two questions on rotation...

[jeast]

Passporter has suggestions about what rotation to expect based on type of party, young kids, older kids, all adult. They also say that the second night of the 4 day cruise is the repeat night (ex: AAPT) but that it is also pirate night.

I've also read on the boards and other sources that the LAST night of the 4 nighter is the repeat (ex: APTT). I'm so confused.

If passporter is right, is the pirate dinner worth missing for Palos? We could still do the deck party. My understanding is that it is just the menu that is changed. No big deal? Unless there is some special entertainment DURING dinner for the kiddies, we don't want to miss the other restaurants.

So, anyone on the wonder lately can tell me which type of rotation they received? Repeat on second or last?

We were just on the 4 night Wonder May 22nd. Our rotation was AP,PC,Tritons, and Tritons. Pirate night was the third night in Tritons for us. I was unsure how to dress for Tritons on pirate night so I called guest services, they said to wear pirate attire. Our servers were dressed in pirate attire. Not that many people dressed in pirate attire. We felt out of place dresed as pirates. The menu was different but I don't think that there was a special show. I had to run back and forth to the bathroom with DD. So we might have missed it if there was. They gave us red pirates of the caribbean bandanas. That was about it. I would definitely skip it for Palos. The deck party is where the pirate action is.

Does that mean you had Pirate's night on Castaway Cay night?

We also had a 3rd and 4th night repeat rotation ours was TAPP-Pirate night was Castaway Cay night (something to do with being too close to Nassau to let off fireworks on the ship on the 2nd night so they changed it to the 3rd night)

Our pirate night was on Castway Cay night 4 night wonder.

Disney has been shifting things around a lot lately, trying to get the rotation and Pirate night right - staggering dinner start times - etc.

I'd assume your trip will be most like the one of the most recent cruiser to post, but even then, you may get on the ship to find something different.

A lot of people cancel Palo the last night. So much to finish up with packing and such. Just another thing to keep in mind about last night at Palo

If there is a fourth night repeat, which one has the regular restaurant's menu? I would assume that the third night of a rotation would be the pirate menu and the fourth would be that regular restaurant's menu.

Ex: APTT would have Triton's regular menu (which I would not want to miss) on the last night and the pirate menu (which I could care less about) on the third night. Am I right?

Wear pirate wear? Dang, and mine is in the cleaners. I hate when that happens.

 

[iluvallthingsdisney]

You are correct Jeast. In 3rd night is pirate menu and the fourth would be the restaurant's regular menu.

What about on the 3 day cruise?

 

[jeast]

Thanks for the info/clarification. I'm gonna make Palo reservations for the third night and actually have a DATE with DH. No kids...no whining...

I probably won't know how to act and I'll cut up hubby's meat and wipe his face!

jeast-too funny! I thought the same thing our last cruise-funny how easily one adapts to no kids!

Now having said that-we've already booked but this time the kids are coming with us!

Hi
Just reading this thread, and wondering if the 3rd night of the 4 night cruise is always the pirate dinner? If so, would like to make a resi for PALO on the 3rd night.
We sail in Sept, so still ages away, could be many changes in the mean time.
