[two-foxes]

Ca to Fl
Cat 6
2 adults
$5700 (don't have the exact figure)
DU's rate sent thru email

OR


Ca to Fl
Cat 7 GTY
2 adults
$5900 (w/insurance and transfers)
DCL at 4:15 MT time

Still deciding which to keep...most likely will get an upgrade with the GTY...

Or still deciding how much we want to go! 5 days at DLR could be done for a heck of a lot cheaper...especially since I heard somewhere these repositionings may be happening after this summer as well!

Booked 8:00pm MST I should have booked earlier in the day but I wasn't sure if we would be able to do this but then when I started reading about the rates it was such a good deal for 14 days that I just could not stop my fingers from dialing DCL!

[Drcell01]

2 Adults & 1 DD (14yrs) it was $4383 w/o ins. Cat 11 Deck 6

It was made by TA and I don't know what time but she did experience the same situation with Disney not being able to take FL to CA res until later in the day.

 

[thiscloud]

CA to FL
Cat 12 (Gty)
2 adult 1 child
2767.67 (w/tax and fees but no ins or trans)
booked online between 10:45am and 11am pacific time

(first it took about 30-40 minutes before the cruises even showed up on disney's site, then it kept timing out, but i kept going back and trying again and again and plowed my way through to the end.)

i've found that the FL to CA trips are running $600-$900 more than CA to FL trips of equivalent category and people per room, why is that?

 

[dianthus]

The FL to CA price is higher probably because it's the fanfare of an inaugural - the Ship going through the Panama Canal for the first time, westbound for DL's 50th & the weather in May is optimal for cruising.

Still, the price is not bad for 14 days!
