Can you believe it?! When we first booked, tehre were over 500 days until cruise time! Now it's right around the corner--time to get busy and finish all the preparations!

I called today and put some $$ onto my onboard account. I love having all of my spending money already there when I board. It feels like 'free' money that way.

OK.... you can add money now to your onboard accounts? WOW!!! I could add a little at a time and not be so shocked on boarding day.

I'm booked through DVC. I would assume that I would call DVC who would call DCL and handle that for me.

So did you use your debit card or a gift card or something else?

I booked through DVC too, but I just called DCL and told them that I wanted to purchase onboard credits for my account. They asked for my reservation number and debit card number, and it was taken care of...less than 5 minutes and I have a good chunk of spending money waiting for me already! I do this on every cruise--since I put it on there ahead of time, it almost feels like 'free' money when we sail!

Did anyone else request a favorite server? We called and asked for our (Kabello Mosaine) and was just wondering if anyone else did.

If you have been on a Disney cruise before, do you have a favorite server?

 

[Stephieann]

only server i can remember is our head server, Simone. He was our head server 2 times on the Wonder. The other servers we had were great but i dont remember the names!!!

 

[Blanche_Neige]

I sure hope we get great servers this time and hope we do not get the same as last time, if so I will request a change of servers if that is possible

It's been a long time, but you can count this clan "in" still.

I noticed another board for cruise chat. Can someone PM info on this?

TIA

Everything is fine. My DH's job got in the way. We are still going on a cruise, we just might be going on one in September.

Hello everyone! My brother and his then-wife will be on this cruise for part of their honeymoon. I'm sort of the honeymoon planner, being the Disney-obsessed person of the family. They are doing this cruise followed by a stay at Saratoga Springs. They will be in stateroom 10502. Any ideas for honeymooning on the Dream?
