December 10, 2009 3 Night Bahamian Cruise

[DLW8]

Yes, I only fly non-stop from CT to FL. The difference in price is neglible and I don't want a layover on a flight that takes only 2 hrs 45 minutes!!!

Both SW and Delta have directs, but Delta's returns are at 10:25 AM or 5:40 PM for direct. The morning flight might be hard to make and I don't want to sit around all day and get home after 9 when the kids need to go to school the next day (since we pulled them out for the trip itself). That is my only issue with the curise and it coming hom on a Sunday...

The DCL cruising timing/days is why we went with the 4/3 (land/sea) versus the 3/4. The 3/4 is Thursdsay to Thursday...that would be more days out of school for the kids...I'd rather save that for another Disney trip. Hoping to rebook onboard for a 7 night (if we all like it and no one is sea sick) for 2010

...I'm just impatient in waiting to finish booking my stuff. Plus, my friend just bookd WDW for her b irthday in June 2009 so I'm a little jealous that she's going in just a few months and I'm still waiting for 9 more

 

[DLW8]

well, we have broken the 9 month mark....

Has anyone else decided to join us on this early December cruise? If not, guess we'll have the whol ship to ourselves!!

My husband and I are going to try for this one too using the $99.00 offer. We were on the same cruise as DMMarla.

I wanted to get back to WDW while it was decorated for the holidays so we planned on going early December. Then they offered the $99 deal. Perfect timing!

We've never been on the Wonder and I'm looking forward to it.

Did I meet you on the cruise I totally forget if I did I am so sorry, but hope you had a great cruise.

And like you I want to go to WDW when is it decorated for the holidays so prefect time. Went in December 2005, but only went down to see a concert didn't go to any parks so didn't see it decorated that's why we picked this cruise. I'm looking forward to going on the Wonder have been 2 times and been on the Magic 5 times

No, we didn't meet. I met Dave on one of the islands. Picked him out from his pictures. We had a wonderful time. Now I'm thinking of maybe doing a 4 day before this one and making a week out of it. I'm so confused!

This was our fourth time being on the Magic, but like I said, never on the Wonder. I'm so excited! I wish I had thought of this earlier though, I would have booked while on board.

I'm excited to say that my family will be joining you on this cruise. We are doing the land and sea, and will be staying at the Polynesian. It has been almost 9 years since we cruised with Disney. This time we will be bringing our 8yr old dd and our 3yr old ds. The kids are super excited to go on "Mickey's boat" and I can't wait to see their faces.

 

[29apr00]

So anyone a good photographer? Want to give up their CC day and photograph my vow renewal!??

We are doing the same....Poly and the cruise. I can't wait!!!

My kids will be almost 8 when we go (one boy, one girl)....they are excited to head back to Disney (went for the first time in January 2008) and to cruise. None of us have cruised before, so we are hoping it will go off without a hitch.

 

[tevagirl]

Hello! My husband and I are booked for this cruise. I'm very excited. We have been on the Magic but not the Wonder and I can't wait to see it decorated for the holdays!

 

[29apr00]

Hi Tevagirl! Welcome aboard! Looks like we are getting a few new people!

maybe we should make a list of who and how many will be interested in a FE exchange? I found the cutest one that i'm going to attempt to make. Yeah, that'll happen.

Anyway - I'm Jennifer, and we'll have 2 kids (DD - 6 and DS - 3) and they would love to do an exchange!

 

[LD NURSE]

Hi I am Karrie and I'll be traveling with my DS 12--who will be GLAD to help me with FE!!!Oh, and my husband--who will not. Grump!

We are doing land and sea at Poly!! And for all of you guys thinking about starting your vacation a day earlier...say Dec 5th...That just happens to be Walt's birthday!!!What a wonderful day to start a vacation!!!

 

[29apr00]

Hi Karrie, yeah, my DH won't be helping with the FE either.

Great info about Walt's Bday! We are actually celebrating a baby's 1st birthday that day with some friends who will be at WDW but not the ship, so it'll be an extra special bday celebration!
