Hello everyone!!! With a couple of school holidays wrapping the weekend we decided to take advantage of a great deal on a VGT (assigned 6130 today too!). It will be me, DW, DD(15) and DD's friend(15). This will be our DCL cruise #11 and our first time on one of the new ships...

I'm familiar with Vueling as I've been researching airfares from Venice to Barcelona... still need to book that leg. As for the train, I'm a train nut so my family is (at the moment) indulging me and my sense of adventure. Ironically we are also planning to take the Eurostar from Paris to...

Hi Carolinagirls! We too are heading to Paris (and London) after the cruise! Also, I see you are from Charleston (my DW went to CofC - class of '82). How are you planning to get to Paris? We are thinking of taking the Elipsos (hotel train) overnight from Barcelona to Paris, or maybe the...

anniedj we booked two rooms for our family of 4 at the Hilton. I know that the Novotel in Barcelona has reasonably priced rooms for 4 but we elected to book at a Hilton because of the special pricing they had in January. We are going to be in Venice for a couple of days prior to the cruise...

Hi there... we live in Raleigh too! Small world isn't it! We have a DS17 and DD13 who attend Broughton HS and Daniels MS. We booked our flights on Skymiles points a few months ago and we booked the Hilton Diagonal Mar (on our own) for the 1 night we will be in Barcelona (found a good deal on...

I got this price right off of the DCL website... still there today (Category OGT - family of 4 - 2 adults/2 children ages 17 & 13 = $5586.64)

Wonderful news!!! VERY exciting to have 4 port calls in Italy...

Yes it's true - GTY oceanview are now like $300 less that my reservation's original price for an inside cat 11B stateroom! Only catch is you have to pay in full when you reserve and no refunds are allowed. I am thinking about it very seriously - why not get an upgrade and pay less??? Also...

On a couple of our earlier cruises we did a disboard meet onboard just after the sailaway party ended - our gathering spot was on deck 10 overlooking the Goofy pool - all of gathered for about 30 minutes to meet and greet each other. Many of us obtained the lime green color disney (mickey...

Thanks for pulling all of this together Allison! I have a minor correction and update: DS will be 17; cat 11B, staying at Hilton Diagonal Mar; late seating We are getting very excited - managed to shift flights around for a short visit to Venice just before we sail, then Paris and London...

For those of you who might be interested here the disboard thread regarding the developing situation in Tunis - our port call on 21-June... http://www.disboards.com/showthread.php?t=2633322

Don't know about the rest of you but I will very disappointed if Disney chose to skip Tunis and opt for just another day at sea. Don't get me wrong - a day at sea can be wonderful on a Disney ship - but I would much rather have an alternate port call... and with that said I would imagine in...

Well it's been a long time since I stopped by to catch up. I've finally booked our flights - looks like we will be splitting time in London and Paris before/after the cruise. Got a great deal on Skymiles tickets to/from Europe on Delta after lots of digging around. I feel like I am behind...

Hi Julie and Lorna! I'm enjoying reading your posts! Thank you for sharing your thoughts and plans. We live in Raleigh, NC - got there by way of Atlanta (where we spent 25 years there). We will most likely be traveling via Delta (I'm in the process of hording my Skymiles right now). I am...

I here to say the big 5-0 isn't so bad - just had mine this past fall. DW is coming up soon too. After all 50 is the new 40 - yes!!! Sounds like we both have DSs who are close in age - and that's good too! I'd love to hear more about your ABD trip - we have not done one yet but have...

Great to have someone else on this ship! We too are just beginning to think through all the logistics and planning and just like you, we'll be looking forward to learning from those traveling this year! Cheers!

Hoping to find a few fellow cruisers who'll be joining in this great cruise! It'll be me, DW, DS (17*) and DD (13*). This will be DCL cruise #11 for us (unless we give in and book a Dream voyage before this sailing) and our first Med cruise... Anyone else??? Let us hear from you!!! *age...

Just like everyone else, we got the Happy Anniversary cake along with a "Happy Anniversary to you...kiss kiss" (to the tune of "Happy Birthday") serenade from our head server and his team in the dining room on the first night. Earlier that same afternoon, in the Vista Spa (much to our...
