We had a debate on this thread a week or so back about pre paid tips, worth looking at this post.

Now please be aware the Daily Mail is not the most accurate newspaper in the UK,-In fact if there was a poll on newspaper accuracy, they would probably be in the bottom ''one.''

Yes its a fault with the system and it will not work so take it out of your wish list, and book it by 'toggling' down to St Thomas on the ports of call.

The tours come up with all the ports, with Castaway Cay at the top, but for easy access, click the port name.

If the wish list was ok, on the right side there is a toggle for Wish list only.

THANKYOU !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
We'll try at our best tomorrow !!!

Kritter, Jen and anyone else who knows ----!!
Technically, we have a "Grand Gathering" number because we'll be in WDW with my SIL and family. When I looked at the GG site, it seemed like it was mainly devoted to GG dinner specials. Are there any other GG options that I missed? (My SIL and family are definitely NOT Disney freaks like we are - they kind of think we're a little nuts...)

I have to take my Dad to the airport at 5AM on Sunday morning so Sean wil going to stay up til midnight to try and get us the Palo reservations. we have our fingers crossed that we won't be closed again!!

Have a great weekend everyone

Jude -
I don't think that there are any other benefits...just thought it would be fun to do a GG with other Disney freaks but we do not have any other Disney freaks to share it with (except all of you on the DIS )!

Tell Sean good luck! Palo is the only thing we are trying to book. We would love to get a brunch and a dinner. We are doing excursions on our own so we do not need to worry about those.

I feel lucky that we can log in at 11:00 - I am not a late night person so that isn't too bad for me.

Can't wait to hear tomorrow what everyone got!

We are excited to be going on our first Disney cruise. My husband and I will be traveling with our four children and meeting up with my sister and brother-in-law at WDW and then on to the cruise. We can't wait!

Welcome!!!

Sounds like you have a great crew for your 1st cruise! We have a web site for our cruise to help us plan and meet one another. If you are interested, send me a message and I can tell you how to access it!

A reminder for thoose booking tonight.

I posted this before, a thread on the main forum reminded me,

If you requested PLA rotation your character breakfast will be 8.15am (main) 9.30am (late) On Thursday.

So if you want to go to that, think on the impact on Palo Brunch at 10.30am.

( APL will have CB Sunday and LAP will have it Monday same times)

Thanks Andrew, yes I remeber that from 2006 and will try a differant sea day for brunch this time

Its a bit difficult 8.15 >9.15 Character breakfast, then Brunch 10.30, you wouldnt be able to walk afterwards................

 

[PoohJen]

I would really like PLA. In the past I have been able to request rotation (once for REAS, the other times I don't remember how/why). Can I still do this? How?

TIA!

You can request via TA or direct to DCL if booked direct, but it is a request....

Cat 1>3 can request to concierge.

Thanks Andrew! We will all be up and trying our luck!

Have a great night everyone!

 

[andeeNjoel]

Thanks for the good luck wishes and for all the helpful information over the past several weeks everyone!

We are having a nice cup of joe to help us stay up for the midnight reservation opening. After the GoofyHills get back from the ball game, we will make our final battle plan for tonight. Can't wait!!!!!

Think we will try to reserve quite a bit- Palo Dinner, Brunch, Tea, stingrays, and parasailing! For now we are planning to DIY both Tortola (Brewers Bay) and St. John (Trunk Bay).

Have a great night everyone!

Duty-Free Alcohol

I am wondering if there is a list of the duty-free alcohol that is available on board? We may bring some wine on but I am wondering what our options are for purchase once we get on board.

To save on $$$, we are thinking a nice drink in the room before dinner or before going out would cut down on what we spend.
