Not as of this morning. Yeah, I just checked.....again.....Yeah, I know it's too early and we shouldn't expect them yet.

 

[klcason]

They are only showing 4 & 5 available now. I have to quit looking at it!!!!!!!!! At least until after lunch maybe.

 

[brucechase]

1st check today and nothing for us.

 

[Suzepoo]

I can't find the post with all the kids and their ages, but just in case my nephew doesn't get to cruise with us...my son would like to perhaps email with some of the other kids before we cruise. He is 11 years old and into all sorts of sports, so if your child is his same age, please PM me your email address and perhaps we can get better acquainted before we get to Cape Canaveral. Also....my friend that is cruising with us has a daughter who is also 11, so we can hook ALL of them up! Gotta love friends....they make the world go round so much better!!

 

[loveysbydesign]

My son will be 10 and loves all kinds of sports as well!! Does anyone have the updated list with the kids ages? I thought I had saved it but can't find it!

 

[Suzepoo]

Just checked my email from Bruce and it has ALL info...names and ages....of EVERYONE!!! WOO HOO.....even email addresses...PERFECT!!! I'm a happy camper now....will be emailing some of you soon!!

 

[kcashner]

They're up to something.....this morning, only cat 4 and 5 were available and we had no cabin numbers listed. Now, cat 4,5,6,and 7 are showing available....and we still have no cabins....but the FL res rates are gone for our date.

 

[klcason]

I agree, they have to at least be working on it, right!!!!!!

 

[voyages]

klcason...where in shreveport are you? We are in Bossier City. Are you driving or flying down? We are flying out on Friday morning. This is our first cruise so we are extremely excited.

 

[klcason]

Well, how interesting is that!!! We are actually in South Bossier down off Sligo. Where are y'all.

We are actually leaving on the 23rd and doing a week in the parks before the cruise. We are driving and stopping in Pensacola to spend the night. This will be our 3rd drive with the kiddos! Did you get that really good airfare from allegiant? I heard that it went really cheap, but dh HATES TO FLY!!!!!

You will love, love, love the cruise. We did a 4 nite Wonder last May and rebooked onboard! We were on the May 24th Wonder but when the great rates came out for the 7 nites, we jumped ship over here!!

We are in NE Bossier by the racetrack.

We drove to WDW in November and swore we would not do it again with our DS who is 4. We weren't even to Minden and he was asking to stop for the bathroom and if we were there yet. Barely made it to Ruston before he was asking to stop again. This is not usual for him, but not willing to go through that again. No, we didn't book through Allegiant. We actually got free tickets through Delta. DH travels enough on business that we got a free ride. When we booked, Allegiant didn't have the dates open yet and you can't beat free! DD was born in Pensacola, so we stop there everytime we head that way. We will be staying in the parks for 3 days after the cruise. Hoping it will help to end the vacation there rather than coming straight off the boat and going home.

DH already told me we are NOT rebooking on board. I'm wondering if I can get him a few strong drinks to change his mind.

Mine said he wouldn't book again either before our first cruise. So me being the good wife that I am rebooked anyway and just forgot to mention it until after we were home and he started talking about what a great trip it was! Now he is hooked and he is taking Disney cruise number 7 in December!

Laura

 

[klcason]

Mine said the same thing, then he was the one who suggested it!!! The first time we drove my ds (now 7) was just shy of 2, IT WAS A NIGHTMARE!! We flew until year before last and dh talked me into trying to drive again. Now that we split it up it really works OK, if we try a shorter trip we have to fly though. We are DVC members and try to go twice a year, one short and one long.

You absolutely can't beat free!! A friend of ours got it for less than $100 per person RT with all fees included, I thought that was pretty good!

He will have a great time!!!!!

Laura: Kirk said he wouldn't rebook either, had a hard enough time talking him into the 4 nite, I showed him though!!!!!

If you see anything wrong, let me know. We are off to Carowinds in the AM so I won't be able to do any updates until Tues or Wed.

Hey Bruce,
Sorry I have not replied to you...life got in the way. I can't access your email as I have not posted enough...I think. I'm not sure if I should put my email on this board or not.

Let me know and if it's too late and I've been dropped from the FE that's okay too!

LOL
on our first cruise i dropped by a few times to see about rebooking onboard and it was too long of a line to "sneak" that in... then finally about midway thru the cruise I caught her without a line and rebooked onboard. At the end of the cruise DH was saying he'd like to cruise again (he thought it was going to be all disney all the time or feel like WDW on a ship- and he's not fond of disney.... ugh he annoys me! LOL) and I asked did he think we should rebook onboard because then we'll get a discount on the next cruise, OBC and can cancel without penalty and/or change to a new date later on and he said yeah... and I was like good, cause I already did.



He just said "figures"...

he knows me so well!
Well I wasn't worried- if he hated it and didn't want to cruise DCL again then I could cancel and get my deposit back no problem!
