Oh no! Spring has started to show around here its getting a little warmer and hasn't been as rain/sleet/snowy x
So for all you seasoned cruisers what are your tips for a newbie? x
@mmcxiiad - how great! My DH and Grammy (who will be joining us) are also from Richmond, VA
Great tips so far
It will be the first time my niece has been on a boat so I am worried about weather she will get motion sickness but only time will tell LOL She's usually fine in cars and buses so fingers crossed she will be fine. Is there any particular brand of meds for kids that you would recommend?
I made matching t-shirts for boarding the cruise for us so I can't wait to wear them!
Also my niece wants to bring her princess dresses is this a done thing on the cruises?
So what is everybody most looking forward to?
For me it's the whole cruise experience as its my first. I am looking forward to just relaxing with Disney magic without the hectic rush of the theme parks. I feel like I'm home every time I step on to Main Street USA and I'm hoping a Disney Cruise will give me the same feeling.
For Molly (my niece) it's the kids club LOL She will be 5 when we go but the TA said that some of the things such as do-si-do with snow white is only offer to the younger age and is not always available so I am hoping that shes wrong as that's one of the things shes most looking forward to. x
Woo Hoo! booked our flights last night! Flying into Miami and found a hotel that offers both free airport and cruise port shuttles as well as free breakfast buffet (the way my kids eat this is a big deal). We're going to stay a few days in Miami after the cruise. So excited!!
Why couldn't they leave the Classic ships alone? It's alright to have different things on different ships.[/]
I think the point hisnt that they are trying t make all the ships the same. They are trying to add value to the magic and the wonder. Who would want to pay a premium to go on a Disney cruise to be on an old boat that hasn't been refurbished? It is inevitable that hotel rooms and cruise ships have a decorating lifespan. At a certain point the decor gets old and worn and needs to be replaced. When that time comes do you update with original or new and more modern designs?
Also, there are other areas of the ship that they may have realized need to be updated or has gotten feedback that guest satisfaction is low. These types of updates are vital to the long term draw to the Disney cruise line.

I had posted that link about a page or two back. Looks like more info is starting to trickle out. If the marvel news is true, my son is going to be thrilled!
