Bruce - that is fabulous!

 

[Crazy4Disney06]

AT 10:30 am, checked and got 2


CATEGORY 9(!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

That is awesome! Congrats! No upgrade for us (yet anyhow), but I'm just very excited to be going!!!

 

[Smiley22]

We are upgraded too .....from Cat 12 to Cat 9. My reservation still shows cat 12 but you have to look at the deck plans to see where your room is. The person at Disney also said that they can still upgrade you more depending on how full the ship is. Not that I am not thrilled with what I received. Good luck to everyone

 

[Butterx3]

I just checked back and my GTY12 has changed to a room. We are a catagory 9 also. That is great. Now can we start watching for hurricanes this far out?!

 

[zulaya]

Fish Extender participants, please send me your cabin number(s) as well as who's in which cabin (if you have multiples) so I can update the list.

I'm glad you all are getting upgraded to Cat 9s! At least now you have a window.

I'm in a 6, so I'm guessing the chances of my getting upgraded are slim, but I'd love it if they bumped me to a Cat 4!

Called them back and told them how happy I was and I asked for another "favor" from DCL. I was originally in side by side Cat 9 but 1 room was connecting to aonther room (not the 1 I had). I asked if they would swap so I could have connecting rooms and they said "no problem". Of course it helped that I knew the person just by shear dumb luck.

So now I have connecting Cat 9. Everyone is happy!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


Room numbers 2538 and 2540.

 

[Smiley22]

Brucechase...

Guess that makes us neighbors. We are in 2530.

 

[ndepaola]

And we'll be right down the hall too in our Cat 9

brucechase - I have the opposite issue from you. we are now in a connecting room, and have no wish to connect. i've heard it can make for sad times if you end up with noisy connecting room neighbors.

wonder if they would switch us to a non-connecting room?

 

[Smiley22]

I have the same thoughts about the connected rooms. We are in connecting rooms also but I didnt want to say anything. Guess I will just have to live with it. The other room may be the one that wants to move...my husband snores

 

[gatorcruiser]

We got our stateroom assignment, sadly no upgrade for me. I am still in a Cat. 12. A window would be very nice, but I am happy we will be in the middle of the ship. This way I figure it will be quicker to get to where we want to go! Congrats everyone on your upgrade!

 

[gatorcruiser]

oops...I was wrong!! Yaaaay! I did get a Cat. 9!! We get a window and mid ship Deck 1. Happy dance!

 

[zulaya]

gatorcruiser - I need your cabin number and the first names of the people in your cabin for the Fish Extender exchange.

If I mistakenly have you on the FE list, let me know and I'll remove you. Otherwise, please email me at pampchef@qwest.net or PM me at your earliest convenience.

Thank you!

 

[gatorcruiser]

Zulaya,

I just sent you an e-mail. I tried to send you a pm earlier but it seems I am restricted from sending pm's until I have 10 posts.

 

[zulaya]

Got your email gatorcruiser! Thanks!

You guys are so lucky that are by one another. I am in room 1046 which is an upgrade to a 9, but when I look at the deck plan, it doesn't seem like an upgrade really, I don't think it has a window, but It must have the split bath which makes it an upgrade. Who knows. I am just glad to be cruising, and this time I will have to wake up early and catch the sunrises on the upper decks.

At least you got an upgrade. No such luck for us.

 

[Butterx3]

I looked again and we do have an outside room, so we will have a window. I must be dyslexic, we are in room 1046 and I kept looking at the location of 1049. So I thought we had a standard inside room. There is still time for you to get an upgrade. Some people even get them at the port.

We booked connecting 10s with 2 of the kids, sis, and mom in the other stateroom. Am I a bad person for hoping we get upgraded to a non-connecting room? LoL

I have to get some printer ink for the 3000 door signs I made. I did some for the cruise and some for our door at Saratoga after the cruise. Then I can post some pictures!!!

I cannot believe we are only 28 days out. Don't we get cruise docs or something in the next week or so? (last time I cruised, my cousin was the main person, so she did all that stuff)

 

[zulaya]

Steph - you should be able to login to disneycruiseline.com with your reservation number and see if you were upgraded. It will probably still say Cat 10, but you need to look at the cabin numbers to see where you are.

You can actually print off a bunch of your documents right from the website.

When you login to check, send me your cabin numbers for the Fish Extender thing so I can update the list. My email is pampchef@qwest.net

Thanks!

 

[2Princes2Princesses]

I did my online docs. I just thought we were mailed something else like 3 weeks before the cruise. The last thing we rec'd was our letter to make our excursion reservations and stuff.

Alas, no upgrades for us, but that is fine. I am on deck 7, where I want to be. I did PM my cabin numbers to you. If you would rather have an email, let me know!

And I am so excited for everyone who got upgraded to 9s!!! Woohooo!!!
