I think the chance will be very slim. Unless you are willing to do a TA cruise. I do not think the Magic will go to Greece to much unrest there right now.

True, there is unrest right now, but Disney will not be going to Greece until summer 2013. That is a long ways away, and anything can happen between now and then. Plus, as the other poster stated, ABD has trips booked, so I think it is a good inticator. That, and the surveys DCL sent out. I think with those factors, it is a strong possibility.

Also just to point out again that Greece is in political unrest. This is a lot different to other countries! The country is angry with its politicians and tourism is the only thing keeping the country together. It's not like people are attacking tourists! No cruise lines have cancelled cruises to Greece because of the fact they are protesting against their government! It is as safe a country as any other and I think perhaps the American press have gone way too harsh on this one - having not seen it I don't know.
I really hope that DCL does not wait until April 2012 (from rumor) to release 2013 dates & prices....does give much time for families to book/plan or pay for cruises.
My plan was to book 2 cruises with DCL for 2013 but DCL has taken so long I booked with RC for 1 of them because of pricing. I'm sure I will have a good time on RC (first time) but I was looking forward to going on the Magic & Fantasy for 2013....
( inside tip ) I booked RC (Dec 2012) because I still do want Disney but for the great price I got for RC......I don't know. Hoping the pricing crazy for the Fantasy!
I hope DCL hurries up!
Do you think that Disney will extend its contract out in LA or will they move the Wonder someplace else?

I wouldn't call it unrest. Its just people going out on strike. It happens all the time in Greece,France Spain and Italy and is very common and has been going on for years. Usually around bank holiday time. Air traffic controller, transport staff and farmers (in France) take industrial action. It usually happens when the Governments change a law and upset the workers. There's a large public workers strike planned here in the UK towards the end of Nov, if it goes ahead. This is because the Government are changing the rules for Public Sector Pensions. But its not unrest.
Unrest is like in Lybia or Egypt, when there are tanks on the streets etc.

Where did you see that rumor?
If the rumor about waiting till April for dates and prices is really true, now I am really depressedI really hope that DCL does not wait until April 2012 (from rumor) to release 2013 dates & prices....does give much time for families to book/plan or pay for cruises.

We cruised the Greek isles departing from Venice, this past May. We cruised on NCL and it was fantastic! We both thought the only thing that could make the cruise better would be a Disney ship!
