Hi! With this upcoming cruise, I thought I’d search for a thread! With no luck, I decided to start one to become familiar with others!

Hello! First cruise in almost ten years! First time doing a Christmas (Hannukah for us) cruise! That check-in process was new and stressful, but we got Group 2! I'm wondering what other things have changed with DCL in the past decade. Anyone have some tips for a returning cruiser?

We booked VGT and got out room assignment with an upgraded extended balcony!

We weren't particularly interested in any of the available excursions. Are there any can't-miss activities at the ports?

we don't usually do the DCL excursions. We're doing a resort day pass in Jamaica, a half day boat charter in Grand Cayman and cabanas at Chankanaab in Cozumel.

bring lanyards to store your room keys, and have a blast! our kids (4, 9) LOVE the kids club.

Where did you find the half day boat charter in Grand Caymen from? Looking for something fun to do there. Thanks!

It's "Disney fantasy merrytime cruise December 17th to 24th 2022", can't post the link here but use that as your search term.

Fish extenders have been closed for a couple of weeks now.

Oh okay, it must have been taken down now then! Oh man! We just learned about it because my younger sister just got back from a cruise! So, is there no way to be added in or not at this point?

The group is def still up and is pretty lively! No way to be added in at this point but some folks are just bringing stuff to pixie dust informally!

 

[bH2022]

That is so kind! I have searched and searched and several other cruise groups are coming up in my Facebook but not ours. Is there anyone that can send me an invite link to join the group! We definitely want to join in so we can see what’s going on! It’s our kids first cruise and our first Disney one too!
