2010 news from the Magic

[dizneyfan23]

Does any one know when the points will be out for these cruise for the DVC owners?
Going to that website now................

I didn't see them listed there, perhaps I missed them.

Maybe if you called Member Services, they would be able to let you know.

OK guys, being thick here. Do the prices "from and to" include taxes except the fuel surcharge or not?

OK - someone help the utterly confused here - the dates they released today were only for the European and Baltic cruises? What about the caribbean cruises for 2010?

Help a mousketeer in peril here....

Thanks!

They did say you could tour the shipyard in Germany and see the new Disney ships in their final days of construction. Or at least one of them.

Thanks for that although it means the price will be even higher. I'm off to price up the competition.

What about the regular cruises thought those would be up too!

Yeah! I am a little dissapointed.

I was excited to see what exactly the special iteneraries were gonna be, but I was even more excited to get an idea of the dates for the other sailings.

I thought I had read on here that we would know all of 2010 by this week. Any idea of when the 2010 regular iteneraries are coming out? I'd love to know.

 

[NancyIL]

And I said it would be out of Dover - lovely not far from home and no flight.

You can do a LOT better pricewise on another cruise line out of Dover!

 

[mickeymo]

I'm also waiting for the rest of 2010 to be released!!!

it said something about Oct. 14....but I'm so confused....

 

[dizneyfan23]

Oct. 14 is when you can start booking those special cruises they announced today.

Foolish People Onboard?

LOL

 

[GuardMusic]

So how do we know what the final price will be? Do the TAs have this info? Will DCL tell me if I call the regular number?

You will not have the exact price until they open up bookings. Right now, all you can do is estimate and hope you get in at first tier pricing.

At the prices Disney is charging for all but the TA's - I think first-tier pricing will be around for QUITE some time.

Gee, I guess we'll have to start saving big time in order to afford one of these cruises PLUS the airfare. I'm pretty sure I'm not gonna be able to talk DH into booking with the way the economy is right now, especially since there is no sign of an upswing anytime soon.

God Bless you...that is a very nice thing you did

Hi Din!!! Thank you for your kind words! Wow - it's great to hear from you! We had fun sharing the private guide/tour of Florence & Pisa with your family on our 7-7-07 Med cruise! Maybe we'll end up on another European cruise together sometime in the future!

Deb T, CONGRATS on the bone marrow donation. I donated a kidney to my wife almost 11 years ago and all is going fine. We need more people like you in this world.

Thanks, wdwowner! It's remarkable that you even matched your DW for the kidney transplant! I'm so glad to hear all's going well for both of you!

WTG both debt and wdwowner. A friend of mine donated a kidney to my DH this past May. He's still having post-transplant complications, but we are confident that once he gets past this first year, that all will go well for him too. All 3 of you prove that angels do exist.

mousemom11 - I will keep your DH in my prayers that he enjoys a full recovery soon! I'm just glad that transplant procedures are even available for those who desperately need them! It still boggles my mind that out of over 7 million people on the National Bone Marrow Registry, I was THE match for a stranger!

Now... my apologies for temporarily hijacking this thread. I didn't expect the outpouring of - although I should have, knowing how wonderful everyone is here on these boards. I met nzdisneymom last April on a spring break Wonder cruise and had mentioned to her then that, at the time, I was the "potential match", so when I saw her post several pages ago I wanted to let her know it did happen.

MTE!! I looked at possibly a Cat 6 & Cat 11 for our family of 5 and even if we got first Tier pricing it would be about ove $19K, this does not include taxes, fees or Fuel surcharges. Add on another $10K for airfare and excursions, possibly another $2K for pre and post cruise stays, we are looking at about $31K. That's insane! Especially in this economy.

 

[CPM]

I bet there will be a lot of Europeons booking these cruises.

that's what I think to

although I understand why it is high, I mean last time I got gas in my car it was 80 bucks and wasn't even empty yet, I know not the same thing, but things these days cost a lot, heck even all the other cruise lines we looked at seem to expensive with the air for us, but if DCL is going there we will try to book since it is DCL
