2015 sail dates?

[raymeswh]

I can't remember where I read it (and thus can't account of accuracy at all), but I've heard they will release dates this Friday (2/14). I sure hope so....I am anxiously awaiting putting plans in motion for an October or November 2015 cruise and trip to WDW.

Us too, I cant wait!

When we were onboard in January, the booking agent said the release would occur in March. Who knows if that is correct, but we may have to wait a while longer . . . Jodie

I was told the same thing at the rebooking desk on the 2-6-14 Dream cruise.

They really do need to get this info. out soon as the European sailings are more expensive than the others and need to be PIF sooner. Give us a chance to plan and budget DCL, get us the info.

March would be better for me. I just ate at the Aulani. Geez, I about had a heart attack at the bill. I need time to recover.

March is only better if they wait til my 3/29 cruise so I can just book onboard...

But even then... ideally they at least announce the itineraries ahead of time so I'm not trying to track those down and decide on the ship what I want to do.

I have a dummy date to transfer and money literally sitting in my account waiting to book the Baltic...come on DCL...I'm going to be so bummed if they just do the Med cruises again in 2015. While we LOVED ours, I want something different!

 

[IBelieveInTheMagic]

Yep, I held out for hope today would be the day but ended up having to move my recent dummy to Costco since my 30 days was coming up, so I did it this morning. Naturally I called DCL to see if any hints, laughs, etc. would be given about the release date but of course nothing. She only said, yep it's definitely not today. Seems the folks mentioning March are getting it right but who knows when in March but hey- that's just next month, right? OMG - GOING NUTS

Hang in there guys - I'm trying to remain positive and optimistic that every day we are getting closer.

I just hope we aren't all let down with a huge sigh if prices for 2015 are as high as Spring Break is (ours went up 34%) as that would likely knock us out.

Same here, we will only be booking a Baltics if it's available. Won't be booking anything else as Baltics is the only schedule we want to do and I want to do it with DCL. Otherwise it will be other holiday plans for 2015!

Now you get to pay the $25 change fee. I have changed one dummy so many times that the change fees have nearly outweighed the money from Costco!

 

[DisneYE]

I remember reading on here that the rest of 2015 dates were going to be released some time in January...then end of January...then sometime in Feb...
I was really hoping they'd be out for when we cruise in 4 weeks time...
Really wanted to book the TA for summer 2015 onboard and get the 10% discount...
DCL is toying with our emotions...
oh well...will keep on checking...

Whats up with that??? I've moved dummy cruises quite a few times with Costco, but have never been charged the change fee. I thought that fee was charged only when you downgrade your room (thus paying less) on the same cruise? You need to sweet talk your Costco rep the next time!

Yep just as Jodie said. I've booked several cruises with Costco and the $25 fee only applies when you downgrade and it results in a lower fare. If you are moving over a dummy nothing is changing essentially so no fee. When I move it to Alaska it will go UP unfortunately - lol!

Here's hoping the confirmation reminders mean something is coming up soon...

I think the confirmations were because of a change in some tax or port fees. We're traveling on 5/24 and just randomly got updated confirmations - for 2A , it went down almost $18-

Do you know what I love about you, Heather???? You always agree with me!!!

Such a pleasant change from my household - ha (I say that lovingly of course in case my DD, DS, or DH ever read this).

Snowed in here today. Have been reading trip reports all day.

When we were on our cruise over Thanksgiving we were hoping to book the first Med cruise in 2015 which would have been on the last day of the 18 month window. Because dates weren't out yet the booking agent got permission to do a place hold for us and said that as soon as dates are released, we can either cancel, change to a different cruise, or take that cruise if it pops up on the right date...and it would keep our OBB discount. He said plan for mid February so here's hoping it is any day now!!

any idea/rumors what the Disney Fantasy will be doing in September 2015?

also would the ship sail off on same days as 2014?
looks like Fantasy sails out of FL on Saturdays.

Wondering if that will stay the same in 2015

on the edge of our seats...praying that the 2015 dates in September work with ours for a cruise wedding.

thanks

Since we are all sitting here waiting for the 2015 dates, I remember that there use to be double dip cruises at Castaway Cay. Do they still do those anymore? What do you think the odds would be for any of those to be released for summer/fall 2015?

Hi Steve
I'm getting anxious waiting for those dates for our Fall 2015 cruise!
I haven't cruised in awhile and I'm so waiting to see everyone again!

Hi Rose,

It's Tammy from the Magic October 2007 cruise. My DD Rachel & I have taken 2 DCL cruises since then, the last one this past October on the Fantasy. On that cruise we booked a "dummy" cruise and are waiting for the Fall 2015 dates too. Waiting for the dates so that we can pick which ship and itinerary we will sail. Hope you are doing well.

Tammy

This is what we have been waiting for as well however can not go into March. Have a pre hold on another line who is offering 2 for 1 and airfare through the 28th so I have to pull the trigger if we don't see DCL.
