09/13/09 SSMC09 S.S. Member Cruise 2009 - Part 4!

[WDWLVR]

I'm up for a reunion cruise and like Mark I'd prefer Eastern vs. Western if we were to do a 7 day.

However with the inital sailing on April 7th if we want an April 2012 7 day that means we'd have to agree on a date today as booking opens up tomorrow and Wednesday and for a new ship the early tier pricing is going to go fast.

Personally based on the above I'd rather look at a 5 night on the Dream that won't sell out as fast. Just my 2 cents.

I am flexible with dates so I do not necessarily have to sail in April. What are others thoughts?

 

[manascarfan]

We would be available to cruise April 14th-April 22 2012, some where in that timeframe. I would love to meet up with everyone again!

Hi Everybody!

I was just looking at the dates for the five-day (which honestly would be more affordable for me) and there is one on April 10th. Is that too early for you Dave? And I'm like Mary, I don't want to rush into things on the Fantasy - Although the inaugural would be nice, we'd have to do that tomorrow or really soon - and since the Dream and the Fantasy are sister ships like Magic and Wonder, they will be very much alike and the Dream will be fine with us - as long as we are cruising with all of you!!!

 

[susieq55]

Another Idea would be to do a four day and a three day back to back and then we could go on April 15th and the 19th - and make it a whole week!!

 

[manascarfan]

I can't find any points charts for the 2012 cruises, do we just book on cash deposits and then transfer? Never booked this far in advance...

I would so love to do the inaugural Fantasy cruise, but not sure if that works for anyone, imagine the "Original Sunrise Coffee Club" lol I know it is outside our "window" but would love to try and do it.

Hello old friends! I cannot believe that this board is still going and going.... I thought everyone moved to Facebook.... and I hadn't checked back here. I read a bit back- but not all of it!! I'm glad to hear everyone is doing well!! I want to go on another cruise too!! But then again, what else is new?!

Sue - where did you find the dates for 2012 for the 5 nights?

Sadly early in the month (any month) doesn't work with my new job. I'd need it to be at least after the 15th (about the time we usually finish closing).

Not only are 5 nights more affordable - they also offer two stops at CC and I love CC. Plus I don't think there will be a rush for 2012 Dream reservations like there will be for the Fantasy.

Hopefully we can all find a sailing that works for everyone, but I don't want to hold anyone back of doing a 7 day if that is what they want.

 

[manascarfan]

A 5 night on the Dream is awesome as well, we are open to whatever is most accomodating.

 

[Time4disneynow]

Good Morning everyone....hope all is well with you. Nice to see this thread still going.

I read Marks post on Facebook about 2012 cruise.

Michael and I would love to join you. Our preference would be the 5-night Bahamas (double CC)...

Have a good day.

There is a five day on March 27 - how about that one?

Actually there is a March 22nd that would work even better (a little bit down from where you found the dates). It goes to Nassau first and is listed as itinerary D.

How does that date work for those who have kids in school?

The other alternative would be in mid-late June (like the 24th).


Oh and I almost forgot. If we pick the March 22nd sailing we could celebrate Mark's birthday (on the 22nd) and mine on the 24th.

 

[manascarfan]

March would not work for us, the June date 24th? would work. We have a February vacation and an April one.

Hey gang. Dave just told me on FB about the activity over here so I'm back to check it out. Been MIA for a while. Ooops.

Looks like many good ideas are out there. I really like the idea of a 5 day cruise. Anytime we can stop at CC twice is great with us .

And the March date, our kids would be back in school. But if we have to go without them, we would. Seeings how we met all of you guys without them. But I think June for us would work out best for the four of us. But we will try to make it work no matter what.

 

[WDWLVR]

June would work for us. Only other vacation we have planned is October that year.

June 24th would work for us as well!

 

[WDWLVR]

Giving us a bump back to page one. I also sent out a facebook message but I'm sure I forgot some as I sent it too early so I sent a second message. Hope I didn't miss anyone that time. I also sent it to some of our SSMC08 friends to see if they want to join us as well.

 

[OKWMEMBER]

Trying to catch up here. With no kids, we can go any time. We would be up for the 5 day with two stops at CC.

Hi Gary!!!

Wow its so good to hear from some of the 09 crew!! I'm so excited! I have to talk to John about the June one - it would be great for DS but right when he is setting up summer camp - but I'll really try!!!!
