You might get more responses on this question if you ask it of the general forum.

Thanks! I’ll do that.

This might be a silly question but does anyone who’s sailed the TA before have a preference of EB vs WB? Is the sailing smoother one way vs the other? Why is it your preference?

We took the EBTA last year and loved it! For me the ports going east are better but the time changes can be tough. If you like the ports going west that's the way I would go.

We had two this year - the one I just debarked from (Oct 15th) and one on September 24th. I was surprised when I saw there was only one for next year... I thought about going again since it was a great cruise but the price is so much higher now!

Yes, the price keeps jumping and jumping and last time I checked they only had verandah's left at over $8,000 each!!

I’m a little concerned, the wait time for DCL on their phone system has been greater than 15 min each time I’ve tried to call for the past three days. I hope it slows down when it comes time to book the new 2019 itinerary.

Use a travel agent, then they wait on the phone for you! (and they can do a bunch of bookings in one call and they also have a dedicated line) That's the main reason for using an agent, IMO.

Maybe a lot of staff took some days off to rest before the storm...? OK ok, now I know I am stretching...!

I posted in the other thread, but I think we will see news tomorrow.

I tried to join the disney cruising FB page and it says it's a closed group. How do you join?

 

[DCLCrazy64622]

I do not have FB. Can someone copy the post onto this board?

I have a weird question. We will most likely be at WDW when our booking window opens for the 2019 releases... is there anywhere that we can go to book in person there?

 

[Baileykiko]

Fingers crossed we start hearing news tomorrow Been anxiously waiting...

Thanks I tried from their home page but it kept saying I couldn't "edit" the group. Tried to friend from my home page hopefully it will work.

Until recently I lived in Florida, near WDW, and I tried to find an in-person to get information on and book my first Disney cruise. Unfortunately, I was unsuccessful (I checked the parks and Disney Springs).

The TAs start pretty low usually. They are usually an excellent deal.

Sorry what does TA mean in this instance? Not travel agent?

In this instance, TA refers to TransAtlantic cruises.
