When was your FIRST time? Cruise that is! Ship name & date & itinerary!

First week of December 2003 on the Disney Wonder. 4 night cruise. I know we stopped at Nassau but we didn't get off ship. (DS was 5 mos and I was nervous about getting off ship with a baby).

We did get off at castaway cay. Leaving for our 2nd cruise in 38 days on the Fantasy, 7 nights this time!!
 
Our 1st cruise was December 2003 with Carnival.

Our 1st DCL cruise was the Wonder Hurricane Frances cruise in September 2004. It was supposed to be a 3 day but turned into 4. We missed the scheduled ports and ended up visiting Cozumel and disembarking in Port Everglades. I was pregnant with my youngest at the time. He gets upset that the cruise doesn't count towards his Castaway Club status!
 


Disney Magic - July 30, 1999!! The Wonder had just crossed the Atlantic and we escorted her into Port Canaveral!
 
Disney Wonder November 2003 3 Day Cruise we were able to do because Disney enacted the 'Fairytale' package for WDW-stay 7 days for the price of 4! We took the savings and booked a 3 Day cruise.

My boys were 8, 7 and 5 and now they are 17, 16 and 14 and we are going on our last Disney Cruise in April on the Fantasy. Very sad! But no clubs for 18 and above and College expenses help to draw a close on our sailing days.

The boys have made it clear that without the clubs, they aren't interested in sailing.
 
Our first cruise was a 5 night Bahamas with dd at Castaway on the Dream January 3-8 2012! We loved it!! I am planning to book on the Fantasy for June 2014. Being a single mom I can't do big vacations like that often so we definitely enjoy every bit of it when we can!! My little one and I are hooked on Disney, I'm hoping to eventually try out all 4 boats. Although after we do the Fantasy I was wanting to do Alaska, so hopefully Disney goes back to Alaska!!!
 


May 1 - May 5,2000
Disney Magic.

Oldest DD (6 then) wouldn't leave the clubs and was so excited when she heard they would be starting 7 day cruises! But it took 5 years to go back (Wonder) and 6 years to go on a 7 day.
 
November 14, 2009! It was a 7 night western on the Magic with a double dip to Castaway. Loved every second.

We should be platinum in 2013/14.
 
My first cruise was on the carnival imagination in October 2009. It was a three night to the Bahamas.

Disney Wonder 10-10-10 was my second cruise. 4 night to Bahamas and CC.
 
First time: Disney Wonder 4 night cruise Spring Break 2002.

Since then several 7 nights: Caribbean and Mexico , 12 night ,Baltic and Med cruise on the Magic.
Planned for Alaska in 2013 although our boys (college) still enjoy cruising we may cancel due to college.tuition. :sad1:
 
This will be our first cruise ever!! For our Honeymoon!! We will be getting married in Disney and taking off on the Fantasy for a 7 night on 1/26 to St Thomas and San Juan!! We are so ready for a vacation!
 
April 2012, Disney Wonder, 7 night Mexican Riviera cruise to Cabo twice and Puerto Vallarta once. Fantastic trip! I'm hooked! :)
 
My first cruise was with RCCL, a 7 night Western Mediterranean Cruise in July 2008. Ports were Barcelona, Villefranche (Nice), La Spezia (Florence), Civitavecchia (Rome), Naples (Capri) and Palermo (Sicily).

Since then I was hooked and tried to convince my husband that we should do it as a family.

Our first family cruise was on the Dream during its Inagural year, March 2010.
We got it as a perk of our DVC purchase.

Our second one is a 5 night Western Caribbean trip scheduled for Nov 2013 on the Magic.
 
Our first and second cruise were a DCL cruise on the Wonder. We bought it as part of a bounceback offer. We booked a 4 day and got a 3 day for $99.00 a person. The first time was in March 19-22, 2009.

We also had some once in a life time things happen that cruise like a private meeting with all the characters at Studio Sea. I have the links to the videos in my signature. We were hooked from the first time.
 
Disney Wonder to the Mexican Riviera February of last year. It was spectacular and we're all hooked now.
 
Started off with 4 days at WDW Resort starting on New Year's Eve 2010, saw fireworks and rang in the New Year. Left WDW and jumped on the Magic for 5 fantastic days on the Magic. Went to Bahamas and Castaway Cay twice.
