Hi. Anyone else on these boards going on this cruise?
It's over a year away but I'm at work bored so I thought I'd try to find out.
It'll just be me going as my friends are all cheap

 

[BELLE16127]

Just wanted to post this here as I just found it AFTER I posted on the Regular Cruise Board.....MY Daughter will be "GETTING MARRIED" on this Cruise........

 

[CinderALLIE]

Congratulations to your Daughter. Unfortunately I am no longer going on this cruise as my Itinerary changed so I'm going a week sooner.

I hope your daughter has a lovely wedding.

Just bumping this one up there and looking for someone else who may be on this cruise........

 

[Captain_Oblivious]

My family of 5 plus my in-laws are currently booked on this one. It'll be our first cruise!

 

[BELLE16127]

OH my gosh FINALLY someone else will be on this cruise with us!! So excited to see another DIS member will be there I was beginning to think I was the only one. Your first cruise how exciting, this will be our 5th. How old is everyone you are sailing with?? Like I posted earlier my Daughter will be getting MARRIED on this cruise! We are so EXCITED. They are hoping to get married on the Secret Deck 7 (I guess the location can change depening on weather and so on) Sooo depening on what you are doing around 4:30 or 5:30 (yeah I guess those are the times for the Ceremony also) on Nassau day if you get a spot on the deck above you can look down and watch She will be the AMAZING looking girl in the long white dress.

Glad to "meet" you and I would love to hear if anyone else is cruising with us now that FINALLY there is another!!!!!!

 

[Captain_Oblivious]

My daughter will be 7, and my sons 5 and 3. My in-laws are having some health issues right now, so hopefully this will all work out--they're the ones footing the bill! We haven't told the kids yet. I'm excited to try this out! My wife and I are big Disney geeks.

Congratulations to your daughter!

We're going on this cruise along with 2 other families. At time, DD will be 9 and my DSs will be 12 and 14. The other families by 2 boys (10 and 13) and 4 boys (7, 9, 12, and 14). Only 1 girl out of the 9 kids!

We're telling them all together at a superbowl party this weekend. Probably very early to tell them but I can't wait any more! We have a survivor-like challenge we're making them do and the end puzzle spells disney cruise.

 

[BELLE16127]

What a wonderful way to tell people about a cruise.....Please let us know how it all turns out when they figure it out!!! I am SO EXCITED about this cruise, it will be our fifth Disney Cruise but THIS ONE will be AMAZING.....I can't wait to see our daughter as a "BRIDE".

Anyone with the name "goeagles" is welcome on my cruise!

 

[BELLE16127]

Ok the Superbowl is over MY TEAM WON!!!!!!!!! oh ok sorry I was wondering how the big suprise worked out for goeagles???? How long did it take for someone to figure it out and are they totally thrilled to be cruising soon?????

 

[goeagles]

Our big surprise went really well, except the kids weren't really freaking out the way we all expected. I think they were too shocked. It took them forever to unscramble the puzzle spelling out disney cruise, because they were convinced the whole challenge had to do with football! About 30 minutes later, they really started getting excited after it sunk in. One actuallly said, "why did you tell us so soon!".

Belle - I'm glad your team won the superbowl, but it looks like Capt. Oblivious and I are Eagles fans!

 

[Captain_Oblivious]

At least it was a really good game!

We still haven't told our kids yet. We're still not sure when we're going to break the news to them.

 

[MickeyMick56]

Hi all,
Add me to the list of cruiser's This will be our third Disney cruise and I am so excited
There is me, DH, DD 11 and DS 7
Belle, How exciting to have your daughter married on the cruise, hopefully we can get a glimpse of the beautiful bride!!

 

[goeagles]

Welcome MickeyMick56 - glad to see we have more joining this thread! My countdown clock says 226 days to go - it still feels so far away!

We booked our plane tickets this month. I was watching a few options and finally jumped on a good deal. It's nice to have that part behind us. Now it's all the fun stuff left!

 

[BELLE16127]

Great to see another family joining us on this cruise!!!!!! Mickey..the wedding is "suppose" to be the day we are in Nassau at either 4:30 or 5:30 is what DD has told us. I guess the Captain has final say on the time. They are getting married on the Secret Deck 7 so hang out on the deck above and have a look!!! LOL. I am so excited about the wedding I think we are all going to have a wonderful time.

MickeyMick56: Welcome aboard!

goeagles: If you don't mind me asking, where did you find the good airline deals? I figure we're going to be flying out of the Philly/Baltimore region as well. We were waiting for Southwest to release those dates, but that hasn't happened yet.

We live 10 minutes from the Atlantic City airport. Spirit had a promotion last month that brought the price down to $200 each. Not a great deal, but decent considering they treat this week like a holiday since NJ schools are closed for convention. The prices will start to get pretty high now. Spirit has a ton of hidden fees: every checked bag and even to reserve a seat next to your kid! But it is so close and beats the heck out of driving 1 hr to Philly airport never knowing what kind of traffic you might hit. Southwest will surely be cheaper. Look on the 'gettng there' board and you'll find the date they release November flights. I think it is in May. What area are you from?

 

[Captain_Oblivious]

Thanks! We live in New Castle County, Delaware. So we usually fly out of either Philly or Baltimore, depending on where we get better rates. Philly's a little closer, but Baltimore's airport is nicer.
