Any Cdns book air with the cruise while onboard?

[Lynda Silk]

Hi,
I booked a 4 night cruise for this August when we were on the Wonder last year. I also booked the air at the same time. I wondered when we would get the details re the flights. My understanding is that it will be fairly close to the sailing date. Has anyone else booked the air with the cruise onboard? If so, can you tell me when you received the details, whether it was a direct flight, what airline, etc? Any help would be appreciated! Thanks!

I would call Disney Cruise Line (if you haven't already) if I were you...

How did you pay for the flights? Did you just pay a flat fee and they have to accommodate you within that price range?

I actually can't really help you, BUT, can tell you who will. Have you looked over on the cruisecritic.com boards? They are like Dissers for cruises and there is a board for Disney. I usually spend a lot of time on there when planning a cruise. HTH

I received a total price of about $4300 US onboard, paid a $300 deposit ($100 per person) and that was it. The lady I dealt with on the Wonder said that I would be contacted later about the air arrangements.

Aristocat65, I have been on cruisecritic a lot but didn't even think of that. Thanks for the tip! I'll have to check the Disney board over there as you suggested.

Unless you pay a deviation fee that covers booking outside their air parameters more often than not, the air has at least one connection. They will fine tune it for the fee as well as the fare difference applicable between the air they can offer and the non stop you might want. Sometimes Cruiseline air is decent..sometimes the pits.
