Exciting, but a let-down. No date for EBTA.

I'm waiting to hear what's coming in August. There's half the year they haven't announced yet.

I love to cruise... wish I could afford a Disney cruise!

I'm waiting to see what the Wonder and Magic are doing after April 2012. I'm hoping the Wonder is going to Hawaii and the Magic is coming to NY/NJ.

For those wondering where the Magic is heading when the Fantasy comes online in 2012, there's a hint from Bob Iger's comments at a Goldman Sachs analyst conference September 21, 2010.

In response to a question on capital expenditure in the parks and resorts, Iger said this...

We've had great returns on our cruise ship business. We're adding a third ship in 2011 and a fourth ship in 2012, two great new ships in terms of the experience that they will create for customers...

So it's been a very good business for us and we're really excited about being able to put a ship in L.A. sailing to Mexico and in the northwest sailing to Alaska, and to use a fourth ship ultimately to spend most of its time in the Mediterranean to ply the waters along the way and to bring the two new ships to the Caribbean, which is our primary business..

Credit goes to the Orlando Sentinel's Jason Garcia for bringing the Iger comment to my attention.
