Thanks in advance

Darla - just go to the DCL website and under reservations there is a link that says check reservations. Put in the confirmation number you should have been given yesterday and your phone number and it will bring up your reservation. Checked ours this morning.

Just a reminder that we have a thread over on the cruise meets board click here to get to cruise meets thread

The cruise meets forum is great for getting to know people and talk about things that might seem a little off topic on the DVC forum. Like what to do in Key West, what to wear to dinner, etc.

Hope you all come join us as we count down to this great cruise!

Congratulations to those of you that made it through! Yesterday was the last day of our WDW vacation which made it tough to make a concerted effort to get through. We finally did about 2:00 p.m. EST (while waiting in line for Who Wants to be a Millionaire)but learned it was sold out already so we're on the wait list. Maybe they'll think about a second member's cruise next year if the demand was great enough???

RuthnPaul, I remember from the last member cruise that they did have rooms open up. I'm sure when school calendars come out for next year that there might be some cancellations as well. Here's hoping the wait list comes through for you!

DH and I are on the wait list as well. This will give us enough time to really decide if we want to use the points. We are doing our 1st cruise 4/03/05.

I am so excited even if I am a VERY late poster.

I called right at 8 am and got thru on the first try with NO wait and the call dropped!!! Hit redail and connencted again!! (I called on the 407 line the 800 was busy!) YEAH!!! I got the Navigator's Verandah I wanted. I was done about 8;20 and I just let out a scream (lucky all the kids were in the other cars!)

I was so nervous! I was driving to the Girl Scout camp and I was very afraid my cell would drop the call prior to me getting finished, but I made it!

Thanks for all the suggestions. I had a piece of paper with all my info and went out and purchased a hands free attachment for my cell since I knew I had to do this while driving!

I can't check my reservation.... I can't write and drive so I have to wait on the confirmation letter!

I'm glad to hear this. I admit that I wondered about the person who was going to the Girl Scout camp, I forgot who it was!

Congratulations!

Bobbi

Thanks for thinking about me.

I have been reading the thread and it made me nervous for everyone! WHEW probably glad I wasn't here in person!

OMG....yes, I remember you Lauretta! That first DVC meet that we went to, was one of the best! It's going to be great seeing you again! Can't wait for our cruise!

Mary, thanks for the words of encouragement! Since it sounds like the cruise sold out just prior to our getting through to MS, it seems like we should be fairly high on the waitlist! Now, it's a matter of deciding whether we want to wait it out or book a different cruise.

Ever since we missed the 1st DVC cruise I told my husband the next time they have one we are going. I was on the phone all morning trying to get thru long story short I finally got thru about 1pm..the cats I wanted were sold out so I booked a cat 9 ON DECK 1. went over to Dave's web site and he said it was a noisy room 1062.! I am so excited about going but I want to have a great time too. is there a chance for an upgrade if people cancel or do I have to go on a waitlist? didn't I read that if you go on the waitlist you have to pay a 75.00 dollar fee? I keep telling myself look on the bright side we will be off the ship first at CC..I REALLY DON'T WANT TO CANCEL so I am asking for my friends that would be you guys all knowledgeable(sp) to give me your advice..thanks Marianne.

 

[WDWLVR]

Marianne,

Can't offer any first-hand advice sorry. I would suggest you post a question over on the main cruise board. Something along the lines of "Anyone stay in room 1062?" in the subject. I'm sure that some past cruisers have stayed there and will be able to give you a first hand opinion. Good luck!

Hey guys - lets start a new thread on the Cruise Meet Board. This is where we can begin our planning stuff. I will be glad to put a link to it "Stuck" at the top of the DVC Board.

I think we will get alot of support over there too.

 

[WDWLVR]

Robin - great idea - there is already a thread started.

here is the link

Thanks for posting a link at the top here. I do think people will find lots of great cruise answers over there!

 

[TnRobin]

Link at the top now. I say we blow this joint and begin the PARTY

We were flying out Saturday to OKW, and got stuck on the Tarmack at O'hare Airport for hours due to weather (don't you love flying).

At any rate, missed it by 5 minutes the CM said. So I waitlisted, for category 7 and higher (7,8,9 etc) for 3.

My Guide, whom I saw at SSR, who works the cruises said I had a good chance of getting on..... But I keep thinking, this isn't a regular cruise, it's a member cruise (ie fanatics).

I mean, who would cancel????

So trying to decide if I should hope and wait, or go ahead, and use the points for a trip elsewear (had rented to have some

Goldi

FYI - At OKW 1BR, and the everything is lovely.
