If you want to book with Dreams, just go ahead and book with them. That is just what I would do.
DH wants to see more of Europe, it just seems right. We're in the process of getting some quotes on the two back to back cruises.
Tammy- Ha! I was super excited! Thanks for reading my post. I'm sure most people looked at it and thought, "Wow, that's really long and looks like it was written by a lunatic." And then just skipped to the next post.
If there's no reason to book with Disney first, then I'll just book with Dreams Unlimited. I think Disney has a $25 OBC though. Can I book with them to get the $25, transfer it to Dreams Unlimited to get the $150, plus get the $50 for paying with my Disney Visa?
Once it's official, I'll come back and add my name to roll call.

We are hoping to do this cruise and the first Med and the airfare we got, through Disney, is $1174 out of Portland, Oregon. It'll fly us to Galveston and then home from Barcelona after the first Med cruise. It includes our transfers and any hotels if needed. I'm concerned about the gas prices rising and airfare just getting higher, so this seemed like the way to go. And I've heard that Disney Air is good for connections and such when flying internationally. We'll be traveling with our 8 year old daughters, so we don't want to fly for 24 hours with five connections, yanno?
We originally booked the transatlantic with air about six weeks ago (but I haven't posted on this thread before now, I don't think). Then we reshopped this cruise last week while on the Wonder. I was told by Guy, the future cruises person on the Wonder, that Disney Air was waitlisted for this and the Med. But when I looked at it today, I was just checking it on the Disney website, it let me add air
. So I called my fabulous TA and he talked to Disney. They first told him that air was waitlisted and he said that I'd seen it still available online, so they checked further. They then came back and said it WAS still available! Anyway, my TA was then able to add the air to my new reservation that I'd booked onboard so that I got the onboard booking deal, phew.Call again and talk to someone elseSo I called Disney last night and spoke with someone who told me that the air prices are not out yet for our cruise, go figure. I know when I did the Alaska cruise there were many times that some people on the boards would get one answer and then I would get another. I will try again next week, the price looks like it would be a good deal not having to worry about anything.
I would love to see your navigators!Hi! Was looking at the "Meets" and saw this thread. I'm not booked on this cruise, but we did the EBTA in 2010 and the WBTA in 2011, so I wanted to put it out there that if you have any questions I am happy to answer them.
I saw the roll call & Mandygirl is on this cruise, I believe she (and possibly others) has done the EBTA before, but just in case, I wanted to offer to answer any questions.
I also have all of the Navigators from the EBTA - there are a lot! - so if there is an interest in those, I could post them as well. Just PM me and let me know.
You are going to love the EBTA! It is a wonderful experience.
I hope you enjoy your cruise

Sure you can't join? 
If that goes well, we will most likely tack on another cruise, but not on DCL due to $$$. 
Heck, what am I saying, their baby books aren't even done yet - WBTA 2011 might get done first! LOL. For the cost of the med cruise we could take the train to Paris, then London and fly home from there. I realize it's all personal preference, but looking for thoughts from those of you more traveled than myself. It will be my wife,DS5, and myself.
Hello again!
Tom and I are officially booked on the EBTA as well as the first Med cruise! We just didn't want to wait any longer to celebrate DH's retirement as well as our anniversary.
Goofy39.3, DH and I have been very happy doing cruises in Europe, and we also did a 7 night Collette tour in Greece before the Greek Isle cruise that was part of the itinerary. We would have loved to spend more time than just the overnight (2 days) in St. Petersburg on the Baltic cruise. There are just so many places that we want to SEE, if we have more time in the future, we at least have an idea of where to return to. We spent nearly 2 weeks on a Princess cruise of the British Isles, there are places there we would love to get back to as well. DH and I prefer to travel in organized tours, we have friends who have been to Spain on their own 3 times, each time for over 2 weeks! Obviously they love Spain!
With your 5 year old, I would tend to go with cruises, JMO!
Bobbi
PS. It is so great to see that I have 4 DCL cruises pending as I checked the CC site!
I think the current Pacific Princess is a different ship, and we almost sailed on her to Alaska in 2007.
