We had 6511 when my husband & I went on our own. And it was set up with the sitting area directly in front of you as you entered. The bath was to your left (facing the sofa from the door) and the bed was to your right. We were very pleased with the set up. And since we have 6 going with us...

You can put in a request now to be put on the waitlist for earlier dining, and also go the day of embarkation and request a change. They have done it for us for more people than you have. If it's available they will do it. That being said, we have always had late seating - we enjoyed the more...

Usually once we have it arranged with our TA the birthday is a done deal. Your waitstaff, Head server and a few extras usually bring over a cake and sing and make a big fuss. If you want a special type of cake or a specific night that is not the birthday night, let your head server know and...

We also really liked the sideways configuration of Cat 11. We had 6511 last January and felt it made us feel like we had more moving around space with the door opening into the middle of the room. We have booked one again for our next cruise with a Cat 8 across the hall (since the kids will be...

Thanks for the great trip report! It not only helps with those post-cruise blues :sad2: but helps with the pre-cruise suspense :bounce: ! It was great to hear about one of our favorite CMs - John from Scotland. He has taken such good care of us on 4 different occasions. Even when he wasn't...

Never say never. From what I've read there is no rhyme or reason to upgrades. It can happen to anyone! Here's hoping for some Disney Magic for you! :wizard: And we're in NJ too! (southern) so maybe that is a lucky sign! But if not, we've always found the Cat 4s to be very roomy for 5 of...

We were upgraded from a 4 to a 3 on our cruise Sept '04. It was done after our docs were delivered to our TA so they had to be manually adjusted and no they did not ask - our TA was called and informed. I remember the day well - we all kept dancing around the house singing "we got a swe-eet...

We have always put in a request for a server's station with our TA when we book. However, upon boarding we always check to see if it has been arranged wherever they are doing all the reservations, changing seating times etc. If we are not already in that server's section, they have always...

chanson1973: I have sent you a pm with further information. ::MinnieMo

Tink: We have sent letters to both of these addresses and have received replies from each. So the information gets to where it needs to some way or another. Disney Cruise Vacations Guest Communications PO Box 10238 Lake Buena Vista, FL 32830-0238 Disney Cruise Line 210 Celebration...

More thumbs up votes for Toto, Anne Marie at Palo from S. Africa, Adrien form England and Head Server John from Scotland. We've had some of these guys over and over and would request them all in a heartbeat. And I keep seeing their names in other people's posts too. So I guess that means that...

The dress at the church service has run the entire scale that you see on the ship. There are people dressed for "church" and there are people in shorts and a tee. I don't think a bit of attention will be paid to you in regard to what you are wearing. It is expected that you will be going from...

My kids have very sensitive skin - I have to cut the tags out of everything. So they didn't "object" to the bracelets but they were irritated by them. We found that trimming the ends into rounded corners and putting a little baby powder under the bracelet really stopped any problems they had...

Thank you so much for sharing your familiy's story. It certainly makes us all keep our lives in perspective. I also hope that this makes it back to the crew on the Magic so they can see what an impact their attitudes every second of the day can have and how they can create such special times...

Que was our favorite when we were on in January with Doug a close second. He totally cracked us up when during one of the last evenings he declared he had changed his name to "Dazzler" and would not answer to anything else for the remainder of the cruise! :rotfl: They all do a great job of...

I can not confirm any of this information, I jut happened to see t under the "events at sea" from the Cruisejunkie website. "From a passenger: Two passnegers jumped from the Carnival Destiny on Thursday May 12th between 8:30 PM and 4 AM while the ship was going from Barbados to Aruba. The...

Buddy Bear, We have actually made our initial requests through our TA. However, I believe we have had to have our assignments switched several times after we've boarded. We just head to Rockin' Bar D and check who our head server is, and if it's not John they have been able to switch it for...

John was onboard in January for our last trip and will be going on vacation sometime in June. :sunny: So if he signs back on - which seems likely since he's been there nearly 7 years now - he should be there for your Thanksgiving cruise. He's one of those CMs we have kept in close touch with...

I was looking at your pictures (great by the way) and the server looked familiar, though I can't see his full face. Do you remember his name? Thanks!

That's why one cruise is not enough and we never get bored. We find it impossible to get everything done we want to and also relax a little. So we're just forced to book again! :cheer2:
