First I will apologize to the moderators & others who are sick to death of explaining the $99 deal!
However, we were on the Magic in January 2002. We did not take the cruise in January planning to take advantage of the deal, we cruised then because we were planning a vacation.
We "justified" the airline tickets, 2 days at WDW, and the $99 cruise as our 5th year anniversary present and we left DD at home this time. I am an at-home mom so this was a stretch for us, especially with Christmas coming!
Well, we just returned from our $99 cruise and if they EVER offer anything like this again, WE WILL BE THERE! Even with last minute notice!!! It was great to be able to know where everything was and what we wanted to do with so little time!
