I was going to post the same thing. So when John, when???? Not that I'm too excited or anything. I'm thinking the last Alaska cruise combined w/ the repo to LA.
I'm very interested in Alaska too. I've never done a cruise and want my first expereince to be with DCL. My DH said that he's only interested in Alaska for a cruise. Alaska is on both of our bucket lists.
I'm looking at the Mexican Riveria cruises. That sounds interesting to me. I'll be in WDW when the window opens to book. I was hoping to place a request with Dreams before I left and check via email down while I'm there.
Ask Tracy is doing "research" - according to the Dreams unlimited site:
"Bookings open to the general public on Sept. 28, 2009. Castaway Club members who've completed five or more sailings with Disney Cruise Line, can book as early as Sept. 21, 2009. "
I remember last year, I waited until the night before the day we could book and Dreams wasn't taking anymore requests until after they finished with the list they had. Tracy did take care of me and I got my trans-atlantic cruise for 2010 booked on the first day.

No information on pricing yet, but we did just put up a waitlist request form for both the Alaska Cruises and the Mexican Riviera Cruises (including all repo cruises).
If you have already asked a Dreams Agent about being put on the waitlist for a cruise please make sure they know you are submitting one of these forms so than can watch for it to come into our system and 'get credit' for it if you book.
If we get the response we think we might on these we probably will stop taking waitlist requests well before the booking date(s)....so try to get your request in early.
I would ask that you NOT request a quote from DU if you plan on also doing it yourself or going through another TA. If people book multiples quotes for these sailings the price will jump fast and that's not fair to everyone.
I know everyone is looking for the lowest pricing possible on these cruises. Just trust that however you choose to book (DU, another TA, directly with DCL) you will get the best rate possible.
I'm so glad that you posted this link John because I didn't know what to do. My usual DU agent let me know that she doesn't book cruises. I had already looked on your site earlier but didn't see the Alaska waitlist.
Hopefully we'll be celebrating our 15th wedding anniversary on a cruise to Alaska.
Now THIS is a service I think could REALLY set Dreams apart from the rest! That, and having Kevin send us all samples with each podcast from the restaurants he's reviewing that week, LOL!
