For those of you still on hold, don't give up. When I got through, the price the real person gave me was less than what the website was quoting. Still higher than at 5am, though. At least we're in. I feel like I've accomplished a great feat, but I'm truly exhausted now.


This is mildly surprising...

... and on the other hand ... it is NOT surprising. So, is there in fact any orderly reason to how this is all unfolding? Maybe you just got lucky and when you got through something held at a lower price was ... released... and your CM selected for rates at the RIGHT moment to capture this lower rate?

Well, I gues we'll never be able to comfirm "how" or investigate "why" this annomally came to pass.

Good for you though in secureing a slightly more attractive fare then what you might have expected.

muted cheers~!
 
i think i'm losing patience now.....playing It's a Small World and i'm substituting obsenities for all the words!
 
Oh Lisa!
I thought I was going to be able to pirate the 6000th post so I could finally be on a list somewhere. ugh
Oh you..

OMG! :lmao: And it is taking a lot to make me laugh today.:rotfl2: :rotfl2: :rotfl2: (this and Andy's poop :rotfl: )
 
Oh no...

I decided to brave the wait time to check on the port listing. (Is Aruba gone for sure? What about Cartegena?)

We thought Beauty & the Beast was bad....

but...now...theyre playing...



Its A Small World


and they just interrupted the song with the "thank you for waiting" announcement. That song is going to be stuck in my head for weeks now. :scared1:

Everybody sing along with me.... :laughing:
 
Just got off the phone with my mom, she told me to take her name off our ressie when the quote comes in. She really wants to see us get on this cruise, especially since it was going to be DD's high school graduation gift from her mom and I. Here's still wishing!!!
 
Jeff: That is awful! Why do people do things like that? It is such a sin that it has ruined things for your family. It has been lovely to learn so many things about you and your family through your postings: the wedding, your nickname, etc. I hope we will still hear from you!

Did Buddy Bear drop out?

I'm so glad to know I was not alone in Small World misery!
 
I can not even get to a point to be put on hold, I've been trying for just under 4 hours and all I get is busy signals.
HELP!!! I'm going CRAZY!!!

Try to calm down.... even if feels like you should not otherwise. Some folks are getting some odd luck with live quotes lower then what is reported on line.

I wish I could say more which might really help but we're largely powerless. :confused3

We are really sending our hopes for you (and everyone else) though!
 
POST SUMMARY 5501 - 6000:

- The stress of trying to book this cruise begins at 6:23 am on 1/31/07.
- Pirates gathered supplies of protein bars and caffiene to take on the DCL phonelines.
- Pirate children were being pushed out the door with a bottle of milk, a box of cereal and the words "You know how this works! Now scram!"
- 8 am and the madness began. Shock with prices online and unbelievable hold times. Prices started rolling in.
- Mary nabbed a deal for a room for 2 adults & 2 kids at $ 4,006,748.21!!!
- Lots of people waiting on the phone a LONG time. Resies are coming in slowly from the phone & online.
- The pirates were ready to rally and kill the beast themselves!
- Someone booked the Roy Suite!!! PARTY TIME!!!
- The beast was killed finally and the Tiki room party took over.
- Sk8 has lost it...There are 563 days 'til we sail. That means I am paying the low-low price of just $12.10 a day to hang out with a bunch of pirates for the next 18 months!
- Prices jumping higher & higher every hour.
- We have 15 months before the Palo resie rush at 90 days.
- It's gotten really ugly. :(
- Somehow lbgraves snagged the 6000th post!!! the Captain 2 Wenches 4
 
Excuse my silly question for the day...........Do you know if you transfer do you lose the DCL obc or do you get both? Guess it might be just wishful thinking on my part.:wizard:


If you transfer your reservation to DU, you will not loose the onboard credit.
and discount you already have... but gain an onboard credit. :woohoo:

We have done this many off times! :wizard:
