it hurt a little, but not much". She has very fine hair, but I never saw hair loss. I am not sure what the...

    December 1st - Hurricane season???

    We did the December 1st in 2002 and had perfect weather (80 plus). But, for the 2 weeks prior, apparently they had rainy, cloudy cooler weather, we were lucky! So it is really a shot in the dark. You have to have a back-up plan (spa treatments, movies, food... etc.) No matter what, you will have...

    How Last Minute Can You Book A Cruise?

    We were on the November 2002 cancelled cruise (Norwalk Virus) and we found out on Wednesday (I believe) that our Saturday cruise was cancelled. I rebooked the 4-day (leaving on Sunday) on Thursday. So, it was only 3 days before cruise day... no problem! I don't think there are limitations.

    8 year old...club or lab?

    Our children always found the clubs catered to younger children, but they have gone to school since they were 2.5 years old and are used to structure and used to playing/working with older children. But, one of my friends on our last DCL cruise put her older son with her younger child and he had...

    3/4 Night vs 7 Night

    We did the 4 day, then a 7 day the following year. The 7 day is so much more relaxing. Even so, we still didn't do everything we wish we could have. Our children were 5 and 6.5 on the 7 day, and they made friends on the ship. But, when they were on the 4 day, their friendships were not as strong...

    Kids Clubs - Age question

    You might as well wait until you get there. It is up to the Manager, and I am sure they will let you. If you explain the situation, and it makes sense, then they will be okay with it.

    Kids Clubs - Age question

    Yes, they see their Birth Certificates or Passports when you board, and all that information is in the computer... sorry, no cheating allowed! haha

    Kids Clubs - Age question

    My son was 2.5 months away from turning 5 when we cruised in November. There was no problem at all moving him up. Last year when he was almost 4, he was in the 3-4 age group and said everything was very babyish. Even at 3 he would have enjoyed the 5-7 better. Finally this year he was able to do...

    Who loves the Cadillac Lounge?

    Last year on the Wonder we were in there every evening before dinner. We would feed the kids up top, then take them to the club, then go have our drink and alone time. Then we would go to our late seating. This year on the Magic, we had early seating, so didn't really get a chance to go have a...

    Of course! I forgot that the spa is adult-only.

    Sailing on 12/6. Lots of questions!

    They do cut hair, so I bet they would do kid's hair. Yes, your child will be able to swim in one Mickey ear. He will enjoy this. I would ask again and again about changing your dinner time because they will probably feel sorry for you. But, if it doesn't work, don't worry, your server will...

    Live From The 11/29 Magic!!!!!!!!!!

    We returned last week after our November 15th Magic cruise... finally, after last year's cancellation. Hope you have a great time, and too bad I didn't meet you last year. Who are your servers? Ours were Depesh and Rodger. They were fantastic!

    Just got in an hour ago. It was so great to meet everyone. Wish that I would have met you Michelle. I am sure we passed in the halls without even knowing. You guys are so much fun, and it sure added to the pleasure of the cruise to see so many friendly faces every day. Our kids loved all your...

    This is my last post (probably) as we do the final packing. We are leaving the house at 6:00 tomorrow morning. I am so excited and also realize how much last minute stuff there is to pack. Have fun though! Can't wait to meet you all. We will be wearing our badges in the terminal, so I am sure...

    Jo-Anne, right now the Burlington Skyway is closed, so you will have to go another way... unless it opens. I really hope this doesn't affect anyone's flights!!!! Crossing fingers! So, yesterday we get a call from Air Canada, Brian and Meghan's return flight is changed from 11:00 a.m. on...

    any November 15th eastern 7 ngt cruisers out there?

    Gordon, When we were on the Disney Cruise last December, we definately needed photo ID to get on the ship. They do not have a photo of you appear when they scan your card. You need a photo ID (or photocopy of your passport). Too bad Stephen is sick! Yuck! I took the kids to the doctors to...

    any November 15th eastern 7 ngt cruisers out there?

    No, you don't need them. But!!!! Remember to bring other photo ID for the adults. Last year we only had our Passports, and the nice lady at the port had to photocopy it for us. When you get on board, you no longer have your passport (they keep it). You must have photo ID in order to get on and...
