Do you book online or call to make your reservation?

Just got off phone with CRO and made May/June '08 reservations with a AAA discount. Saved good bucks and will check back closer to dates for Fl. Resident or Pass Holder discounts.

As soon as the phone was computer answered I started punching in the numbers 1 and 2 and a few #s and in 6 seconds was talking to CM for reservations. No need to wait for all the questions.

Would not have been able to get AAA discount if done online.

Just have to figure out where we have our 35th anniversary dinner.

Each time I have tried to get the AAA discount I have been told there are none available. Personally I think if you have AAA you should get the discount period. I don't think they should select certain sites or whatever they do.

There are so many great places to eat that could be a challenge. A nice challenge though. Good luck.

Just have to figure out where we have our 35th anniversary dinner.

We had dinner at Cinderella's Royal Table, and it was simply AMAZING. Its a little tough getting a ressie, but let them know its your anniversary and you'd like a table with a view of the carousel thats just behind the castle, and if its available...try to reserve it for just before the fireworks start.....thats romance baby!!!! Ooohh, and be carefull....you may fall deeper in love with the prime rib than the wife!!!! That was the best prime rib Ive ever, in my life....IN MY LIFE, had. Some disney foods ok, some is even better...but I couldnt believe this stuff came out of a disney kitchen. Good luck and CONGRATS on the 35 years!!!

Thanks for the heads-up.

My DMIL ordered 2 prime rib dinners for me at our reception because I was a big eater, (she loved it when I came over for dinner), but never got to eat them and boy was she unhappy. Never let me forget it . She was the best MIL in the world.

Have you tried getting in touch with Rhonda our moderator about booking through Dreams Unlimited? They take care of any discounts and you don't have to do anything! It's the best so far--no fuss, no worry (although she keeps sending email reminders on how many weeks we have left to go, but she also give little tips that we didn't know anything about and that's great also.)

Thanks for the recommendation. I didn't realize that until just recently that Rhonda did that. Show how alert I am. Duh!
I will keep that in mind for next time. I usually book land stuff myself and have a local agent take care of our cruises.

Strange you couldn't pay it in full. I had the option of just paying the deposit or paying the whole thing.

Ya my option was pay the deposit or pay the deposit then when I called to pay the balance they charged my card an additional 50 some bucks then credited it back and told me I could not pay anything more till I arrived.
