[TJFrack]

Looking forward to getting to know you all!

So I pretty much have all my shore excursions lined up that I want to do... now just to wait until the booking window opens LOL

Anyone doing pre/post cruise plans? We are flying into Copenhagen a few days ahead of the cruise and touring around there.

 

[GrantFam]

We're on our way home from a weekend at Disneyland and are even more excited about our cruise now!

We don't have concrete plans yet, but will probably fly into Copenhagen the day before and fly home the day after we get back to port. We're also considering flying to Oslo for a day or two, then to Copenhagen the day before the cruise leaves.

Cancelled cruise today. Have fun.

Hi everyone, I called DCL a couple of weeks ago to ask them about their prices for Copenhagen pre-cruise hotels. I am sharing what I learned, just in case anyone else was interested:

May 26-28 (2 nights, 2 adults)
Copenhagen Marriott - $954 total, including taxes
Tivoli Hotel - $542 total, including taxes

I am not sure if the prices have changed or if DCL will be adding more hotels (I thought Nimb and Radisson Blu were options, but DCL said no...). Also, DCL transfers each way is $40.

My husband and I are thinking about staying at the Hilton airport hotel before the cruise because it sounds like catching the metro/train/buses into and around town is convenient, and on cruise day we can catch the Disney transportation from the airport to the ship. We are still deciding, though. I would like to stay in town, but a lot of the moderately priced hotels do not have A/C, which many people on tripadvisor complain about.

 

[GrantFam]

Thank you for the information on the hotel rooms and transfers to the port in Copenhagen! We've been doing a little research, too, but are still deciding whether we will fly to Oslo for two days before which would change our departure date from 5/25 to 5/23.

 

[TJFrack]

Thanks for the pricing Info. We are planning to stay either at the Hilton Airport or Marriott. We are hoping to use points, but can't book until 200 days out.
