We want to do a cruise in the near future.When the Disney Files Mag arrived I saw where the 2011 Members Cruise was in Sept 2011. Are there any special events that go on that would be worth specifically going during that time? I know there will be extra incentives for add ons but we are good where we are with points so that is not a big deal. So I guess my question for all of you DVC members is what is special about the members cruise?:confused3
 
They have some extras during the cruise but the Member cruise is more expensive so you are paying for the privilege.

:earsboy: Bill
 
THIS WILL BE OUR 4th MEMBER CRUISE, THEY HAVE SPECIAL GUESTS ON BOARD. 2 YEARS AGO THEY HAD MARTY SKLAR , DUCKY WILLIAMS 3 LEADING LADIES FROM THE DISNEY BROADWAY MUSICALS, MARY POPPINS LION KING AND WICKED THEY PERFORM, AND THE GUESTS WHO DONT PERFORM THEY TALK TO YOU. I WAS IN GRAPHIC ARTS FOR 30 YEARS BUT I ORIGINALLY WANTED TO BE AN ANIMATOR FOR DISNEY, I ENJOYED SITTING BY THE POOL AND JUST TALKING WITH DUCKY WILLIAMS. LAST YEAR WE WATCHED THE NEW VERSION OF SNOW WHITE AND THE SEVEN DWARFS ON THE TOP DECK BEFORE IT WAS RELEASED. EVERYDAY YOU GET SMALL GIFTS IN YOUR ROOM SO YOU LEARN YOU NEED EXTRA SPACE. WE HAVE SAT WITH THE SAME 8 PEOPLE FOR ALL OF THE CRUISES, WE HAVE KEPT IN TOUCH THRU EMAILS AND HAVE MET AT WDW.
THE CRUISE SELLS OUT WITHIN HOURS IN NOV WHEN THEY OPEN THE LINES AT 9am. ITS A CRUISE FILLED WITH DISNEYFILES LIKE MYSELF. THERE ARE A LOT LESS KIDS ON THE CRUISE SO THE ADULT POOL AREA IS BUSIER.
BUT I GUESS IF YOU STRIP AWAY ALLLLLLL THE GLAMOR AND DECOR OF THE CRUISE IT IS DVCs WAY OF TRYING TO ENTICE YOU TO GET MORE POINTS. THEY HAVE A ROOM SET UP TO GO AND TALK WITH SALES REPS AND ONE OF THE DAYS AT SEA THEY HAVE A PRESENTATION IN THE LARGE THEATRE ABOUT WHAT IS NEW AT DVC . 2 YEARS AGO WE PURCHASED 250 MORE POINTS WHILE ON BOARD, WE NEEDED MORE POINTS, FOR THAT MANY POINTS THEY INCLUDED A FREE MEMBER CRUISE WITH A BALCONY. THERE IS NO PRESSURE TO BUY JUST HAVE FUN WITH EVERYONE ELSE WHO SHARES YOUR INTEREST IN DISNEY.
 
We have been on 5 Member only cruises and loved each and everyone of them. I love the relaxing itenerary...Castaway Cay 2 times is heaven to me. I love being around fellow DVC folks who love DVC as much as I do. I love going on DCL anytime but to share the experience with DVC'ers makes it even better!!

Yes there are little gifts in your stateroom just about everyday and I love those too.

This is the first year we will be missing the Members Cruise and it is only because we will be on the Magic coming across on the 14-day Transatlantic Cruise but 2011....Disney Dream Members Cruise, here we come!!!
 

I would LOVE to go on the member cruise but sadly it's in September. We really can't miss school just after the year starts. I wish the member cruise was in a different month!
