Call me crazy but I'm about to drive to Louisiana to get some lottery tickets! If I win the big money, I'm going to book the whole ship for a DIS cruise, but I get the Walt Suite! So, y'all wish me luck!

 

[dmonroe]

Wow! I haven't visited this thread in a while--it's getting huge! What with the holidays and all, I haven't had a lot of time for the boards.
Plus, I have a confession to make.....I have been having a hard time getting all fired up about the cruise! I've always wanted to do this cruise, but doing it means no 10 day trip to WDW this year!
I need to get WAY more involved in this thread so that I can get totally fired up about this trip! Plus, I think I'm gonna have to see if we can do Friday night at WDW and do MNSSHP again. At least I'll get a little WDW fix that way!
Hope everyone is having a great weekend! (Hope you win the lottery, Paula!)

Let me ask a question.....we used DCL transfers on our 4 day cruise & like I said we ended up not getting to the ship until 2 or 2:30pm. Do you all recommend not using DCL transfers & doing the whole hummerzine or convoy thing???? We already added the transfers when we booked, but I am asuming that we could drop them if we wanted to? :

P.S. Love the CONVOY song Sean & Christine.

Good grief! That was a pleasant surprise after I just stuffed my face with sushi! I found out my dogs like sushi also. No need to butter up, love. But it's nice to hear!

I was beginning to wonder if I needed to drive down to the 'burg and look you up! Come to the MK that Friday before the cruise. Several of us are planning on it and we'd love to have you!

Also interested to know if the cruise needs to be paid in full to link our dining.

Sean & Christine

To be moved from late to early or vice versa, yes must be paid in full. I think it was around the three month out mark aka 15 days early aka castaways club online booking date.

Ok, Mel (is it ok to call you Mel?)

Are you transferring from WDW to PC? If so, I have no clue how it works on Saturdays for the Magic, lol.

Are you transferring from MCO to PC on the day of the cruise? Then it is easy and you can arrive at the port as early as 10:45 or so. The first bus leave MCO around 9:30 am.

I was suppose to do a WDW to PC to MCO this last cruise, but was offered a ride in a rental car, then they ditched the car to take a ride in the hummerzine, so I hopped on the hummerzine too.

Big Money! Big Money!

 

[vital]

Boy is my day not going good at all. Not only did I not win the lottery, there were 3 call ins at work so now I have to go in. Oh well, at least that's more cruise money for me! Hope y'all have a good day!

 

[A fat english gent]

Our first cruise was a 4 day as well. We opted out for the DCL transfer and I spent the extra money on a towncar for this very reason! We arrived at the port at about 10:30... walked right up to the desk... then straight over to get my son's ID bracelet for the club... sat at the snack counter had a coke while chatting with other cruisers... took pics with Mickey and Minnie... and we were ON the ship, in our bathing suits and at the pool by Noon.

We had a #2 to board and they starting boarding the ship with #1's at 11:30, we got called at 11:45 and thanks to these boards knew EXACTLY where to go and what to do. It was awesome and the most fun my son had in the Mickey Pool because it was soooo not crowded until about 2:30 - 3:00!

I feel the extra money was well worth the arrival time and starting our cruise earlier than we might have!!
