[HappyFam]

Welcome to the Disney Wonder - May 29, 2017 - Alaska Cruise thread!!

 

[Laura1123]

[lpandorf]

The deposit is payed we are officially counting down the days! 402 days just in case you are wondering. This is our second Disney Cruise and first to Alaska. Me , DH, DS 10, DD 8.

 

[RonningFamilyCrusin]

My name is Jesse Ronning and this will be my eighth cruise total, fourth with Disney, and third on the Disney Wonder. This will be my first Alaskan cruise as all other were Caribbean and Bermuda.

My family consist of my DW, DS (15 at time of sailing), DS (11), DD (9) and DD (3). This will be our sixth family cruise with four of them being Disney and half of them on the Wonder.

We do love the Wonder. We were on the Fantasy this past November and felt it was too big. There was a lot of overcrowding and felt service suffered at times. The Aqua Duck was a nice gimmick but it wore out after a few days. The Wonder was our first family cruise and it will always have a special place in my heart.

We booked this cruise the day it was released for Gold/Silver Castaway Members. We were left with adjoining Oceanview. With the daylight hours Alaskan cruises have this might be for the best.

My wife's dream was always to go on an Alaskan cruise. We are from South Dakota so for the boys and I going on a "cold" destination wasn't really our cup of tea but on Disney it will be fine.

I think with it being Memorial Day weekend there is a chance of a PremEar - maybe even Cars 3. We were on the Thanksgiving cruise that PremEared Frozen and it was such a marvelous experience that I would love to participate in such again.

Would love to be a part of a meet and greet and fish extender. We did ornament exchanges, Secret Mickey gift exchanges, various tastings - including a real fun mixology, as a group this past November. I think we had over 200 members in the group discussing everything Disney last year. This will be a good time!

We booked opening day-hoping to start tracking flight prices next month!

 

[calbekah]

[Mineu]

We booked opening day-this will be our third Disney Alaska cruise-can't wait!! By the way, reservations are open at the Pan Pacific hotel located above the port.

 

[Dgmeg15]

Hello Everyone! So excited as this will be our first Disney Cruise! we will be bringing on 2.5 year old daughter and 4 year old son. Anyone else coming with young kids? Would love to meet up!

 

[Samantha Gilbreath]

Welcome Dgmeg! This will be our second Disney cruise, and we will have our 4yo daughter with us! We would love to meet up- I met another family on our last cruise who had a son the same age as my daughter, and I asked my TA to arrange for us to dine together. It was the best decision I made the entire cruise! They became fast friends, and it made it easier for them to go into the kids club as they both had a friend

 

[Dgmeg15]

Awesome Samantha! That sounds great!

 

[NVZolyniak]

Hi all, We are booked.... This is my wife and my 4th Disney Cruise and our kids 3rd. My wife and I brought the Wonder from Florida to San Diego this year through the Panama Canal. That was an amazing cruise.... This will be our first Alaska Cruise. I recommend that cruise to everyone.... Well I'm hope to find a thread about FE lists. Does anyone know if there are any started for our cruise yet? Well we will check back in later, Thanks Michael Zolyniak

 

[TwilightThunder]

We're finally booked on this cruise! This is our family's 3rd cruise, the second with Disney (last time was on the Magic), and our first time going to Alaska. We are very excited. Just three in our little family DH, myself and DD (age 11). We did a FE last year and would love to participate in one again.
