Wishes Grandgathering

[Carrie Ellis]

Hello all,

I posted this under Theme parks thread but I want to put this here to:

I am in a sad situation. We were going to do the Wishes Cruise for the Grandgathering. Well when I scheduled they said have the other parties call by Aug. 6th a pay their part. Well now it is booked and my family of 6 (whom I have paid for) will not get to go because my cousin did not call soon enough.

My cousin will not care if they don't go but I do. I really wanted this for my kids.

Is there anyone who has booked for Sept 20th cruise..Wishes?

If so could I move our group onto your GG#? It would be the 6 of us and I could just say that our group did not add up and we are going to switch over to friends. It would not cost or trouble you at all because I would do the calling.

Thank you so much and I hope there is someone out there going!!

there is still time for your cousin to call if the deadline is August 6th, no? why not do one of two things... get on your cousin's case and reallllly encourage him/her to make that call, or, make the call for them... if you realllllly want to go, just book it and hope your cousin comes up w/the cash or "sell" their seats to someone else... no?

It is sold out. They did call to pay and there is no space. I don't understand why they would only let us book (6) and reserve for the rest of the group. Does that not miss the point of a Grandgathering? It was suppose to be convenient by allowing everyone to pay on their own. What is the point if it sells out before they call. They did not tell me this. The only thing I was told was pay before August 6.

Okay, but even if they take away your six seats since your group is now not big enough--and what lousy communications on their part!--that doesn't do Disney any good, because 6 isn't enough for any other group. Have you talked to a manager on this one? This just doesn't seem right at all. Of course, with the trouble my MIL had booking a Grand Gathering, it doesn't surprise me too much. They are pushing this Grang Gathering concept in all of their marketing materials right now and in my opinion they still have a LOT of kinks to work out.


Good luck! I know how disapointed you must be because we didn't get to do ours either.
