We did a b2b this year to Norway and then to Norway/Iceland on the Disney Magic.

The completest in me wants to see each ship (as we've done all the parks around the world) so we reshopped our 2016 cruises and booked the 7 night eastern on the Fantasy and 4 night on the Dream.

We spent 3 weeks on the Magic this year and by day 6 I was really only just starting to relax.

I was toying with the idea of cancelling the Dream res and doing a back to back western and eastern Fantasy cruise.

What would you recommend? Is the Dream worth seeing over a back to back on the Fantasy? - I'm not interested in Nassau, more just seeing the ships.

Thanks guys
 
We like longer cruises too. I would do b2b on the Fantasy. Fit the Dream into your plans another time.
 
I agree with PP. For only a 4-nighter, wouldn't be worth moving ships for me.
 
B2B on Fantasy as The ships are so similar only with some plus ups on the Fantasy from learnings from the Dream.

We solved the problem by doing the 4 night Dream cruise just prior to doing the B2B Fantasy cruises. Made it seem more like a longer cruise with an overnight (well, 2 night) port stop between the Dream & Fantasy cruises.
 
Fantasy back to back, we did it and you go east and west different ports and seven days, dream too short your nearly if before you start.
 
Thanks guys. We've been checking out the B2B Fantasy. Other option to throw a spanner in the works is head back to Disneyland before we fly home. I want to do everything and there's not enough time!
 
Sounds like a great time no matter what you do. The Dream Fantasy B2B would allow you to see the other ship. The Dream will have received some upgrades and will be more inline with the Fantasy, minus some of the stage shows and the new Candy store being added as part of the drydock later this year.
 
Well, depends truly on time and what you can afford. Heck, do b2b on both.
 
Fantasy. Even better if you are able to keep same stateroom host and dining staff. We loved that on our 14 night PC cruise the staff really really got to know us well.
 
Easy choice, Fantasy B2B every time! 14 day cruise all different ports except double dip at Castaway Cay! Perfect. Keep same cabin, no need to do any packing or moving for second leg. You can really relax. Not worth all the hassle to move over to the Dream for 4 nights. Save the Dream for next year so you have something to look forward to.
