Hi! I'm also a mommy to 5, and we've used SWA many times because of the $99 coast to coast deal they have. We've always pre-boarded, also. But last Nov, after being first in line at the pre-boarding gate, the attendant wouldn't let all 7 of us board at the same time. Only a parent and kids...

We (8 of us) all dropped off our luggages and checked in. Then, my DH and I returned the van to Budget. We rode the shuttle back and met up with the rest of the family in the terminal. Didn't have to wait long for the shuttle at all. Would've arrived at the DCL terminal earlier, but the...

...who have you used as your TA? I used DU with our last Disney cruise (very happy with them), but we may try another cruise line (gasp!) next time. Thanks!

Thunderrd - Yes, I used an 8x10 mat for a 5x7 picture.

Another option is to use a frame mat. I brought a 5x7 mat for my 8x10 frame to Guest Services in a zip-lock bag with my room number on it. I picked it up on our last night with no problem. It was beautifully signed by Mickey, Minnie, Donald, Daisy, Chip 'n Dale and Goofy. My kids' Castaway...

MKetting - Just curious, was airfare included in your quotes?

I used 2 door stoppers (triangular ones), and they worked well for us. Don't forget...there are 2 doors :)

Another option is buy an 8x10 with a 5x7 mat. You can tape the picture on the back of the mat (no cutting) the way you like it. It'll take out a little unnecessary background too. It worked for us. I bought the frame at Target.

I'd love to show my door signs here, but don't know how. Pls help. Thanks

I just bought an 8x10 frame with a 5x7 mat from Target. I didn't even have to cut the picture. I taped the picture on the back of the mat and arranged it to how I wanted it to look on the frame.

Wow! I just checked the DCL policy. It's a totally different policy now from when I booked our Nov '04 Wonder cruise back in Mar '04. I didn't know that the policy could change that fast. So, to answer your question, my sister's cruise fare remained the same because it was before the DCL...

Thank goodnes we had insurance (through DCL). My MIL got sick the day before our 30-day cut-off and notified my TA at DreamsUnl. She didn't cruise with us and my sister took her place. My sister's cruise fare stayed the same as the original cruise rate. She didn't even pay for any name...

Just got back from the Wonder last week, and we opted to rent (one-way from Budget) a 12 pass van daily since it was cheaper for us. Budget had the cheapest rates then. We arrived at MCO Fri night, drove to Ron Jon's and stayed for 2 nights. We kept the van during our stay there and returned it...

Hi Tina, You have such a beautiful family! Too bad we didn't get to meet. I was hoping to catch a glimpse of you and your wedding party on CC. But unfortunately, it took us awhile to get off the ship. Thanks for the magnet. That was a pleasant surprise! I'm wondering who ended up...

I wish everyone a safe trip to Florida. I don't leave (from CA) until Fri morning. I'm in nowhere close to finish packing. My packing list is made out, I bought all the stuff we need from the stores, and the clothes are all washed. They just need to all find their way into the luggages...

Hi! What's the size of the safe in the staterooms? Is it big enough for a laptop? Thanks!

Hi! I'm reading my travel docs, and it says there that I can't bring a cooler with personal items (eg sodas or snacks). It also says that I can't pack any beverage containers in my checked luggage. How do people manage to bring their own bottled water, wine, favorite snacks, etc? I can't...

Hi Mom of 5 K's, Thanks for this post. I was also wondering the same thing. My 5 kids range from 2 - 17 yrs, and I really don't want to pack too many clothes if I don't have to, mainly dressy clothes. I'm trying to limit our baggages.

Hi All! So sorry I haven't posted for so long. I feel so 'out of the loop'. :( We got our docs (yay!), but still waiting for my sister's. She's taking the place of my MIL (who decided not to come due to medical problems). We did all these changes the day before the 30 day mark, and...
