May 12, 2007 -- Taking the Magic to the Mediterranean -- 14 day Repo Cruise! Part 2

[AuntyBrat]

Maybe DCL has figured it out!

Oh you ARE funny!!!!

 

[misseulalie]

After hearing that priced fell for Cat 12 cabins and that several of you had your prices lowered. I called Costco and asked for the new price. He went away for a few minutes and then came back any said the lower price was not available after you have made your final payment and applied only to new bookings. I told him that must be an error as I knew several of you have received the discount and we are all past the final payment date.

He went away for a longer time and then came back with our $1500 discount.

I could swear when I first booked my original June 6th Med cruise through Disney they assured me that I would benefit from any price reduction. Does anyone know what the official policy is? Is this a Squeaky Wheel situation?

It should be policy. It was confirmed by a DCL agent a few weeks ago, plus my TA reduced my fare for me as soon as the reduction took place. I didn't even haveto call. (but I did anyway! )

I think when you use a non-Disney travel agent or those that don't specialize in DCL, they don't know the rules.


Good thing I talked you into this trip, huh Kissimmee??? I just saved you $1,500

Have you figures out the price difference bewteen the June 6th cruise and this one? With this price adjustment. We are now $100 less than our original 10 day.

I'll just be SOOOO glad when airfare info comes out on Tuesday. Once I have that set up, I can just have two webwindows running...one for the DIS and one for DCL to see if they drop the price anymore!!!

It's Friday!! On the back patio with a dark rum and coke in very balmy 14C weather in the glorious sunshine. Looks like Spring is here at long last. What a beautiful day. Drop the parents off at the airport this morning for their week long cruise, hit me on the drive home that I will be doing the same thing in 7 weeks time, 49 short day. What a wonderful start to a day that is.

Boss was in town also, had a late lunch meeting with her and then she told us all to go home. Got to love a boss that will pick up lunch and then send you home packing. Glorious start to a weekend.

To top it off I got a start on the door decorations.

Off to lounge in the sun and soak up some rays befor ethey disappear for the evening.

Cheers!!

I am also on a discussion board through CruiseCritic.com, and I am on the rollcall forum for our Carnival Med cruise. They are so non talkative! Nobody seems excited to be going. Nobody discusses pre boarding meets, parties, what they are wearing , what they are packing, what they want to see, do, eat, where they are going, etc. What fun we are going to have!

My small group from Huter's Creek is very excited, I guess we are all Disney Type People......several of us either do work at WDW or have worked there. so I guess that makes us more

FUN

Has anyone gotten their price ajustment directly from DCL?

We booked through DCL and not a TA.

I got mine a couple weeks ago......I called today and she said the one I got was the lowest I can get.....but it's great, so I am not complaining!

IS IT THE WEEKEND YET!!!!!!!!!!!!

ok now I feel better...... Thanks

YES! It's Five O'Clock Somewhere!
Thank god, the Tiki Bar is Open!
Ready for Margatiaville and some Boat Drinks.

Oddman--I think you should be able to get it adjusted having booked directly through DCL. We used t obook WDW directly (before we found our great TA) and were always able to get the price adjustments if we called. It is certainly worth your time to make a phone call.

Pat--Lovely afternoon here as well. Must be nice to have such a great boss. We are preparing a surprise b-day party for a friend for tonight. Fabulous to have such weather to celebrate in.

49 days, 49 days, 49 days until we board that plane. Such a fantastic thought. This will be the first time I have been to Florida since I was 16 that I won't go to the theme parks (first time David or hte kids have ever been down without het parks). That is freaking me out. We'll have to try to get enough of a WDW dose just by lunch at Whispering Canyon. But what will I do without my sweet pretzle from Kring La???? (yes I know--poor little thing doesn't get to do the parks ONLY a two week DCL cruise and a few nights in Barcelona! ). But you other Disney fanatics know how I feel.

Oddman - feel free to join the group. If you go back to the first post on page 143 of this thread, you'll find lots of info about our plans and how to get on the cruise list.

It's official now, I just canceled our cruise.
We found out the birth mother is due May 10th. I will be thinking of all of you while your on vacation. I am hoping we will meet someday on another cruise. I have mentioned to my DH that riding the ship back from california the end of the summer in 08 would be a great "mother's day" gift next year!
I will continue to pop in and really look forward to hearing all about the cruise when everyone get's home.
