[jeanigor]

Too bad Brandie has actually had to work today...

Oh Mindy- how scary, hope your daughter is okay. let us know.

love all the cool smileys.

just wanted to drop in and say hi- super swamped at work today. like everyday! I guess I should be happy i have a job though, right? i could really use a vacation though......how many days now to go?

 

[DLBDS]

I have a question....

Is it possible to change a passenger after the final payment? Like, if someone decides they don't want to go, can they be replaced with someone else without penalty from DCL? I don't think this will happen. Just want to be prepared in case.

THANK YOU!!

Holy crap!! How did you get up here so fast?!

 

[scarlett873]

You know, something happened to this girl somewhere along the way....she used to be so shy and retiring...

Maybe one too many drops from a tower?

Is it Friday yet???

They are killing me here, absolutely killing me.

Paul or Don, can I borrow a big gun??

I'm going back in.

Good luck...

Paul has the big stuff, but I have plenty of them. Whatcha need? Something that can hit from 1/2 mile away or something semi-auto with lots of ammo?

Hey now...

Are you listening to me???

OH NO!!!!!!

You're not dragging me into your little harem!!

But we're w friendly bunch...

Why is he in such a hurry? Tryin' to cross that road, I guess.

Sorry, Don, I don't play well with others.

Neither do we actually...

Hopefully this is all current and correct:

f you are going on a Disney cruise and think there is ANY chance you may want to go on another Disney cruise in the future, be sure to book your future cruise while you are still onboard the ship. You will receive a 10% discount and an onboard credit for the future cruise! The onboard credit is usually $200 for a 7-night cruise; $100 for a 3-night or 4-night cruise.

Some additional details:

*

There is a future bookings desk on the ship. Check your daily Navigator for times and location.
*

A deposit is required at the time of booking. The exact amount is based on the room category booked, number of persons in the room and the length of the sailing. Generally it is $200 per person for 3-night or 4-night cruises and $250 per person for 7-night cruises in Categories 4-12. For Categories 4-12, the deposit is fully refundable until full payment is due. The deposit is usually $500 per person for a suite (Categories 1-3). If you reserve a suite, your deposit is nonrefundable, but it can be moved to a different date without penalty.
*

You can later change the dates of the future cruise and still keep the onboard booking discount and onboard credit. There is no penalty for making changes to the reservation. For this reason, some people book random future dates, just to hold the discount.
*

You can transfer your onboard reservation to a travel agency and keep the onboard booking discount and onboard credit. However, you generally will NOT get whatever promotional deal the travel agency may be offering (such as Dreams Unlimited Travel onboard credit offer). Also, onboard booking incentives CANNOT be combined with any group discounts organized by a travel agency.
*

You can book as many staterooms for future cruises as you have people in your party. For instance, if you have a family of 5 on the cruise, you can book up to 5 staterooms for future cruises! This is great if you'd like to organize a family reunion cruise, or get a great deal for family and friends.

Thanks AskDon!

I knew my top post count wouldn't last for long...

 

[DLBDS]

You guys are REALLY making it hard for me to stay off of FB. (Well, I have an account there.... but it was ONLY to see the baby Ferris pics.)

 

[jeanigor]

Patience grasshopper. Patience.

 

[DLBDS]

Patience grasshopper. Patience.

I'm not good at that either.

It's lasted a whole lot longer than mine did.

Probably Tracy knows this but maybe somebody else also knows something about booking a cruise while onboard....

I know you can book a cruise onboard and then you get some discounts, but does anybody know exactly what...

What is the discount i thought it is something like 10% off the price and $200 onboard credits id thid correct??

I also can remember that it didn't count for each cat stateroom is this correct??

Most of what was written is correct, but I've made changes where appropriate in red below.

Hopefully this is all current and correct:

You will receive a 10% discount and an onboard credit for the future cruise! The onboard credit is usually $200 for a 7-night cruise; $100 for a 3-night or 4-night cruise. Currently the longer cruises in 2010 are also $200. You will only receive a 10% discount on categories 4-11. Suites and category 12 staterooms do not qualify for discounts.

If you reserve a suite, your deposit is nonrefundable, but it can be moved to a different date without penalty. Currently Disney is offering 1/2 off deposits for onboard bookings. This applies to the categories 4-12. The suites for longer cruises (more than 7 nights) are $800 per person and for 3 or 4 nights are $400 per person. The suites can also be moved to a non-suite, but the cancellation penalties still apply (deposit is non-refundable).
*

You can later change the dates of the future cruise and still keep the onboard booking discount and onboard credit. There is no penalty for making changes to the reservation. For this reason, some people book random future dates, just to hold the discount. The discount/credits apply to the cruise that you go on, not the original one booked. For instance, if you book a 4 night category 11 you get $100 and 10% off, but if you move it later to a category 12 on a 7 night, you'll get $200 but no discount.
*

You can transfer your onboard reservation to a travel agency and keep the onboard booking discount and onboard credit. However, you generally will NOT get whatever promotional deal the travel agency may be offering (such as Dreams Unlimited Travel onboard credit offer). This varies by agency and should not be assumed that you won't get the offer. You can ask that a reservation booked onboard be booked with the travel agency at the time of booking and it is not considered a transfer.Also, onboard booking incentives CANNOT be combined with any group discounts organized by a travel agency.Group discounts cannot be combined with onboard booking offers either so this isn't an issue.
*

You can book as many staterooms for future cruises as you have people in your party. For instance, if you have a family of 5 on the cruise, you can book up to 5 staterooms for future cruises! This is great if you'd like to organize a family reunion cruise, or get a great deal for family and friends.you can only book extra rooms for people cruising on the same date as you. In other words, I can't book a room for me on 8/22 and a room for my sister for 10/10 unless I am also booking a room for me on 10/10.

I have a question....

Is it possible to change a passenger after the final payment? Like, if someone decides they don't want to go, can they be replaced with someone else without penalty from DCL? I don't think this will happen. Just want to be prepared in case.

THANK YOU!!

You can change them to someone else but there is a fee to do this. It is $50 and they can be changed up until 3 days prior to the cruise.
