2015 sail dates?

[gydell]

What is the site for the commercial? Thanks!

I understand its more about staggering the impact of releases now they have four ships and lots of itineraries rather than OBB rule changes.

Release day takes a major hit on the CMs on the phone and the Internet servers, and doing in it sections takes more of the pressure off, plus gives flexibility where they have before changed there minds and its cost them money when they put in a dry dock or change a cruise routing.

This makes perfect sense. I agree it's less about OBB rule changes. Otherwise, Disney would have released more itineraries months ago to allow cruisers since November 2013 to have a full 18 months of itineraries to choose from. Either way, I'm glad it won't be long now, even if it's not for the entire year!

So here is another rumor I just saw on Facebook, not sure if it was reported here. A woman who says she is a Disney Cruise bus driver states that the Dream will begin doing 7 night cruises along with the Fantasy. The Magic will take over the short sailings. And no NYC cruises. Can't wait for all these "rumors" to be over and the truth to actually come out!

I would love this!! We are looking for a short sailing on the Magic.

It's also possible that the EBTA will go from FL to NYC for a port stop, and then head east, is it not?

I saw a Disney Cruise Line comlmercial on CBS earlier while watching the NCAA tournament but unfortunately did not have the sound on(listening to CDs). I have them all set to tape for the rest of the day so if airs again I will have it.

I wouldn't mind a port stop in NYC, but I don't want to begin the TA in NYC. I think the ship would have to sail empty from PC to NY if DCL intends to do a few cruises from NY before sailing to Europe.

We just got off the Dream on Thursday. We heard that the Dream will be switching to 7 day cruises and the Fantasy will be doing the 3, 4 and 5 day cruises. We were hoping to book at 7 day cruise on the Fantasy but it looks like it will be on the Dream instead. The Dream will also be in dry dock.

Stuff like this makes me just shake my head.

We have been told so much nonsense on board it's not even funny AND we don't even ask. It's unsolicited chatter but always funny to hear.

I cannot wait until Tuesday.

Tuesday? Not Monday anymore?

I believe it will be the typical DCL pattern - announcement Tues, Plat/Gold book Wed, Silver/Gen Public Thurs.

I just got even more excited, if that's possible...

We are planning on WDW before the EBTA, so an EBTA leaving from NYC would not be good for us - more airfare etc. to get there. But an EBTA stopping in NYC. That would be AWESOME.

I foresee a VERY late night for me Monday and Tuesday (since morning US time is very late night our time)

I just was just on the phone with DCL yesterday regarding our upcoming cruise to Greece in July. Without even asking about 2015, he said, "well if you like greece, you will LOVE the new itineraries next year." I then asked him about when to expect the announcement and all he said was, "Very soon."

I'm guessing no CC on the EBTA if that is the case, though.

Oh. Hadn't thought about that.

 

[lbgraves]

Yay Lisa!!!!

I'll be sure to post my quote - after I get picked up off the floor from sticker shock

This will be the first opening day I won't be transferring a reservation maybe I'll be able to relax more and not be blown away by the pricing.

I hadn't thought about that, either - but I'd prefer NYC over CC.

 

[sweetlovin']

If NYC is a stop, maybe one of the port adventures will be Aladdin on Broadway

That will be nice to not have that stress! This is actually the first opening day that we'll be transferring an OBB. We've booked on opening day before, but never transferred a booking.

So is it 8am eastern time on Thursday morning that the phones open?

I'm so thankful for all of the amazing info I've gotten from this thread, and Lisa, I soooo look forward to seeing your thread on Tuesday/Wednesday!!
