May I ask how early you dropped off the luggage? We have to return our rental car and we would like to drop off luggage first! Thank you!
I have a couple of questions if someone on the inaugral has time to answer.
1. What was your port arrival time & what time did you actually board? (Assuming non-concierge/Platinum)
2. Is there plenty of seating in the terminal while you wait to board?
3. What were the lines like for check in?
4. Did they have "If I were not upon the sea" any night? I didn't see it on the Navigator?
Thanks for sharing
Our Port arrival time was 11:30 - 12:00 noon. We arrived at 12:00 noon and got right on board. Were eating by 12:15 pm. We were lucky that we were able to get right into our staterooms to drop off our carry-ons.
We didn't need to sit in the terminal because we got right on. There was seating and it was not filled when we were there. Most people were milling around, organizing people/luggage, etc.
They did NOT have "if I were not upon the sea"....which was very disappointing to me. If they did, I didn't see it in the Navigator anywhere.

We scheduled all of the excursions on our own without using Disney. In Cozumel we went to Chankanaab and also went to tour a very small chocolate factory that we found on Trip Advisor.When you say very small...does that mean they didn't use automated assembly line machines to make the chocolate?
It will be interesting to see embarkation info from the 9/29 sailing when they return. The Sept 22 sailing came in with an empty ship (no passengers), so it would be assumed staterooms were already completed and ready for new passengers.
Do you remember who the club host and staff were? and the Bingo caller.

Yes, we were able to go straight to our staterooms when we boarded the 9/22 sailing. Talk about FABULOUS!!!!
Can anyone tell me of there was pin trading on board the ship?

Simon was the Asst. Cruise Director/Club Host. I know two of his additional staff were Brittany & Andy b/c we've sailed w/ them before, but as for others, I honestly don't remember their names or where they're from. I never went to Bingo, but walked by Rockin' Bar D once when it was going on and it seemed that Andy was calling that particular game.
HTHs!
Club host was Simon, with Frankie as a sidekick. Bingo caller was Lee when we went, but i think Andy was doing the afternoon one. Simon was fun to watch and always full of a ton o energy. There was also a Sheree.
We had Simon on the Dream in June and he was amazing, so I hope he is still there when we go on the Magic in December.
A hint!! There is was a cast member walking the decks on sea days handing out pins to anyone with a Disney hat on!!! I saw lots of people get them throughout the cruise.
