March 17, 2014 Magic Cruise Meet

[tamrob]

Count us in! I just switched from the Fantasy to this cruise with back to back with the one before it ! I am so excited!!! We love the Magic, we did b2b Mediterranean cruise this summer and it was amazing! Can't wait to see her after the dry dock! This will be our 6th Disney cruise, we become gold on the one before so that is pretty exciting it will be four of us - me, DH, our son who will be 16 at the time and our daughter who is 13! The kids have no idea, this will be a Christmas surprise

Does this mean you are going on the March 14, 2014 too? If so, we are too!!! Our son will be turning 15 in April and our daughter will be 13. This will be our first b2b, but #4&5. Second time on the Magic.

AWESOME!!! We're super excited for the b2b. Are you going to be changing rooms? I'm a little nervous about the transition but have heard Disney makes it awesome. We were told that we would have to pack our room up and take our bags off, but I've read that you can leave them in your room for the second cruise. How was it for you? We have the same cabin on both cruises.

We have the same room on this b2b, so we won't have to move or pack the bags! On the last one, we had to move, but the transition was really smooth. We packed our bags and left them in the room. The housekeeping team then moved them to our new room and by 11:00 we had access to the new room and was able to unpack. So if you have the same room, you don't have to worry at all , you won't have to pack the bags or anything like that. The only thing is that they don't won't people going back and forth in the rooms while they are trying to set the rooms up for the new guests...... Do you know what floor your are on? I was just checking on the DCL website and seems that this cruise is almost sold out!

We are on 6th. Did you have to leave the ship and go through customs? We found the Magic less crowded than the Fantasy. Do you all do the fish extender?

We are in 6548. Did you have to leave the ship and go through customs? We found the Magic less crowded than the Fantasy. Do you all do the fish extender?

We did have to leave the ship. We had to meet at Sessions in the morning and were escorted off the ship, then checked in again and about 30 min later we were back on the ship. Hopefully this one will be as easy and smooth as the last one! We have never done the fish extenders

Hi! DH and I are newbies and trying to decide btwn this ship and the same itinerary on the Dream the day before. Any thoughts on pros/cons? Thnx

We did the dream in Feb and it was wonderful. But since we are going during spring break this year we made the decision for the smaller ship since there should be smaller lines and less people. I have to be in DC for a conference the week before and I am looking forward to relaxing more. We aren't even planning on getting off the ship in Nassau since we did that last year (I lost my drivers license there in Feb).

Depending on what you are looking for would give you the best ship for you. I had been excited about the renos but no that seems to be a negative towards the magic. Personally which ever you choose you will be happy!!!

Hello!
DD (15) and I just decided to take a girls trip for spring break, so we are all booked and paid! We're sailing this summer on the Fantasy with DH and DS who have never been on Disney before. But this cruise is just for us. We love the Magic, and are anxious to see her new changes!
