    DCL Onboard Restricted Items Policy Updates: Decorations, Ducks and Ashes and More

    It was probably fun and cute for awhile but like many things Disney related some folks just go overboard and ruin it. We saw that years ago when DCL used to allow you to drop off a few items with guest services to be autographed by the characters. It was fine when it was a canvas or a pillow...

    ABD China

    We did the China ABD in 2019. It was a fantastic trip. I couldn't imagine trying to cover all of the ground we covered by myself. The guides were awesome. Loved every minute of it.

    South Africa ABD and Robben Island???

    Flights are expensive especially if you are trying to avoid multiple connections. I decided that fewer connections and a shorter travel time was priority. I found a price I was comfortable paying on United. I could've booked something less expensive with 2 or more connections and 2+ days of...

    South Africa ABD and Robben Island???

    In September, we are doing an Adult Exclusive South Africa ABD to celebrate my middle daughter's graduation from college. Very excited. (2 down,1 to go) We are arriving almost two days early and want to tour Robben Island. Do we need to book the ferry and tour tickets in advance or can we...

    Where to stay in Rome?

    I'm staying at the Pantheon Iconic Rome Hotel for 2 nights before a transatlantic cruise in October. It's part of Marriott's autograph collection, it's centrally located and I could use our Marriott points to book my room. I believe they offer some junior suites and family suites that might...

    New Disney cruise ship to set sail from Singapore from 2025

    Considering the price point of DCL cruises, I just can't see them being successful in the Asian market without a casino. Maybe if they stick to only shorter itineraries (3/4 night), it may work but longer itineraries, IMO, will not do well when there are so many other choices with other mass...

    Hotel in Barcelona

    Casa Camper is my favorite hotel in Barcelona too. Great location and an amazing staff.

    Med May Cruise

    I like to use both Google flights and/or Kayak to search for flights and set up alerts. I also book directly through the airline and not a third party booking engine because it may be the lowest price and great if everything goes well but if there are issues dealing with the third party group...

    Flying to Barcelona from the US

    Don't rule out your local airport. We just recently moved from the Chicago area to NC and were truly spoiled with variety of International flights out ORD for the past 20 yrs we lived in the area. We are doing another Med cruise in April and I found flights to Barcelona out of our local...

    Private transportation in Barcelona

    Check with your hotel. I'm flying into Barcelona in September for a west bound transatlantic cruise. I contacted my hotel and they have booked private transfers for me from the airport to the hotel and from the hotel to the cruise ship pier.

    Med Cruise - Barcelona extra day, but hotel check in late? And transfers?

    So true. We always book a private day tour. Last time we did a half day Montserrat tour. We used Barcelona Day tours and they were fantastic. Our tour guide was great. I was impressed with how he kept 3 tired teenagers engaged. They picked us up at the airport the morning we landed, took...

    I clicked the email link at exactly 11:00. 790 before me. I was in and done by 11:15. So not too bad.

    2023 dates posted

    The 2013 EBTA on the Magic sailed from Galveston, so I don’t see any reason it couldn’t sail from NOLA to Barcelona. It was 14 nights and our ports were CC, Madeira, Gibraltar and Barcelona.

    Why do you not book your air through ABD?

    In my case, I ended up booking our own air for our China ABD because the prices ABD quoted me for Business Class were way higher than I found for myself. I even gave them the exact flight info I was looking at but they said they couldn't find those flights. So I booked directly with Finnair...

    I love the train. As kids in the 70's that how we would travel from Montana to visit relatives in the midwest and south. A few years ago, I took my 2 youngest girls on Amtrak from Milwaukee to Seattle on the Empire Builder. It was a fantastic trip that with gorgeous scenery. We booked a...
