I just got off the phone with Disney. Now they are saying they won't fix this even though Tiffany is willing to switch. I have to do it on the ship. Does anyone have a Mailing address for complaints ,because this is not right. I'm still gonna worry from hear on out,even though Tiffany said she would switch rooms. Why they would tell me one thing and do another idk.

I know you posted later in the thread that you are one step closer. Let us know when everything gets settled.

For everyone that has posted pictures, thanks it will make it much easier to recognize each other on the ship.

Jane: I mentioned mailing things to the ship. I read it on the main boards. The specifications say 12" box (ie record storage box) that should weigh less than 20 lbs and cannot include food of any kind. My box is 14x14" and will likely weight close to 20 lbs. I plan to ship it this coming weekend as I'm almost done with all of my FE gifts! (I just have to buy one more pack of magnet paper....) I let everyone know if it gets sent back!

I think we are going to ship a box to the hotel and then bring everything on board with us.

JANE - here are our room numbers to add to the FE list
# 6305, # 6002, # 6307
I think you already have my parents' stateroom number, right?

Got the cabin numbers, but who is in which room? Yup, got Carole's.

We got our room assignments. 2 Cat. 11 rooms when we booked 12's. Nothing amazing, I suppose...but we expected to still be in 12's, so it's a baby step up, right? We're in rooms 6315 and 6317. I'm just thankful that they're next to each other!

Amy - which room will you be putting the FE on?

That is so funny - Deck 2 is the party place!!! We are on deck 7 - anyone else up there?

We're in 7508! Kym & Dempsey (Faith & Hope) and Sara & Dennis (Mother Hen) are also listed as being on deck 7. Waiting for their actual cabin numbers.

Jane - Shawn and I love the shirts. I can't wait to see them in person so we can get a picture of you two!!! You did a great job!!!

I miss that club. It was good times!

Thanks! I'm not sure what we are going to do in the evenings now. We're going to try out Jelly Rolls, hopefully that will be fun as well.

Ok, how about a mini-meet for anyone staying at WDW before the cruise? There had been talks about beneits (sorry don't know how to spell it). I know that Sonya and Tony have ressies at Raglin Road the same time as us on Friday (8:00pm) but maybe we could meet in the afternoon for a quick meet.

I just found out today that I may have to fly to Chicago on Sunday for a conference. The woman that had planned to go is having some medical issues and may not be released to fly. I'd have to fly out on Sunday at 6:00am and then come home on Wednesday. I'm actually kind of hoping that it works out, it would really make the time before the cruise pass by super quick (and I could take my FE project with me and work on it at night).

Off to watch AI - hope its a good week...

Hi everyone,

Great Pics.... I love family pics!!

We had 2 cat 12 gty cabins and were upgraded to 2 cat 11 sideways cabins5001 and 5005. I was hoping for a 9 but I am really happy with the sideways 11 based on what I have read. They apparently feel roomier than the other inside rooms... We will see I believe there is still a chance for upgrades good luck to everyone that still wants one..

I am also happy with the location.. It seems to be close to lots of things especially the kids clubs

Kerwin, Demetris, Devin, and Demi 5001
Kevin, Aida, Christian 5005

Also Crystal... don't worry everything will work out... just know it inside and it will be done.... I can already see you and your family relieved and happy to be next door to each other...

 

[Hudson5&Lennon3]

We will be at the Radisson early afternoon...think we are going to try Rusty's if anyone wants to join us??!!

We probably won't go to Rusty's only because my friend who lives there has strongly recommended Milliken's Reef. So....I'm hoping we end up there instead.

So where are Rusty's, Grills, and Milliken's Reef from the Radisson? We're looking for something within walking distance since we won't have a car. You're both driving to PC, right?

Yes, there is a thread on the DISign board regarding "stick figure families". It's pretty long, but I think the disigner there is still customizing.

Cool! Thanks! I'll go check it out!

We're just on the other side of the ship! We LOVE deck 5! So close to almost everything.

I picked up my signature photo mats at Wal-Mart over the weekend. Now I need to put my little "info" stuff on it. I bought one for my parents, too, as a surprise! Shhhhhhh! Even though we got one last time, I think I need another one!

We are on Deck 7 too YAY!! As far as I know, we are in #7558. That's the room we requested through our TA

 

[tigger2002]

[tsarina13]

Does anyone know how upgrades at the port work, if they are available? i paid for a cat 12, upgraded to a cat 9. if i want to go any higher do i need to pay the difference between the cat 9 and the the cat i want, or the FULL difference from cat 12?

We are driving, but there will be 4 adults in my Dad's big Dodge truck! (It's one of those 4-door deals with plenty of room!) I don't think the restaurants are within walking distance, but I'm not really sure. I do believe though that the Radisson has a free shuttle though... I also think that the restaurants are all essentially close to each other on the water. Frankly, if the Radisson shuttle is an option, we'll probably take it. That way we can have a frozen concoction WITH our dinner and all 4 of us can participate!

The Radisson shuttle is free to the Portbut you have to make a reservation for a pick up time. in case yo didn;t know. So call them ASAP!

Has anyone seen this post on the main board??? http://www.disboards.com/showthread.php?t=2149264
I requested the 8:30 dining rotation of APLLAPL so I guess I'd better call to be sure that they have the APLLAPL listed and not just the dining time...

I did that a long time ago! We are already booked on the 10 o'clock shuttle to go to the ship!

I was actually talking about a shuttle that takes you from the hotel to local restaurants, etc. for the night before the cruise!

That's a good idea!! I didn't even think about the shuttle for restaurants. Hopefully they do that! I, of course, wouldn't mind a walk to & from a restaurant, but the boys would complain the whole way.

OMG!! I'll have to keep any eye on the responses to see if they really did do away with staggered times. See...I really DO need to visit the main cruise thread more often!! THANKS SO MUCH to all my awesome cruise buddies for keeping us informed when we miss something!

 

[lillygator]

I really hope they did not do away with the staggered seating times....6 is early enough!!

I agree!

EEEP! I thought 6 was early! This could be interesting.......

Thanks, I skipped over that thread until I saw your post here. Dave

 

[shasess]

I really wish that we could see a copy of a recent navigator (March) . I think that the dining times are listed each day.
