Jet Blue to Florida
Airtran on the way home

Got it. Definitely check then. I know we've been moved twice now with NO email from them. My guess is they will move it slightly again. I just want them to move my outbound so I can switch to the non-stop.

Here's 3 that I had that night:

Lovely Jeff

Happy Early Father's Day to all you great Daddy's out there. We are leaving for the weekend so I won't be here until late on Sunday to wish you all a great day.

Have a good weekend everyone.

Ditto from us too.

 

[GOS]

That's me done for tonight.

I've just checked our final invoice and we've been charged $56.00 each. Think we might get all this back?

Found this on another website..

Disney Cruise Line

The Surcharge: A fuel surcharge of $8 per person, per day, applies to the first and second guests in a stateroom and $3 per person, per day, applies to third, fourth and fifth guests. The surcharge may not exceed $112 per person, per sailing, for the first two passengers, and $42 per person, per sailing, for additional passengers.

Update: Effective December 1, Disney is eliminating fuel surcharges for all new bookings. For cruises that have already been booked, refunds in the form of onboard credit will be given if the closing price on the NYMEX of West Texas Intermediate fuel is below $70 a barrel two weeks prior to the beginning of the calendar quarter in which the sailing falls. Determination dates are as follows: December 18, 2008 for first quarter 2009 (January 1 to March 31, 2009 ); March 18, 2009 for second quarter 2009 (April 1 to June 30, 2009); June 17, 2009 for third quarter 2009 (July 1 to September 30, 2009); September 17, 2009 for fourth quarter 2009 (October 1 to December 31, 2009). The same dates apply for 2010 cruises.

Who's Affected: The surcharge applies to all bookings made on or after May 28, 2008.

Great, and oil is hovering around $70 a barrell right now. Good thing is Sept 17th is after Labor Day here in the States which is the end of Summer. Gas usually comes down right after that.

Now for the people who got refunds or weren't charged, I'm assuming they will see an add-on charge if DCL implements it on us. Anyone know how this works? If some of us pay, we all should pay.

That's me done for tonight.

Night Sis!

Thanks for checking. I'm not sure if I want to move it....I think 11:44 is still ok, but it's starting to make me nervous.

Now here's a question....I looked at the 3:31 flight that day, and the plane looks mostly full (just by clinking on the icon that shows the available seats) but it looks like ALL the middle seats are taken. Does that make sense? I didn't see 2 seats together on that flight, let alone 3.

If it is a 737, they block the middle seat on the left side of the plane for some reason. Not sure why. If you get a good agent, they will put you in the seat (the bad agents just tell you it's taken when it really isn't).

 

[JLDSMD]

We are taking our time too. Per your advice, we are only getting a 24 hr rental to save money. We are getting a 12 passenger van for the 7 of us and got a decent rate. We will go to the airport a little early for our flight to keep it a 24 hour rate on 11/1.

With our flight moving up, we're not going to have much wasted time in MCO before we fly after the 24 hour drop off. That's the other benefit of staying on the ship to almost the end, you pick the car up later.

 

[JLDSMD]

Yes they are going that night as well. Tell Chris he has to go. He doesnt have a choice.

Make sure you PM Cass so she can add you to the list for that day.

 

[JLDSMD]

Shall I add you guys to the MNSSHP list on the BOB site then?

Yep. Thank you very much.

There I go again, posting before reading.

Happy Early Father's Day to all you great Daddy's out there. We are leaving for the weekend so I won't be here until late on Sunday to wish you all a great day.

Have a good weekend everyone.

Thanks Lori. Wish Scott happy Fathers' Day from me.

 

[JLDSMD]

That's me done for tonight.

Sorry I missed talking to you in real-time Heather. Have a nice night.

 

[JLDSMD]

I'm out. Suz is almost home and we have to go pick up the SUV. Needed to get a new transmission put in. $1,800 later.

 

[minnieandmickey]

Should be a whole new (less of) me by then.

 

[Walt & Di]

Good thing it was after you'd been up the mountain instead of at the top! What hotel did they put you up at? You must be about ready to leave NE and out across the country again.

We stayed at the Inn of Mill Falls. It was very nice. We will be leaving New Hampshire tomorrow and then to Mass for a couple days then on to Niagara Falls for a couple days then to our favorite friends Mike and Robin for a couple days. We should be home by July 3rd. I don't miss my home or car just my grandkids Elijah and Asiah and kids Kristen and Erika. Di

This was one of Cartegena that I had.

Wow!

 

[Ranzatan]

Ok, one more photo and then I'm done....since I think I drove everyone away by stealing the Googly...

Thomas with his soccer medal:

Jen, your son is so cute!

Your tshirts are great too!
I don't think we'll be doing that but perhaps we could figure out how to make the buttons like Nancy did.

 

[Ranzatan]

Shall I add you guys to the MNSSHP list on the BOB site then?

Cass, can you add us, Arleen and Alex to MNSSHP on October 31st?

Thanks

Guess I'm all alone

Hi Arleen. I'm over checking the radar. More storms moving in tonight.
