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

[gydell]

So can we use the GB Pound?

 

[gydell]

Boy is my computer acting up!

It looks like only the B2B'rs are getting the DVD because it pertains to the med ports. Sorry guys, it does include Barcelona, that's why I thought you may have it.

Anyone with the DVD, could you post specifics? (title, description, anything!). I emailed DCL to ask for one and they say it does not exist (!!!). I'd like to write back and try again. Thanks so much!

Cupcake

p.s. Here's the e-mail:

Thank you for your e-mail.

All the information for the sailings from Barcelona, Spain are found on our website. We do not have a DVD for the Mediterranean sailings.

I hope this information has been helpful. If you require further assistance in planning your visit, please feel free to contact us.

We look forward to sailing with you! Have a Magical Day!

ATTN ALL WB 2008 PANAMA CANAL CRUISERS!!!!

i want us to have a mini meet sometime on this cruise...please pm me with your name and stateroom so i can organize this...i think it will be fun to meet some other future cruisers!!!

What about those of us on the Eastbound Panama Canal cruise?? I know there has to be more than just me?

 

[Michelle2]

I have another question for any of you.
I am truly heartbroken, the Cadiz equestrian school was available as soon as I signed up for our cruise, but when I was going to book it (shame on me for leaving it too long), it was gone.

Am I completely out of luck??? Is there a chance I might still be able to do it? I called DcL and they said that there is no wait list for excursions until you get on the boat...by then it might be too late. Has anyone seen something open back up??

Is there a way to do it on our own?? I am so sad....

i figure y'all will be too busy for a meet because you'll be trying ot keep up with your thread!!!

 

[txaggie94gigem]

okay...what is up with the DIS lately...it keeps going down and running REALLY SLOW!!!!

Debbie...we gave up our cat 11 stateroom and went to cat 12 GTY to save $1600...so i will let you know our cabin when we have one!!!!

 

[gydell]

txaggie94gigem - How did you switch this late in the game? I just checked and we can save over $1700 if we switch to a 12 from an 11. Wonder if the other cats will go down anymore like the 12 did?

 

[txaggie94gigem]

gydell...

i just checked last night on DCL for prices (because the DIS was down and nothing else to do...) and noticed the cat 12 had dropped again...i emailed my TA and she rebooked us this morning....ADVICE from another DISer that I did not do...have your TA transfer all your Palo/excursion ressies too!

that did not happen for us and i was able to rebook everything except Palo brunch...i will have to rebook onboard...i was able to keep my tips paid and $250 OBC

my TA said DCL will credit my credit card back about $1600 within about 4 weeks (why can they take payments and they go through that day but refunds take forever!!! ) so i should have the $$ back by the time we cruise...

i am a cheapskate at heart and when the price went down yet again I could not pass it up, especially when that amount will pay for all of our excursions!

Soooo true! LOL

Get in touch with me next month if you still don't have it booked. We have it booked and we may cancel. We have 4 people(2 adults/2 kids) booked.

That would be great! Thanks for letting me know in case you cancel. I would have 3 people, 2 adults, 1 child. I think our 4 year old would LOVE watching the horse show.

That's so great you could get on the ship for less! We did that a few weeks ago, we went to one category lower and got a nice refund (of COURSE we'll use it on the ship anyway!)

Rainy, gray and dismal here today

BE-YOU-TI-FUL evening here tonight. First Wi-fi night of the year.
Birds are a-chirpin and the Buffett is a blastin'.

Was in the upper 70's today. Clear evening. Slight cresent of the moon.
Lots of vapor trails at sunset was neat.
Really nice first day of spring. Ready for the repo!

I am pretty sure that DCL holds back some spot on the excursions so folks can book onboard.

 

[cquick]

are you here in Florida? It's beautiful here all day today! I will think about today in August!

 

[gydell]

cquick - I just noticed that you are on the PC 2008 cruise with us!
