September 8, 2014 - Disney Wonder

[COASTIEandMATE]

I just read on another thread that 4 day cruises do not have a formal night, instead they have a "Dress up Optional Night" so you may dress as you wish! That will make my suitcase lighter!!! Aloha, Karen

I am curious if anyone knows of we need to bring a carseat along for the cab ride from the airport to the hotel. We are flying in late sunday, and got a hotel in wlaking distance to the port.

Hi there! New to the forum, sailing with DH and DD (6). First time cruisers too
Just a quick question: Having completed online check in today, I wondered if there is any way of finding out what your dining rotation is before boarding? I want to book Palo for 1 evening, but dont want to book when we are assigned to Animators palate. Any help, recommendations would be most appreciated

Also, we are trying to organize a group Brunch at Palo on a sea day. If anyone 18y and older would like to join in, please respond with names and stateroom number.

Thanks everyone!

DH, DS(10) and I are happy to be going on our 2nd Disney Cruise.

Actually DS doesn't know about it yet. We are telling him on his birthday on the 23rd. I'm bursting with the secret.

Anyone new with facebook, make sure you email me and I will send you an invite to our group. Much easier to chat on there about stuff. I have a FE organized too and so far we are on group 3. Each group is no more than 15 cabins so that the gifts don't get out of hand when it comes to luggage LOL. I am also organizing a shuttle to go from the ship pier in San Diego to Disneyland. So far the price is around $25/person, but the more people we have on the bus, the cheaper it gets.

Welcome! Disney cruises are so much fun, I'm sure you will have a great time. This is our first cruise with our baby, whose first birthday we're celebrating on the cruise. I was also thinking about the car seat issue and haven't found any answers. I was however toying with the idea of taking their Skytrain. I don't think a car seat would be needed for that. If I find out anything about car seats, I'll let you know.

Thanks so much for sharing on here! I'll definitely be sending you a message. BTW, what's the cost of the mixology class?

Hi, Cupcaker. I'm not sure if you found the Facebook group yet, but if you are interested, here is a link to the page:

https://www.facebook.com/groups/disneywonder2014/

There was a carseat discussion there back in June. I don't have firsthand knowledge, but they linked to this info:
http://bc.cb.rcmp-grc.gc.ca/ViewPage.action?siteNodeId=87&languageId=1&contentId=5270
and also provided info that public transportation, including taxis are exempt from the child seat requirements.

Hope this helped!

Thank you for sharing. I don't have Facebook, so this is helpful!

Mixology is $15 per person. I received a call and email from the groups dept at DCL yesterday. The class will be be requested on a sea day, so Sept 10 or 11 at 2pm. The price of $15pp will be charged to each stateroom who registers, whether you attend the class or not. It is a little money for a lot of fun. I hope you consider joining us!

Looking forward to doing this cruise. Just joined the facebook group.

For those of you going to disneyland after the cruise, Disneyland will be decked in its Halloween glory starting September 12. FYI it might be a little crowded on the 12 as that day is also Dapper Day.

Counting down the days till the cruise!

 

[Stefndoug]

I am organizing a shuttle to Disneyland for about 9:30 on September 12 from the ship. Price is $46/person and that includes a big bus (with washroom) and it is only for our group. Let me know ASAP if you want to join the group. Payment has to be sent in soon. Price is the same as a regular shuttle (shared service) and about the same for Amtrak.
