2015 sail dates?

[Silverfox97]

I guess this means anyone waiting for Hawaii will be waiting a bit longer as well. UGH!!!

Are we sure "summer" does not include September?

You may get a few Sept dates, but example, you probably won't get anything past the last Alaska sailing. It's not like the Dream/Fantasy schedules are any big mystery; it's the 'ambassador' ships that they like to keep mysterious.

Wow, this is one of a very few times in life I wish I wasn't right. I will book Baltic for sure. It's my "do over" since I was afraid of cruising in 2010. Apparently, I am over it.

I'll second that.

Me too. I won't ever cruise in the Summer, but it's fun to watch the opening day excitement, drama, backlash or whatever you want to call it.

For the first time in memory i find myself wanting the weekend out of the way - Can't wait for next week!!! C'mon Monday

It will end at Aug. Sept & on will be released later....... It may be Mon or Tues (announcement) Sent from my iPhone using DISBoards

I predicted this quite a while ago. Since they've limited the OBB discounts to 18 months they'll be limiting the releases to about the same timeframe. I'm bummed. I was hoping I was wrong.

We can thank their onboard booking situation for this. Too many people 'parking' cruises. Guess what DCL? GO TO A VOUCHER SYSTEM.

I'm so mad at myself for forgetting to put it on my survey last week

I think a voucher system makes alot of sense, but I bet Disney prefers dummy bookings because it increases revenue. As people book dummy cruises, inventory drops and prices rise. I always thought dummy cruises would cause Disney more hassle than it's worth, but apparently not. They must be ok with continuing to allow them, albeit for a shorter period now.

I would love for Disney to go to Norway and have a "Frozen" tie in.

You do not have to spend the cash card at Costco. You can take your cash card to the customer service desk, and they will give you cash for it.

Very helpful info! Thx Jodie!

We're aiming for the fjord cruise, but the 2010 Baltic was so good, I'm almost tempted to repeat it. We haven't been on too many DCL cruises, but compared to our previous med's and the Dream, the Baltic is my still my favorite!

I'm hoping for the same. Looks promising. Wouldn't that be cool to have Anna and Elsa welcome you back to the ship after a day of sightseeing?

This would be a HUGE part of us booking a Norway cruise. It'd be a treat for dd!

I'd still do it without, but feel less attached to the cruise if the dates didn't end up working out later on and might consider another line. With the frozen tie in, I'd stick with DCL.

Patience?? I wish! Long car rides make me feel like I'm embarking on some big adventure (I'm weird). We drove across country this summer (VA to Montana) - loved it - one of my favorite vacations! But we flew home. Couldn't have handled the looong drive back home.

Sorry for getting so off topic. Back to impatiently waiting for 2015.

Jodie

We rented an RV and drove 6,800 one summer -- best trip we've ever taken. I love being on the road - more control, lots to see, good food With airfares, I think the next time we go to WDW we might drive it.

I am still holding out that they will release all of 2015. (PLEASE!) I will be so bummed out if they do not. It is getting harder and harder to pass on the other cruise lines with this long wait. Plus I was going to decide if I wanted to try Alaska or a Southern cruise. But I won't know now. And if I book an Alaska cruise, and then change to a southern, I am just making it that much harder for others to get a good price and a room. Seems like it would just inflate the prices. Ugh.

How much longer do you think will we have to wait for Dec 2015 if they do not release it with the announcement on Monday?! Do you think they will make us wait until August/September this year? That is crazy. I like to plan, I don't like to wait.

 

[MomTo3PrincessesInNJ]

We plan to cruise during Jersey Week next year (November) I'll be super sad if they don't release those dates next week

Do you think this also means that we won't know for sure about the Magic's last couple before the WBTA..? Seems odd they wouldn't get all of Europe out there since its not really a "secret" if the rest is out.

Me too...

They held back Oct - Dec 2014 for the Wonder until 6/3/13. Of course, then they switched everything for the Magic & Dream at the same time.
