Oct. 16-23, 2010 - Bring Back the Magic

[annichan]

YEAH!!! I looked at our reservation to day and saw where the fuel charge will be credited as an onboard credit. More drinks for me!

I may be dumb, but I can't find any mention of that in my reservation ...
Could someone please let me know where to look for it when I have logged into the DCL website and retrieved my reservation?

Go to the dashboard. The far right column says messages on top. The notice was in teh bottom half of teh messages box fro me.

Will let you know on the aqua boats! DH gets motion sick adn wears a patch for the cruise. We can't push it, though, so can't do most sails or anything where someone else is driving. This seems liek a great way to go!

I look in my message box and do not see a fuel surcharge credit??? I am wondering if this is because I was never charged a fuel surcharge when I booked or???? I booked in Aug-09 when did you book your trip???

I booked in March 09. I was surprised I got it, as I booked on DVC points.

Are you sure you got the credit? I called DVC and they told me we were not eligible since they don't charge us when usnig points.

The woman could not explain why we got the message that we got the credit on our reservation.

Yay!
We're going to MNSSHP too, but on the 24th. I am really looking forward to it, haven't done it before!

By the way: Is anyone planning on going to Halloween Horror Nights at Universal as well? We haven't quite made up our minds yet ...

Were planning on going, were just not sure what day we are.

I dont know how many your dh has tried, but I have a few tricks to help with motion sickness if youd like.

I can't find it, either, Annichan. We can be dumb together.
I don't see a heading called Messages or anything like it.

I don't know, but I would trust what they posted on my ressie, as opposed to DVC MS. Not been happy with the bad info they gave me that DCL set straight.

Let's see.... he's done bands, dramamine (regular and non-drowsy), salt, ginger, and the patch. he loves teh patch and can even do coasters with it. Still, when he's already spending so much time on a moving vessel, it's just not worth it to put him on a smaller boat. I'm just absolutely thrilled that he can cruise, doesn't matter to me that we avoid small boats for excursions. There's plenty of other stuff we can do. That being said, if you have any other tips to share, that'd be great!!! We're doing a triathlon with a swim in Lake MI in 10 days and swimming in teh waves gets to him too. He's not thrilled about using any of his other tricks before a race. Feel so badly for him. I was motion sick once: small boat, handed out bags as we got on because it was rouhg, but I never get sick, so sat faicng backwards and tried to write. I screwed up on so many levels. Gave me a hint of what he has to deal with, though.

I don't see anything on my reservation page either, but I "assume" it's because we booked through a TA. I need to call the TA and ask them if it shows up on our reservation.

I booked via DVC points. So...who knows. If we get it, then hooray. If not, there will be other magic to find on the boat!

Hi Deb,
We are on this cruise as well!! It's our 3rd trip on the Magic and the kids cannot wait!

We are doing late dining, too, but on wait list for early.
We have a 3 yr old girl, Meredith, and baby boy Dexter.

That's how we feel... it will be a pleasant surprise if it shows up.

We are still cruising so that's all that matters to us.

Have you checked lately? We were on teh waiting list (6 kids in our group) and just got in.

That being said, teh way DCL does it, late dining is not bad. You go to the show first adn early dining sees the show while you eat. We tend to be the early to bed type and this still worked fine. For our AK cruise, you ate at 9 or 10 adn went to the show after. zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz

DVCers - Just did a search and found this thread. http://www.disboards.com/showthread.php?t=2494298

It looks like $40 per adult and $15 per child, even if you paid on points. better than a kick in the head.

Thanks! I usually catch that. It's been a day, though.

We are booked through DU and I just called their 888 number and was told that I had to send an email to the Cruise Concierge.

This is the 1st time we booked through DU and I have to say i'm not thrilled at the fact that they don't send you any of the DCL booking confirmation forms that we get when we book through a real TA. So I don't even know if we were charged the fuel surcharge or not. Let's see how long it takes them to get back to me...

We could use some pictures of Baby Dexter please (and Meredith too)
