Fair enough FirstTimeCruiser, If she is so insanely busy that she has to tell me to patient while she helps others first... I don't think she is that dependant on word of mouth from a small thread on Disboards. This is the automatically generated message you referred to:
"Today is the first day of the Summer 2016
Disney Cruise Line release. Please be patient as I try my best to get everyone exactly what they want. I will be booking cruises all morning and then sending out quotes as soon as everyone is booked. My responses may be delayed the rest of this week."
So, to be fair, I did get a one line followup email the following day with single prices for two cruises. It had no confirmation of what Catagory and no details about the on board credits, just short and curt. When I ask follow ups I got a quick response with tone and attitude, and still not enough information. I was happy to be patient, but not 'the rest of the week', lol, nor did I have the patience for a game of cat and mouse to get questions answered. I just went online myself. It's good you've had a good experience with her, clearly you've built a relationship which has benefited you. It was not what I experienced and since DU
travel agency is mentioned in this post multiple times as being so great, I felt it was appropriate to say what I did, which was far from 'blasting'. My goal was to imply that with regards to DU ... maybe it depends on who you get, and then ask for referrals to a specific person. That's the way it works in the travel industry.
