09/13/09 SSMC09 S.S. Member Cruise 2009

[MarkRG]

Mace and I are thinking about it. We decided at first not to do 2009 because we want to wait til Rheya's at least 3 before we go again (would only be 2010) BUT now I'm thinking hey..maybe Mace and I can go by ourselves. Of course the kids would disagree...but either way we are thinking about it.

Soooo, that little tram ride gained your interest?

Here, let me help you along

LOL! I like the way you all think! Now I'm working on Mace. But I must say...the way the economy is going can't make any decisions now. But I do only have a month.

Only one month away for those Dialing in!!

Only one month away for those Dialing in!!

And a looooooong month it is going to be. Better start doing my dialing finger exercises to get in shape.

 

[WDWLVR]

I just realized that November 2nd is a Sunday. Usually call in is on a Saturday morning. Wonder if we heard wrong or if they are changing it to a Sunday call in. Hmmmm. We'll have to wait until we get the official word from DVC.

I just spoke with MS and was trying to find out about "downgrading" our "free" cabin so we could take our kids with us next year. The CM was not aware of the dial-in date as of now. You are right Mary, I thought it was on a Saturday as well. Good Luck!! Almost seems like I will be missing some of the suspense on Dial-In morning I remember last year being in chat while calling in!

 

[MarkRG]

My theory: They moved it to Sunday as MS is now open on Saturday and they don't want the call-in disrupting normal operations.

Mary - one time when I called MS on a Sunday the CM told me that usually they are sitting around with not many calls coming in. So maybe we can get them to hopping that day!

Good points. Guess we'll have to re-arrange our plans just a bit and do Mass on Saturday night so we'll be ready for calling on Sunday morning!

Just got an e-mail from DVC about the '09 member cruise in response to this question.. it said:

"At this time, we do not have the Point Chart for the 2009 Member Cruise.
All we know is the dates are September 13-17, 2009 and the booking date
is November 2, 2008. Information will be mailed to all Members with the
Point Chart and information will be posted online at dvcmember.com when
it becomes available."

It's not much info, but we should get more soon

Thanks! So at least we know we heard right. Sunday booking it is!

We are considering dialing in on the 2nd. We had such a great time on this cruise that we would love to do it, but it might be too close to our Cruise that we are doing in MAy... We are still on the fence...

 

[ont/ohana]

We are seriously condsidering the cruise. We already are planning to be down in WDW that week with friends for the MNSSHP and we would only have to pay one airfare if we rolled the cruise into that week as well. Three weeks to decide. I turn 40 on Oct 30th- what a better way to celebrate than to book a DCL!!!

 

[Time4disneynow]

That would be a great birthday present!!!!!
Sending you some pixie dust..... (if you decide to go) for the call in on Nov 2nd for the Members cruise 2009.
Take care

Just our luck, after a few days of getting back, vikki and I are sick. We received our BLT info, but with what is going on in world, we may wait before signing in. Or will will buy into Hawaii? Any one else going to sign in a watch the DCL news tomorrow?

 

[Eeyore77]

Oh No it seems like everyone got sick after the cruise.... Chris has a bad head cold that he got the Sunday that we went home....

Wayne, the Kids and I had such a great time on the '08 cruise that we are going to try to book into te '09 cruise. Wayne will just have to have his dialing fingers ready with all the phones we have. I regretfully will be at work.

We better get into the '09 cruise because the kids and I have started our fish extender gifts already. The '08 cruise being our first, I wasn't sure what to do. Now that we have done 1, I now know what to expect.

I sure wish I would have found DIS sooner than I did for the '08 cruise. I would love to know a few days in advance what the events would be on board. I've always been a very organized person and love to know the "plan" for the day. We missed out on a lot of shows and "fun" things because the kids just wanted to stay in the pools. =( Maybe on the "09 I will get to do more of the shows and presentations. I always felt like I was missing something, but just didn't know what.

Like others we bought into BLT. I swore up and down that we wouldn't, but the Disney Magic just hit me and I couldn't help myself. We didn't add on enough to get the cruise, but we did enough to get a 5 day stay at DAKV. I tried talking them into giving us the stay at the tree top villas with the #of points we added on, but they wern't going for that. They said that it would screw up the "charts" they had. I am very excited to get the Mickey sculpture in the mail. Wayne was undecided about adding on now, or when Hawaii opens. I made that decision and said BOTH. LOL. In my opinion, you can never have enough Disney vacation points. I'm trying to talk my in-lays and my best friend into buying into the points so they can vacation with us. =) I think it will be a lot of fun and build up a lot of memories. So now I must change my sig to add BLT.

A wise person told me before the cruise to take an extra suitcase for all the goodies. I wish they would have said 1 extra for every 2 people. With there being 8 of us...........we should have brought about 3-4. LOL the kids were always so excited to see what was left on the bed and what ws in the fish extenders. I was really greatful for all the "tips and tricks" of sailing. They really helped me move all 8 of us along with very little speed bumps.

I wish everyone luck on dial day =) I'll keep my fingers crossed. I just wish there was a way for me to keep in touch with DH while he dials in so I will know the moment it happens. =)

Sending all my Disney love from Wisconsn,
DejnosluvMickey~Stephania

For your amusement of the day, go to Google, put in DVC member cruise 2009 and see what you get.

And that's without even really trying.

 

[WDWLVR]

Giving this a Sunday morning bump as we are one week closer to call in day.

Only 3 weeks to go!
