Keep your eyes open, we got our travel docs today!! I was disappointed when I stopped at the mailbox but thrilled when I reached my back door and saw UPS had been there.
I am so ready to go!

KatRob - I'm doing the dance for you right now in my office chair. Did you book through Disney or other? Not asking you to name someone just curious...

Mal, I booked through DU. Matter of fact, I'm already looking into another Disney cruise and was comparing prices with DCL and DU and it was exactlly the same. I might just go directly with DCL next time. I didn't have any complaints but if Disney is going to end up with my cc number I would just as soon give it to them myself instead of a third party.

KatRob - I saw your post, ran to my front door and THERE THEY WERE!!
Travel DOCS!!! WOOT!

Edit: By the way I booked via DisneyCruise.com

Agraygirl - doing the happy dance for you even as I type. However, the two of you getting your docs has just increased my neurosis 1,000 fold. Need to call Disney immediately and figure out why I was not the first one on the boat to receive my docs. Well maybe I can wait at least one more day. It really is getting close

We received ours too! Actually came on Friday last week! We also booked through DU. Interestingly enough, I tried to book directly and the ressie system was "down" the night I tried to book. (Could see prices but not make reservations). I e-mailed DU the same night for ressie.

Next morning, I tried booking again through Disney directly and prices had actually GONE UP from previous night. However, DU's quote when i received it was at the lower previous night's price. Needless to say, I went with DU!

Mal - don't freak - your docs will come. If not, we promise we won't let the Wonder sail without you!!!!!

Is it just me or does ever client/customer/work issue you've ever had in the past 5 years reappear during the 2 weeks you are trying to leave to go on vacation? Work has been nuts and sis-in-law had surgery which we thought she'd recover from quickly. She has had a terrible time and my brother had to go out of town for business. So....in addition to work, my kids' daily fifteen million end of the year school activities, and my wonderful grandmother from KY coming to visit for 2 weeks , I have my 13 month old niece staying with us! I could eat her cute little cheeks off but I am getting nothing done! Am I the only one going crazy????

Leaving next Friday for the World! Can't wait!!!!!!!!

Interesting, the docs are coming from FL and littleprincessmom, agraygirl, and I are all physically closer to FL. Like a wave heading west...hopefully the rest of you will get them today. Right in the middle of writing this I got im'ed by my teens buddy asking if she can hang out for a couple of days (Tue and Wed) next week. The 8th grade has Dollywood trip-Mon, promotion practice-Tue, and promotion on Wed and then freedom. Had a banquet last night and and awards day is this Friday. Yes, littleprincessmom, they do crowd those last couple of weeks.

We booked thru AAA and no documents yet.I hope today.I just wonder if they may be at the AAA office.

Alittleprincessmom:things have been crazy since March here and we will be going nonstop until we leave.My oldest just got a huge project due next week.

Well I need to get some cleaning done and packing.I am hoping to be done next thursday so we can go to the Pirates premiere

Thanks for the kind words, but I am hypervenilating. NO docs, but I do feel relieved knowing you will not allow Capt Henry to sail without me. Even if I do not have docs I keep telling myself - worse case scenario they print new ones at the dock. I do not know why things you have to do increase proportionately to the time you have left. The less time the more things.

(the sad part about the hypervenilating is I am trying to be funny, but it is actually sort of true ) Well better get back to work.
MAL

Oh and I have clients coming in at five for a dinner meeting so won't get to go home until late to see if docs are here stress stress stress

Got my docs!
I did the online check in, so the package was thin. It's still exciting.

Hi All,

I have yet to receive any documents, we booked the cruise thru travelocity. Since this is our first cruise, what documents should we be expecting?

Thanks, Jim.

 

[agraygirl]

Mal, it's going to be oookkkayyyy. Breath.

In with the good.. out with the bad.

Jim, you should get one checkbook sized per person(maybe bigger) thingy with your boarding pass and your cruise contract and some other misc stuff.
I can take a pic of mine and send it to you if you don't get yours soon.

 

[maleficent esq.]

My mother's friend got her docs today. So at least Mom's room is reserved. Things are starting to look up. Did the online check in so we should be ok. Already got the packets from CBR at WDW things overall are good, just remember to breathe.

I really am getting so excited.

Mal:I know how you feel,I want my documents.I tried to call AAA but my travel agent is gone today.

We leave in 338 hours not that I am counting or anything

So glad we can share each others pain. Here is some pixie dust so everyone gets docs today

 

[alcoromom]

Sorry Mal,mine are at AAA.I can pick them up tomarrow.

 

[maleficent esq.]

SIGH!!!

 

[KatRob]

Jim,
Don't freak if each person doesn't get a booklet. We just got one booklet with everyone's name and info in it. One page with "bar codes" for each of us.

Yo Ho Ho Ho A Cruising Life for Me My buddy Jerome the UPS guy just rang the door bell and dropped off our tickets A much smaller package than it used to be. The first cruise we went on had cool note pads and other fun stuff - oh well, I'm not complaining.

 

[magicalmcwho]

Thanks for the answers on the documents. I will keep an eye out for them. I went online about a month ago and filled out all the documents on the DCL website and printed them all out. So I was unsure as what other documents I would need.

Ohh and by the way only 7 more working days for me until we leave, but who's counting.

I will keep you posted, Jim.

 

[maleficent esq.]

Well they arrived! Whew. . . Now I need to start packing, got my Mickey Heads for my door. Watching the Republican Debates think I'd rather be cruising.
