Anyone think there will be special merchandise onboard for the Baltic cruise? On the repo cruise, I got 2 different t-shirts. One was our cruise specific and one was just for both repo cruises. They also had pins from the ports and other stuff.

I hope there will be something, not too extortionate. A pin or something is perfectly adequate. I saw some of the PC repo pins in the Character Warehouse in Orlando when we were there in December - do you remember the hassle of forms, ballots etc????

DCL has learnt a lot on this, the first Panama cruise WB in 2005, had a riot, for Pins T shirts etc, people Camping out outside the shops of it. They swapped to a stateroom request on embarkation in 2005 for the EB Panama.

We have seen ballots etc, on the EB 2008, I refused to go into the Ballot, with two kids I wanted it guaranteed, I would get two full sets.

I gave ''Feedback'' and had two full sets sold to me,

To be honest there are a lot of people out there who do not purchase PIN's T shirts etc, so there should be enough all around.

I think now, that our ship isn't 'full' we have had a high amount of transfers and cancellations, and we might see an offer after the PIF date this weekend.

On other Baltic cruises there are waitlists for Cat 3, I am not aware that we have that on ours and suspect, they are not all sold. Maybe a lot of people hoping for a port paid/upgrade. Note since the weekend the Cat4's have sold out again but there are 5/6 10/11/12 still on sale.

I like! However the Disney Magic log in the lower left corner covers up some of the words making a few of them hard to read. Made me think through what the missing letters might be - and me thinking today is baaaaad.

Brent, Well, firstly you appear to be the subject of some PM' correspondence I am having, so you better confirm your stateroom number to me.

Next thoose rotating banners, yes, the time indicators, are clashing with the writing, but they have been there for a couple of months.

I was referring to my cruise history/future line......

 

[Andrew DEREK UK]

hoping there is

DCL will never pass on a chance to make a buck or three........

 

[Andrew DEREK UK]

OK

Might sound a very silly question but..

Can someone in East coast USA, post and tell me the time there??

Here it is 8.25pm, I think you are now at 4.25pm re your change in the clocks???

DIS time if I long in shows local time, If I log out it says something like 3.25pm, and I do not think thats correct.

The answer....


Is a 14 night RCCL Europe cruise booked for 2011, NO DCL!!! Suite booked.

I am sure they have changed this overview.....(DCL Website)



A Disney Cruise Line 12-Night Northern European Capitals Cruise takes you to wondrous ports of call across Europe—including Dover, England; Oslo, Norway; Copenhagen, Denmark; Warnemünde, Germany; St. Petersburg, Russia; Tallinn, Estonia; Helsinki, Finland and Stockholm, Sweden—and offers the added pleasures of 4 full and luxurious days at sea aboard the Disney Magic along the way.

Day 1 – Embarkation Day
Your voyage begins as you cast off from breathtaking Dover, England—the merry little town that is known as the "Gateway to England." Here, you'll discover a world of charming shops, cafés and cobbled lanes. Upon embarkation, be a part of the exciting Adventures Away! Sail-Away Celebration deck party, where you and your family can dance to songs along with Disney Characters and Crew Members.

Day 2
Day 2 is spent at sea, making it the perfect time to explore the ship and discover the almost endless array of fun-filled onboard activities and venues—including the various live shows, spa services, nightclubs, youth clubs and dining.

Day 3
Drop anchor in the one-time land of the Vikings, Oslo, Norway, and explore a city as rich in culture as it is timeless. Behold real Viking long ships at the Viking Ship Museum and stroll through grand ballrooms at the Royal Palace. Shop and sightsee at the Karl Johans Gate District and Aker Brygge before exploring the Munch Museum, home to "The Scream" by Edvard Munch.

Day 4
Spend Day 4 in Copenhagen, Denmark, a city known for cobblestone streets, palaces and gardens. Tour Rosenborg Castle—constructed as a summer home for royalty in 1606 for royalty—or Amalienborg Palace. While there, be sure not to miss the Royal Library, a famous tourist spot brimming with age-old treasures, or Strøget, arguably the city hotspot for shopping.

Day 5
Make your way to the "Gateway of Berlin" known to all as Warnemünde in Germany on Day 5, where you are invited to climb the historic Warnemünde lighthouse and tour both the Local History Museum and Bad Doberan Monastery. The New Market Square in nearby Rostock includes a row of restored 15th- and 16th-century houses.

Day 6
Discover more of the fun onboard during another exciting day at sea. Kids will surely want to goof around at Disney's Oceaneer Club, while teens can socialize at The Stack. Adults may opt for a massage at the Vista Spa & Salon and everybody can come together to enjoy a Broadway-caliber, Disney live show in the evening.

Day 7 and Day 8
Arrive in Russia's second largest city—St. Petersburg—the very next day and wander historic Nevsky Prospekt, Russia's most famous street, featuring magnificent cathedrals, palaces and historic landmarks. Snap pictures of St. Isaac's Cathedral and the Church of Our Savior on Spilled Blood, and explore Peter & Paul Fortress, known for high-profile prisoners including Dostoyevsky.

Day 9
Spend Day 9 of your cruise docking in Helsinki, Finland or Tallinn, Estonia, depending on itinerary selected. Blending big-city excitement and small-town hospitality, Helsinki is a picturesque port of call that is home to Lutheran Cathedral, Senate Square and the Church in the Rock. While there, explore Helsinki's archipelago that surrounds the city and the Suomenlinna sea fortress.

Boasting charming town squares in gothic architectural opulence, Tallinn, Estonia is a city overflowing with charm. Wander the resplendent quarters of the 18th-century Kadriorg Palace before touring the 13th-century Toompea Castle, still in use today. Treasure hunters will want to explore Lower Old Town, known for its trendy boutiques, cafés and street vendors.

Day 10
Dock in picture-perfect Stockholm, Sweden, home to 100 art museums, high-end shopping and unbridled architectural beauty. Wander Gamla Stan, the city's oldest section—featuring Stockholm Palace and the Tyska kyrkani church—before touring the Vasa Ship Museum and Stadshuset. No visit would be complete with a stop at Nordiska Kompanie, the city's largest department store.

Day 11 and Day 12
Enjoy 2 final days at sea, where you and the entire family can come together once again to discover anything you may have missed onboard or to rediscover old favorites.

Day 13 – Disembarkation Day
The next morning, return to Dover, England, content in the vacation memories that can only be had on a Disney cruise, where exquisite dining, unique entertainment and recreation, and legendary service seamlessly come together to create a getaway unlike any other.

The time of your post was at 3:28 central time so would have been 4:28 Eastern. I will send you my stateroom as soon as I get home and find the paperwork
