We have arranged for deluxe motorcoach to transport us (and hoards of luggage) DIRECTLY to the San Pedro cruise port, on the morning of April 27th. We will NOT need to go back to the airport, merely to board another shuttle to the port. Accordingly, this motorcoach will save us time AND money!
The motorcoach will stop at a Disneyland hotel (to be determined at a later date, based upon our needs, etc). Most of us are either staying ON Disney property, or are a short walking distance away. If you are staying a bit further out, consider using your hotel shuttle to get you (and your luggage) to Disneyland.
Most of us seem to want to get to the cruise terminal early
... in order to get early boarding on the ship. Accordingly, we are
tentatively estimating boarding the motorcoach to begin 7:30AM to 7:45AM, with departure at 8:15AM (from the designated Disneyland hotel). In order to board upwards of 50 guests and their voluminous luggage, we would like to request that those taking the bus be in the designated meeting location (ie: designated hotel lobby), COMPLETE WITH ALL MEMBERS OF YOUR PARTY, AS WELL AS ALL OF YOUR LUGGAGE by 7:30AM. If 50 people show up at 7:45AM or 8:15AM ... we will NOT be able to leave on time.
The deadline for reserving the motorcoach is March 30th. Though we will likely be able to add a few passengers after March 30th (on a *space available* basis), please do not wait until March 30th to make your reservation. Based upon the number of guests who have expressed interest so far, I am estimating a cost of $15 PER PERSON (including children of all ages). You can reserve seats in one of two ways:
1) Send $15 per seat, via personal check to Donna Long, for receipt on or before March 23rd (private message me for a mailing address).
2) Send $16 per seat, via PayPal. PayPal charges fees ... hence, the $16 vs $15 per seat. Send PM to me for my PayPal email address, which IS different than my main email address.
Regardless of payment method, PLEASE INCLUDE:
a) The number of people in your party
b) The name of the MAIN CONTACT person in your party along with Disboard ID
c) Current telephone number for MAIN CONTACT person (indicate day or night time contact)
d) Email address for MAIN CONTACT person
e) The name of EACH person in your party
f) The name of your California hotel (Grand Californian, Paradise Pier, Marriott, etc)
g) A cell phone number (to call on the morning of April 27th, in case of issues with the bus location).
Your seat will NOT be reserved until payment, and the aforementioned requested information has been received (and funds cleared). If you make payment via PayPal eCheck, your payment can take 2 weeks to clear ... so it is best to use PayPal credit, PayPal debit, PayPal cash, or send personal check.
If, after processing all payments, we find there to be excessive funds, we can process a prorated refund to those who pay via PayPal ... upon conclusion of the Inaugural Alaskan cruise.
Thank you,
Steven and Donna Long
