For some reason, I was under the impression we could book 2 Palo dinners due to the length of the cruise, but it will only let me book one.

For everyone like myself disappointed in brunch, remember that they only offer a small percentage of openings on-line for each of the milestone dates. So there's still a good chance you'll get what you want...especially with so many sea days! Stay positive!

I know we're in a different time zone from the DCL 'puters, but this is ridiculous!

Don't they know we had to get up at 5am on a Sunday - for this???

Different time zone, yes, but you're time for the same day is AHEAD of their server. As always, it doesn't make any sense, and leaves a terrible taste in people's mouth.

Got logged on but could not figure how to get past the 91 days till I clicked on my planning center. Got Palo Dinner, and the excursions we wanted. I figure now I will be sprinting to Diversions to get on the list for Palo Brunch!!!!

 

[pjpoohbear]

Swimming or taking a small boat to catch us?

Angie, do you remember your hoped for side trip to Manzanillo, Mexico on the WBTA, hmmmm..... I believe you chose swimming to catch up to the magic.

ok back to sleep for me as Im having trouble seeing the keyboard!

I'm really bummed we couldnt get Palo Brunch as thats our favourite but fingers crossed they'll open more up.

Hope everyone else has managed to at least get in now!!

I am still not in. I set a timer for 20 minutes and hope then it will let me in without all the issues. It tells me my account is not available now try again in 20 minutes. I can get in but keep giving errors.

They typically keep Palo reservations to book on the ship, but then you need to worry about it then. I just wanted it to be booked.

Good luck to all of you.

 

[tink too]

Mine said 91 days too but allowed me to book...

Sarah can you ignore what it says and click on 'my cruise plans'....thats what I did...then gos to things you can reserve

Thanks UKANGEL - that worked eventually - 27th times the charm!

And Dennis would not let me make that side trip and swim!! Such fun memories we have with DCL and the DIS.

thanks Mandy that worked ....

Have booked the 2 excursions I wanted, but had to get Palo on a port day as the sea days were 9pm or one of the more specialised nights in the main dining rooms. Booked it for Madeira .... but might change it yet.

No brunches though

[KermitRocks]

A big to those who can't log on! I hope you can log on soon!

I managed to book our excursions and palo. I booked Palo for 9/24 and I hope this date isn't a special event night.

Good night and Good luck everyone!!!!

Thanks Woody. I think you know better on this than Stephanie!!!!

 

[Terapin]

We got the excursions that we wanted and dinner and brunch. Not thrilled with the dinner date but I feel lucky to have gotten anything. Booked the dolphin swim as a surprise to my big kids - they will be thrilled.

Sorry to all who were frustrated. Now to bed - 1am here.

Have changed it to Tortola night for Palo..... we leave there early. Still hope to change it to Lumiere's rotational night when on board, so fingers crossed.

hope everyone else who is still trying gets it sorted ..... I'm going back to bed.

Found this which might be of interest to those wanting to do Gibraltar on their own like us.

Apparently the public buses 3 & 4 go from the town centre to the Rock for about 1 pound return.

You can't get on your account at all?!?! That stinks!!

I got on just long enough to make sure our 2nd stateroom "really" has all our excursions confirmed that we booked by calling concierge. They were there. Then I bopped over to see about Palo brunch- as that's all we're interested in doing this time (seeing as how we've never done Palo brunch!) but they were already all taken.
wow those were gone quick.
Did anyone get Palo brunch at all that's on this thread?
I guess maybe we'll ask about it after we board and see if we can- but if we can't get Palo brunch... ohwell, I won't cry about it. haha

I really thought there would be more bookings available for Palo brunch because it's only on sea days- right? And there's a lot more sea days on this cruise! But gosh... no such luck.

I hope everyone gets things booked what they want/etc.! Sending you all pixie dust!
