Help advice needed RE: Booking Excursion & Palo on DCL Website -timing?

[MrsJobba1]

Hi,

Dont get me wrong Im not a new cruiser - I've done this in the past but some of the excursions that I want to do in the med say ' limited availablity' and I would be really quite upset if I messed up trying to book them!

I know that time is 8:01am for me being in the UK - What I want to know (I Hope this makes sense) Is if I log on to my cruise reservation earlier, can I just use the refresh button when the clock changes to 8:01 or do I have to log on then.

I have the excursions in my wish list, can someone walk me through the quickest way to get to them - so that I can book them asap?

As I have back probelms I can only go on mild excursions - which really limits my choices - I really hope I manage to get the excursions as I dont have any other options really. Any help will be grately appreciated.

Thanks
PS Noone on my cruise is allowed to book them before me !!!

Mrsjobba1, yes, you may log on beforehand, and use refresh. I did this successfully on our last cruise. As soon as the DCL server says it's time, the choices will open up for you. I would have a priority list ready and book in order from your first to your last priority. That way, if something sells out before you get to it, your higher-priority items will already be booked. Also remember that they hold back some Palo reservations for on-board booking, so that is also an alternative.

Good luck and enjoy your cruise!
