    Passports Required on Disney Wish for Caribbean?

    Someone just told me that you are required to have passports for a Caribbean cruise on the Wish. Is this true?

    American getting a Sim card in Europe?

    We've saved thousands with T-Mobile. Their monthly charge is so much less than Verizon! And that doesn't even include the free international and the free streaming. It was an easy choice for our family! $30 a day for Verizon to travel? Hard pass. And their customer service has really gone...

    American getting a Sim card in Europe?

    T-Mobile for free international text and data! So worth it, especially if you frequently travel internationally.

    Just booked our second Disney cruise...

    If you booked far aft, move your cabin. The vibration issues are notorious. St. Thomas is not my favorite port. I'd get the ferry and go to Trunk Bay on St. John. Do the underwater snorkel trail. On Tortola, do to the Baths.

    Alaska dogsledding excursions: give me all the details

    We booked directly with Temsco out of Skagway. I heard that Skagway gets canceled less than Juneau. We went in mid-August and loved it. So many Alaskan excursions are so expensive - but we thought it was worth it.

    Unfortunately, worst vacation we ever had

    I'm so sorry this was your experience. We cruised on the Magic in early October and the difference between that cruise and pre-Covid Disney cruises - and our overall horrible experience - has definitely pushed us to make the decision not to cruise with Disney again. It's NOT the same product -...

    If you aren't sailing DCL concierge, but are doing concierge elsewhere, which ship and why?

    What service? Years ago we were in a top suite on Celebrity - had a BUTLER - now THAT was service. First dibs at excursions and activities? Oh wow. Disney is SO far behind on what they offer Concierge guests. We did our 2nd Concierge on the Magic in October. Tied for our worst Disney cruise (out...

    Cruising with 3 yr old in October - Canada, Bahamas, or Eastern Caribbean?

    It was Oct 5-10. I think it's usually warmer and we just hit a windy/cooler day.

    If you could change one thing about DCL, what would it be?

    More AND bigger pools Buffet dinner Some NEW shows! More active activities (for teens) Summer cruises out of NYC Lower prices :-)

    What are the post Covid changes you have noticed on the ships?

    Most have been mentioned here. Don't know if this is back or not (we cruised in Oct) but there wasn't a private character meet for Concierge.

    Need Help Picking Fantasy Stateroom - 5190?

    No, no, no! We were 2 doors down in 5688. WORST cruise ever. The vibration AND noise were unbelievable. Even had to take down all the hangars and anything that would rattle. In addition, there was a horrible stink coming from the bathroom that they couldn't find/fix for 2 days. This was a DVC...

    Thoughts on our first (and maybe only) concierge sailing

    I think some of the experiences (like the private character meet) were canceled because of the pandemic. But at least close character interactions were back when we sailed. It is possible that some things were affected by the pandemic. I wouldn't cancel your cruise. Everyone has different...

    Thoughts on our first (and maybe only) concierge sailing

    Thanks for sharing. I agree with some of the things you mentioned. We cruised Concierge Nov 2019 and loved our 1 BR. There were three of us and having the living room, dining area and 2 full bathrooms was great. We loved the first day lunch and the private character meeting and the lounge. We...

    How much should I budget for an Alaska sailing?

    Not sure of the ports but these are the things we did. The flightseeing and helicopter excursions are expensive but so worth it! In Ketchikan we've done seaplanes with Island Wings 3x (twice to - successfully - see bears at Anan Creek ($650) and Traitor's Cove ($425) - and once Misty Fjord...
