Hmm.. I dont have a June 8th... do you mean June 7th?
No, it's definitely the 8th. On page 1 it looks like a Platinum booked the same cruise in a category 5E.

Nice, glad you got through. My Costco person is still on hold with Disney...she did say a guy in her pod got through to Disney before her, though, so maybe it was your agent!Success with Costco! Thanks goodness I didn't stay on hold 2.5 hours after I got through to Costco. I didn't ask for the per person costs knowing how swamped everything is! I will update the 5/20 date when I get my invoice.

Now the question is are these prices decent enough to say "Let's go on a Disney cruise!" ...We don't know. Our TA told us her backlog was SO BIG that we had to pick our top 2 and this is what we chose.
That's what I wondered. We are NOT using a placeholder this time, so I didn't take any chances and called Costco directly (we need the Costco Cash to make this cruise happen). Almost 5 hours ago. She is still on hold with Disney...

Thanks for the info! Good luck tomorrow! Hoping we'll have success soon here!I am wondering about this too, but I am holding out hope with the few reports I have seen on this thread of past success. I asked the agent today and he didn't mention losing the gift card. I am taking my chances when I book for my in-laws tomorrow because online booking is way too tempting compared to doing this all again. I should probably have split us up to book two today, but I just don't want to deal with any confusion with my in-laws. They already think I am way intense about planning trips!
I just got my call from my Costco agent at 11:30, so hopefully you will hear soon. I got off the phone as quickly as possible to let him move on to the next booking. He said he got busy tones for an hour and dialed over 1000 times before he got through. I made sure to let him know I appreciated his help and to wish him luck for the rest of today and tomorrow. Also, our Costco Gift Card will be for 8.1% of the total fare.
Probably! That is so funny.
Got though and booked! Yay!

That's awesome!!
I'm still trying to just get through, all I get is a busy signal
Was hoping we'd finally be on the same cruise but no, I'm looking at the Icy Strait cruise two weeks before yours.
I'm still on hold if you want me to book for you when I get through?Been trying to get through all day. I guess I'll book online tomorrow when it opens to general public. Does anyone know what time booking opens online? I've always had a travel agent do it but decided to book myself this time. Is it midnight, like online check-in?
You should be able to go in and change that - even with a TA booking. The system automatically defaults to late so maybe she forgot to request main.I put a request in through a DU TA for the first time. They assigned me Jana. I just checked my Disney reservations and it looks like she got through because I see the two dates I asked about listed. One surprising thing is that I requested main seating for dining and it’s showing second seating.
