Does anyone know if they are doing advance bookings for the kids in the Bibbidi Bobbidi Boutique?

YES! When I was searching for this info earlier this month, here is what I found:http://www.fairytalejourneys.com/20...idi-boutique-offerings-on-the-disney-fantasy/ According to this article, we "should" be able to start booking online "mid-February".

Just did online check in/booking-Palo brunch and tea is sold out for entire cruise But, did get Remy and Palo for dinner! For those interested-port adventures and spa seem wide open at this time.

Does anyone know where we are supposed to enter our flight info? I know I did this in the past, but the form doesn't come up in online booking.

It should come up under your online check-in.....look under pre and post cruise plans. That is where it will ask for your flight info.

were you able to do your online check-in at all last night? I live on the west coast and booking our excursions opened up at 9pm on the 21st, however the online check-in did not open until 3 hours later at midnight. Then it asked me to update all of our passenger info, enter our flight and pre/post cruise plans, and we picked a cruise terminal arrival time.

Thanks MikellaCinderella!

so we booked our excursions today and was happy to get the ones we wanted at st. thomas and st. maarten. however sadly all the cabanas at castaway cay were booked, not too shocking though, but one thing I did notice was when it listed all the sold out ones, cabanas #13 and #16 were not on the list...so this makes me think they didn't release them all at once. I will keep checking back in though and hope someone gives theirs up ;-) did anyone else who got a cabana or who tried to get one notice this too?

Some of the higher number cabanas are held back for concierge guests.

Since Palo brunch seems to be 100% sold out when is our next opportunity to book? Do they still hold some back?

Thanks,
John

I can't wait for this cruise it keeps getting closer and closer. Though I do have a cruise February 16th on the Dream again, so not posting on this thread as much. Once that cruise is done I'll post here more

Nikicares thank you for all the work you have done on the FE list.

I just finished booking my flights and hotel for the trip. Still figuring out what excurions to book, but I can't do that until early Feb. So I still have some time to figure it out. Any suggestions? I love photography, so anything that has opportunity for good photos is good. Also if you have never snorkled before, how hard is it to do? I'm not a strong swimmer, but can float well.
Thanks
Jennifer

I booked my excursion for st thomas...the sea trek helmet dive, and couldn't book palo brunch. I hope i can get that done onboard.

 

[Quicklabs]

Was up at midnight this morning to try to book Palo. SCORE! We got both the Palo brunch and dinner, as well as a Remy dinner. We also booked the Dolphin Encounter in Tortola when we port in St. Thomas. I am beyond EXCITED! After we finished our midnight booking, we were so ramped up, we didn't fall asleep this morning until around 3 a.m. This from a woman who is usually in bed by 9.

Jennifer, I am not a good swimmer, I also have a rare bone condition (so limited mobility and such) and I LOVE to snorkel. It is very simple and you have a life jacket or floatie of some sort.... YOU HAVE TO DO IT! I know you will love it, and if I can do it ANYONE can do it (honestly)!

I have been shut out of brunch twice (now 3 times) and both times I got reservations onboard. The first time I was on a list and was called the night before invititng us. The last time we got the reservation immediately after boarding. Both of those sailings only had one sea day, so since we have three chances/3 sea days we should be able to get a reservation onboard. Here's hoping...

Here is a link that has the merchandise catalog. Hope some of these will still be available for our cruise.

Inaugural Merchandise

There is also an update on the Disney Parks blog showing some shirts and a ball cap.

Cool, thanks! I've never seen a catalog like that! I'm sure the actualy Maiden Voyage stuff will be gone fast, but we sailed the Dream in September and they still had a bunch of "Inaugural Year" merchandise.....well, maybe not after MY sailing, since I purchased a bunch of it! My favorite is the Dream Inaugural Year collector's Mickey ears. I bought those and had Captain Henry sign them. When we went to have him sign the ears, he also signed my dd's autograph book! She says it's her favorite autograph!!

Paid off our cruise Saturday morning.
Completed the cruise check-in early Sunday morning and booked some excursions.

88 days away from our Fantasy Cruise. Time seems to be moving at a quicker pace now!!

We didn't book any on board activities yet.

Dont forget you are not charged for the ship excursions until the cruise is underway but I think you need to cancel excursions two days before boarding if a change is needed.

In a tricky maneuver the "Fantasy" was dragged backwards down the Ems River in Germany and out to Sea! She's on her way!

Is anyone else having trouble with the Disney cruise site?
I am trying to get in to book some more stuff, but I can't get into the section marked "My cruise activities tonight. I wonder if the site is having trouble. Hope it's not just my computer.

Quicklabs,

Maybe just high traffic, I was on my computer so I tried and it didn't let me in the first time but did the second. Good luck.

Hey everyone! I was just curious if any of you are runners? I heard there is a 5K on Castaway Cay the morning we arrive there...I really want to do this, although I was curious if anyone of the seasoned DCL cruisers have done this before?
