2015 sail dates?

[DISNEY FANTASY]

Me too, me too, me too!

Having to tell myself to calm down as probably won't be true - never seen any suggestion before. I so wish it would be though!!

There has been nothing to support this bar it comes from an excellent source.

Please don't tease me Was it a US commercial did you say? If I was in the US now, I'd be channel flicking to try and find it

Cant add more than the quote I posted.

Can...

A poster on on board said they saw it on the Disney channel.

Also mentioned Fantasy.

Bummer. Really wanted it to be the Magic.

We do Not think the Fantasy and New York were coupled together,

We know Fantasy is in the Caribbean, it cant be going there.

Its just the advert, mentioned New York and 'also' mentioned the Fantasy but not linked.

Yes, but the quote said plural -cruises.

No, the quote said you can sail disney out of new york. Didn't say how many. And if it was a commercial, it could have said "to" new york instead of "out of" and been miseheard. Just sayin....

To me it doesn't make sense to sail an empty ship between FL and NYC (because you can't have one ways between US ports), unless you were going to have enough cruises to make it worth it. Might be if the EBTA leaves from NYC...but I don't know if 2 weeks is long enough for all of that to happen at all...

It will end at Aug.

Sept & on will be released later.......

It may be Mon or Tues (announcement)

I've been subscribed to this thread for a while now and found it very helpful. But I want to make sure I have all the details clear...

Even though I've cruises 4 times with DCL, I've never booked on opening day. Just never worked out the way. Anyway, I want to make sure i have this understood perfectly since I teach all day, I need to have someone be my person and book for me (and I better have everything very clear because I'll be busy).

So the announcement is that is expected on Monday or Tuesday will only be made to certain people (Platinum)? Or will it be made to everyone? How will it be made? Email?

If the announcement is Monday, Platinum books Tuesday and Wednesday, and then since I am Silver, I can book on Thursday? Does that mean DCL will email me on Wednesday about the cruises?

I know there will be posts on here, but I am wondering what info I can expect directly from DCL...

Thanks for putting it into context, I didnt hear at as said.

Everyone

How will it be made? Email?

Website/ TAs Facebook

Not sent by E Mail it will be a public announcement on Monday and everyone can book from Thursday

I know there will be posts on here, but I am wondering what info I can expect directly from DCL...

Answers above.

Keep looking at DCL official website from Monday, there maybe more clarification as to when it will be made soon,

Sorry, misunderstood your meaning

No need to apologize, I was re posting it here quickly and I can see how it could have been taken.

I googled and found where you were cutting and pasting that information from. Not really sure how someone hearing someone else say something is a credible source, but I'll believe NYC when I see it...

She is a DCL TA.

I personally trust her.

OOHH!! You are paying more attention than I am! One way works for me or B2B. I'll have to talk to my kids and see what they would prefer, although, they love the Edge and Vibe, so I am assuming they want to stay on the ship for as many days as possible. Making closer and more lasting friendships. Hopefully my then 10 year old (2 weeks from being 11) will be allowed to play with them at the Edge.

We've been anxiously waiting on this one, had to download the port schedules so I could see it myself. I would prefer roundtrip, but if pricing is good BTB works also.

Looking at the port schedules, it looks like one ways.
Sept 13th Hilo
Sept 15th Kahului
Sept 16th Kahului
Sept 17th Oahu - single day here appears to be disembark and embark, which would be the perfect tie in with Aulani
Sept 18th Kahului
Sept 19th Kahului
Sept 20th Hilo

Hopefully since a one way only has 2 actual ports (Hilo and Kahului) before disembarking, maybe pricing will be reasonable. At least I can dream right!

Not sure if the Jones Act will allow a B2B with Hawaii. I'm sure someone here would know.

I believe they can if sailing out of and in to Vancouver.

She is a DCL TA.

I personally trust her.

She said a poster on a board told her, so how credible is the poster? That is my question. I totally believe she heard about it on a board, but that doesn't mean the original poster is credible.

By that measure then we would never know anything here as nothing will ever be trusted.

I know her and trust her and thats good enough for me, if its not for others so be it,

Since July last year I have heard Rumor after Rumor, I only post the ones I trust, I posted on my Blog in August 2013 about DCL going to the Baltic, after hearing it from a couple of credible sources, when that rumor became stronger I then posted it on an open forum on Cruise Critic, its pinned as the top thread posts there for all to see. One person said home port Copenhagen another said Dover, both were right in the end.

Somepoint after that circa September someone told me about a connection between the film Frozen and DCL going to Norway, they were not someone I knew too well, I thought, yes I know about the Baltic, it must be Oslo and didn't think more about it. In fact as the link was so easy to understand I discounted it incorrectly thinking it was just that someone linking the two, so two and two make four.

On that one I didn't share it but in hindsight should have. Seems they were onto something.

So you never know what you should and shouldn't filter.

I had someone tell me last Friday there are two more things we do not know at this time, only time will show us what they are.

Anyway, when I read that tonight, I thought I would share it here to let everyone know, they can make their own minds up.

I have no problem posting rumors, but calling them credible without verification is problematic (I have a huge background in research and evaluating sources). Hopefully the commercial will surface soon and we can verify it is in fact a new one! Would be interesting if they threw in a few NYC cruises, and it does seem like a reasonable port to sail the EBTA from. I imagine it'll be one long NE/Canada cruise or a couple of shorter ones. For sure the Magic is in PC on 5/3, and in Europe on the 29th, so that's 26 days unaccounted for and 12-14 to cross the Atlantic... What would the travel time from PC to NYC be?

Credible source a DCL trusted TA.

A nice poster has posted this commercial on a FB group thread and it clearly said, "sailing out of NYC" and mentioned Canada. I watched the video and my gut tells me it's an old video. It goes on to show the Med and just different places they go and again, it just has an old vibe to it. A cruiser on my April thread mentioned it's been airing over the last several days and I think it's nutty of DCL to air it but apparently it's not new to today only.

I'm not referring to sources or people, just the video and indeed it stated NYC, but again it feels like an older one to me.

Thank you for that clarification

I agree its rather 'nutty' for it to Air. .

So we do know the source and we do know people have been seeing it and reporting it correctly.
