    Prices going down

    Maybe port fees went down or they reduced the rate for the 3rd and 4th passenger?

    Royal Caribbean v. Disney

    I would assume people traveling with their kids would be behave better. It's hard enough taking care of young children when your sober. Most people don't behave badly when they are drinking they are just having fun.

    Yikes! Huge price jump in 2018!!

    I know this will irritate certain people on this board, but I really watch the prices and discounts.The last couple of years they have offered a lot of discounts in a May.Yes, I noticed the lower 2018 May prices. The same goes for the New york cruises next year. They are actually lower then...

    Royal Caribbean v. Disney

    I was confused by the single couple comment??? I have a coworker who has been on over 50 cruises and Oasis is his favorite ship. You'll find wasted people on any ship. I've seen my share on the Dream and Fantasy. Other peoples drinking habits would not be a factor in which cruise I chose. That...

    ** OPENING DAY PRICING 2018 Part 1 January-April/May: Magic, Wonder, Dream, Fantasy **

    The Vista is designed so much better then the Fantasy I've lost all desire to sail on the Fantasy again. I do like DCL's smaller ships. I wish cruiselines would build some ships this size instead of the megaships. It would be nice to sail on a brand new medium sized ship once in a while.

    On the Ship what's free and what costs money?

    I didnt know Disney cruises were free.

    Is Disney cruise best if kids don't care about characters?

    My kids have never been into Disney characters. Thank God because I would never stand in line for that. They have always enjoyed the kids clubs on DCL. They enjoyed the Carnival Vista but were bummed about the limited teen club hour, but preferred the ship over the Disney ship. All ships have...

    I was just looking at your signature. You have a very impressive cruising history. I'm guessing you really like cruising. I'm like you with the Caribbean I'll go if I get a good price like I did on the Vista, but not going to break the bank to go.

    Yikes! Huge price jump in 2018!!

    Its funny because they are offering interline rates out of Galveston in dec. I called to get a price just for fun and it was the same as the GT rate I booked the same week last year, and almost as much as my Carnival Vista cruise the end of May so even the industry rates are getting high. I am...

    Yikes! Huge price jump in 2018!!

    The three times we sailed on the Fantasy we got VGT rates that put the cruise at about 3,500 in the Fall and closer to 4,500 in the Spring for the four of us. That was in 2014. We sailed three times on her that year because I thought those were good rates. The GT rates I saw this Fall were...

    My dh just started a new position, and I think he's going to lose a lot of the flexibility we have enjoyed over the last few years. The interline rates on DCL are still quite a bit higher then booking full price on most other cruise lines, and there are very few DCL itinerary's that interest me...

    We chose the dark side - Carnival VS Disney

    Ha Ha. I remember those threads. If people came to this thread that had cruised Carnival and gave some detailed, valid reasons(other then I don't like the look of the ads) why they don't like Carnival then that's fine. It's the people that pop up here to say something negative with very little...

    Yikes! Huge price jump in 2018!!

    Galveston is always a cheaper option regardless if you book in advance or wait for a discount. That's why I brought it up, and I'm glad it helped you. I Hope you get to do your cruise. DCL only has transportation out of IAH I believe. If your flying into Hobby there are some cruise shuttles that...

    Yikes! Huge price jump in 2018!!

    I really don't see that much complaining going on. I see people discussing prices and sometimes other options. A lot of people have left these boards over the years. I would assume the people that are still posting plan to continue cruising DCL. I haven't really seen anyone posting their...

    We chose the dark side - Carnival VS Disney

    The reason they do that is because a lot of people on these boards are looking at other options and want reviews from DCL cruisers. DCL doesn't sail to places they want to go or they've just been out priced.. I for one appreciate the comparisons. If you don't like threads like this then don't...

    We chose the dark side - Carnival VS Disney

    There hadn't been a post on here in 11 days so you pulled it up just to make a snarky comment, and then you wonder why there is a backlash? I don't think my post was directed at you. I'm very aware of your cruising history which In my opinion is not that extensive. The people that it was...

    There's a bunch out right now. You really have to flexible to take advantage of those. They normally aren't released until 1 or 2 months before the cruise. The New York sailing surprised me, but DCL priced those so high. They actually lowered the prices in 2017. If we hadn't been on the Vista...

    15 % discount on future 2017 DCL cruise

    If we would have been on this ship it would have been a very costly extra night on the ship. I know a lot of people look at is being great you got an extra night on board for free, but everyone's life and work situation is different. I can see where the costs could really add up, and some...
