Hello Everyone, My husband and I are from Australia and also DVC members joined in 2012 on the wonder, we just booked this cruise today as it's a birthday present to me. Look forward to meeting you all.
As this is my first post on this board it wouldn't let PM my facebook email address to join the facebook group, is their another option to join. Thanks Michele

Welcome!!!

Now for post two: because you're in Australia- how is the future? Are we driving jet packs now? (Sorry by one Australia joke. No wait I have another and it's not a joke, it's a factoid that I thought was false and becomes a joke if you're ever screening people for certain diseases.... Okay what disease can koalas pass onto humans? (Aside from rabies) Chlamydia. Not joking, google it. Then use it to showcase your awesome facts.)

Does anyone have any idea when Southwest Airlines begins taking bookings past the date of June 30th? I want to try to book as soon as they open the September dates and I'm just not a patient person.

I'm waiting for Southwest to open too. I figure if they're doing June now, September should open in April.

Does anyone plan on doing zip-lining excursion on the cruise? Our 20 yr old daughter wants to go zip-lining and I have a bad back (3 surgeries) and my husband is afraid of heights...and our 21 yr old son...doesn't think he wants to go, but that could change.

I was looking at it and debating. I am afraid of heights, but force myself to challenge it...

I'm hoping its before April . I've been parasailing several times and I would love to zip line. Does the ship offer this excursion or is it local only? I would like to swim with dolphins at some point. Anyone else interested?

They add daily. If they're booking through June 30th now, you have about 2.5 more months. I'm waiting on them as well. American will cost is about $1400., so I'm waiting on SW for comparison. If rather not use air miles if possible. It won't be long.

Welcome newbies!
