2015 sail dates?

[Goaliemom30]

So what are the likely June 2015 rotations for Fantasy itineraries? What would be departure days? I know someone has figured it out!

E Mail from a major DCL TA

Edited to comply with this board.

the wait is going to drive me nuts.

I forget how they announce the itineraries though. Monday they come out, but what do they provide us, dates, routes? I know prices won't be out until Tues for Plat/Gold but how will I know what to ask my TA for? I forget how I did it last Feb for Alaska haha.

Needing the WBTA. I want to book now. Trying to decide how much I can spend and what type of cabin I will end up with.

Me too, I think we've decided to do either the EBTA or WBTA (unless the ports really don't suit).

Or stay at Cocoa Beach and go to the space center. You can get free tickets through your Congressman. We had a great day there. Plus it was nice and relaxing to take a long walk on the beach the morning we boarded the ship. Ahhh . . .

We've done both Cocoa and the space center

Another idea - how about swimming with the manatees in Crystal River??? We did that before our last 4 nighter, and it was wonderful! I would like to do it again actually.

Got my fingers crossed for wbta if it comes into florida vs Puerto Rico (1 less flight ticket), a ebta if they add 2 or 3 more ports then this year or a Panama Canal crossing. Let's get the ball rolling with these dates disney. They are acting like it's their first year in the cruise industry and one person planning all of 2015.

So can't wait til next week!!! Have been building myself up for the 24th as its been mentioned so many times...
EBTA 2015 here we come..

Only thing that Sux for me is I'm 12 hours ahead so it's like waiting a whole extra day.... Lol

For those of us anxiously awaiting the potential Baltic and Northern Fjords cruises, I picked up the BBC DVD Vikings by Neil Oliver at Costco this week for $20 (CDN). Essentially there are 3 one hour (approx) shows that trace the history of the Vikings from their roots in Sweden, Denmark and Norway, through Ireland and England and onwards to Iceland with a 'wee' bit of Greenland thrown in. A little time is also spent in St Petersburg, Russia (apparently the Vikings who arrived there were known as the Rus - or men who row).

The documentary is very well done - and the disc includes subtitles for those that might need help understanding the Scottish accent of the host . Then again, some of us find a man with a Scottish accent to be very ... Intriguing

She would LOVE that. Or going to Weekeewatchie (I know I butchered that spelling) to see the real "mermaids"


I do have a question for anyone that can help. How can I be sure I get a room mid-ship? I know I would like to be on either deck 8 or 9 (7 will be OK too) and depending on price, we'll book either a porthole window or balcony, but I don't understand what the categories are that I see (example 09D or 09B)? Trying to be as prepared as possible when the prices are released. Will I actually pick THE room or are those assigned when we check in?

TIA

Here is a link to the deck plans for all ships that will show the various categories and where they are. You will either be assigned a room or you can choose your own at the time of booking. You can also modify the room you have later.

Midship on decks 7-9 will be a verandah; if you want an oceanview (porthole) room midship you'll need to be on a lower deck.

The letters associated with the number categories simply reflect location on a deck (midship, forward, aft) and otherwise aren't any different. To get a less expensive stateroom, you can either shift forward or aft (rather than midship) or move down to a lower deck.

Enjoy your cruise!

Just a reminder that if you are looking at deck 9 staterooms are on that deck on the newer Dream Class ships and the Magic/Wonder have no rooms on deck 9.

THANKS! Great info. I've downloaded the deck plan for the Dream because I believe that's the ship we'll be on. That's assuming they don't change ships after April 2015 for the 4 day cruises to the Bahamas out of PC!

I imagine the Fantasy will do eastern and westerns, rotating weekd. I see no reason they would switch the departure day (Saturday).

Woowoo!!! Shout out to my Florida pod sisters! We went there for years since we were practically babies! Maybe that's where it all started.
