5 Moms Bounceback on the Bounceback Offer - The DIS Discussion Forums

mketting · 08-09-2009, 01:37 PM

My sister and I cruised with our families in Feb. and received the $99 Bounceback Offer. It was too expensive to take all of our families (plane tickets, hotel, car, etc.) again so soon but I just hated the thought of letting that great offer go to waste.

Well I was going to be finishing up my Masters Degree in July (3 years of hard work) and decided a cruise with some friends would be a great graduation present. I called my sister to see if she wanted to come and bring a friend in her cabin , and I am taking a great friend I made while in grad school and my sister-in-law who lives in Florida.

We leave Wed. for our MOMS ONLY trip and I just can't wait.

I am going to sit at the Adult pool and visit Serenity Bay for the first time.

We are even trying the late dinner. I feel a tinge guilty going on a Disney cruise with no kids but we are going to enjoy every minute!!!!!!!

Congrats on your masters! Trip sounds heavenly. I'm sure you will be return recharged and be better wives and mothers. Twinge of guilt gone yet?

What is the bounce back program on DCL? We are going on the 4 night Wonder on Sept 6th. Would love to book another cruise before getting off ship. But are the rates at that much of a savings? Thanks, L

This my first post...new to disboards....just trying to figure this all out...

Can you still book these? I thought it was too late. I have my certificate from our March cruise, but didn't book by the date it said. Will they still let you use these?

Us too and it's also an adults only cruise for our anniversary (Shhh! Don't tell DD!) We're looking forward to seeing the front half of the ship this time!

kcashner · 08-09-2009, 11:52 PM

The bounceback was a special deal for people who did 4 or 7 day cruises in a specified window last winter--we can do a 3 day cruise this fall (restricted dates) for $99 per person...each cabin must have one person who cruised on the sailing where you got the certificate.

Another poster mentioned booking another cruise while sailing. This is available on all sailings...Currently you get a 10% discount on the cruise fare portion of the ticket in cat 4-11 and either $100 (3/4 day) or $200 (7 day) onboard credit in cat 4-12. A few med cruises offer 20% + $400 OBC. This is usually the best deal you'll see, and I almost always do a rebooking while I'm sailing!

Just go to the rebooking desk on deck 4!

mketting · 08-10-2009, 03:26 PM

As the other poster said we booked it several months ago.

Tomorrow I have a job interview and then off to the Cruise!! My sister and I then fly to Virginia Beach to meet our families for a week on the beach there!! I just can't wait, may be I'll have a new job waiting for me when I get back, that would be just perfect!

bengals01 · 08-10-2009, 03:58 PM

yes i had one and forgot about it. I found it when I was getting ready for my 6/6 cruise on 5/30. It was with my passport. It was 8:02 and then I tried to book one on line but it was down. I immediately called 5/31 at 8:00 and was told too late no exceptions. Oh well.
