Thanks Passporter!

[DDreamer]

I just wanted to take a moment to praise the authors of The Passporter for their EXCELLENT book! I just got it 3 days ago and am already done reading it from cover to cover (it's 208 pages long!). For those of you who don't have it, GET IT!!! It is so full of useful information and written in a somewhat editorial way which makes reading it a lot of fun. I just wanted to let everyone know about this great book if they haven't heard of it yet. Thanks!!

I ordered mine from Waldenbook's (they didn't have it in stock), but it was about $5 more than buy.com. Wow, wish I had known about that site before I ordered it. Oh well, it was a fantastic piece of reading material!

Thanks everyone!!

I've just ordered my very own Passporter due to this thread, and I've never cruised before........

What a great tool for us newbies!!!

 

[Auntie Bon]

What exactly is the Passporter? Other than a book that is. What kinds of information is in there?

Here Auntie Bon- take a look!

It will help me to learn more about cruising before I take the plunge, and hopefully quite a bit of Disney Cruise Line cruises.

I feel that I need to 'bone up' on the ins and outs of cruises, because I've never done one before, and I'm interested in learning as much as I can before I take the plunge.

I hope that this helps.......

This book is even more than what the description says. I cruised on DCL last year and I learned so much from getting this book a couple of weeks ago. I just wish I had this book for our cruise last year! There are so many hints and tips, tons of excursion and island information, where to go, where not to go, ship information, stateroom information, what to pack......I could go on and on. I read it front to back in one weekend and I still leaf through it just to brush up because I find that I've missed something!

Oh, and I forgot the best part........the whole book only deals with DISNEY CRUISE LINE! My friend bought Cruise Vacations for Dummies, and although it's a very good book, it doesn't deal with just one line, therefore it can be very confusing.

I figured I could learn everything I needed to know about DCL from this board, but when I kept hearing all you veterans buying the book, I joined the crowd! Now I'm waiting for mine!!!

There is a Disney Cruise Line Manual called "Mickey's Magical Cruise Guide" that is available online. You can get it as a word document by following this link. www.wdwig.com/mdcg.doc There is an HTML document also (same info) at www.wdwig.com/cruise/Dcruise.shtml I don't remember how long it is but its over 70 pages! With lots of great info.

I joined the band wagon also. Looks like it's going to be a terrific book!

He is one of the contributors in the passporter.

I downloaded the information last week and read it "cover to cover" one night.

I also ordered my passporter yesterday, now I just have to patiently wait for it. I couldn't beat the price with free shipping and no tax!! It was a win-win situation. I even refrained from paying for quick shipping when I saw how quickly everyone on this thread had gotten theirs.

Patience is a virtue, patience is a virtue, patience is a virtue........

If I say it enough, maybe it will sink in!

Ordered the Passporter Monday night, March 31st and it arrived today April 5 (5 day FREE delivery).

I also ordered my Passporter on 3/31 and received it in the mail today!
In fact, DH was really impatient for me to get the package open so that he could take a look!!
I have a feeling that there might be a DCL cruise in my future.....

Same deal at Buy.com, also......... I'll be returning there for a good look around!!
