December 22, 2013 - Disney Dream 4 Night Bahamian Cruise

[xangav]

​

I'll reach out to the handful that haven't given a cabin number to me yet and get that updated this week.

Just as a reminder, we'll cut off the FE on October 7th (since that is the last day to pay for the cruise), this should give everyone time to make the right amount of gifts.

I've found that if you end up with extra FE gifts to give out it's always nice to hand them out to your table mates or any new friends you might meet while on board.

Thanks. That's a great idea for the extra gifts. Is splitting the gift list still a probability?

 

[KathyinDE]

So far so good, I've got enough for 30 cabins for our FE. I am so looking forward to this cruise. Has anyone taken the holiday cruise before? I can't wait to see all the Christmas decorations...... I've even got my little tree ready to go

 

[Grooovertoo]

Groovertoo to which MVMCP are you attending? We are doing the 20th staying at POly or Contemporary!

We are doing the 19th, we figured the 20th would be just too crowded. Staying at AoA. Are you phychic or did I say we were going to it earlier?

Thanks. That's a great idea for the extra gifts. Is splitting the gift list still a probability?

We'll put it up to a vote come October and see what everyone wants to do. Around 30 tends to be the number where it can either make or break the exchange. If anyone has any thoughts to this, please interject.

 

[Eeyores#1Fan]

As of today the FE list is at 29 cabins. We still need cabin number's for the four listed below.

You can PM me or list your room# here. I'll reach out on Facebook as well and I'll try to PM you by the end of the week if I do not hear anything.

If the room is GTY, that's not a problem, just let us know and we can get the cabin number from you at a later date.

Thanks!

We've never been OVER Christmas however have been the last few years the week before or two weeks before and the decorations are BEAUTIFUL!!!! I can't wait to be on the boat ON Christmas! We are going to take family pictures in front of one of the trees

 

[slc]

The Dream sure looked nice this morning - outclassing the other two ships by far!

29 TOTAL CABINS

We have not yet gotten a cabin number, but we are Guaranteed status... We will post as soon as we get it... Hoping for an upgrade... Ha ha ha.

 

[KathyinDE]

Well I hate to say this but we have had to cancel this cruise. I know you will all have an excellent time and maybe we'll be able to go another time.

 

[MamaPoppins]

We'll put it up to a vote come October and see what everyone wants to do. Around 30 tends to be the number where it can either make or break the exchange. If anyone has any thoughts to this, please interject.[/QUOTE]

Hey, I am a giver and the doer of the FE for myself and Eeyores#1Fan and Tinkilly so I will say reguardless of it splitting up we will do the full group but with the understanding that if it is split into 2 groups we will only get gifts from the group we are in.


I have been working hard on our FE and DSis (E#1Fan) has brought ideas to the table. Will see Tinkilly soon and see what she wants to do.

Super Excited at this point!

 

[MamaPoppins]

Whoot. Whoot!

Okay, Santa Hat door Magnet, done. Repurposed christmas stocking FE, done. Pirate Outfits, done. Formal outfits bought.

Can you tell we are so looking forward to this cruise?! We have never gone all out but the planning is half the fun.

OMG i am so glad I reread old post bc I had not done a Santa hat for my door...gotta do that! Thanks

 

[Grooovertoo]

Perfect, we'll put you down as GTY. You should know your cabin by October, no worries.

Bummer, thanks for letting us know. Happy sailings.

We're gold and my online reservation says I can't do anything until 10/8.

Do you think it's because I booked through Costco? My PIF date is 9/24. If I paid it earlier would my check-in change? Probably all questions I should be asking the travel agent.

I wouldn't be surprised if they are all, already booked by the Platinum/Concierge folks, but I've heard you can always ask at the port because some may have opened up due to cancelations though.

Since you are a Castaway Club member I would call the dedicated line at 800-449-3380, have your CC member #, your resi #, and they should be able to put two and two together. Also, check online under the Castaway Club log-in and see what it shows under your member # and if your resi is listed there or not. It should be just a matter of connecting the dots. Let us know how it goes.

 

[Sophiemouse]
