    DCL HONEYMOON!!

    Be on the lookout for the night when they have the Newlywed Game (they usually call it "Match Your Mate") in the adults-only area. They choose three couples and structure it just like the classic game show; they always look for a couple who have been together a long time, a couple who are newly...

    Random question

    I just did this last weekend for our upcoming cruise! I'd received a few gift cards for Christmas and remembered, now that we're paid in full, to put the gift cards on our account. DCL will be happy to apply the gift cards at on-board credit over the phone before you sail. It's done as a gift...

    First timers Honeymoon Cruise September 18

    My husband and I did a Western Caribbean cruise for our honeymoon back in 2009! Fond memories, and we got bitten by the cruise bug so hard that we're about to take our fifth cruise in a couple of months with our first baby ;) There is a good chance you'll get Palo/Remy - I'd say basically a...

    Help with ocean view stateroom selection for Alaska

    Just chiming in to say that when we sailed Alaska on DCL in 2013, we stayed two rooms away from the 9C you're looking at in 2614. We loved it. We spent lots of time on the public decks and have never sailed with a verandah in five cruises. Maybe we don't know what we're missing, but it's...

    Cruising with an 8-month-old Baby

    Hoping to stick to her schedule as best we can, but be somewhat relaxed about exactly when and where naps happen in case she's not thrilled about adjusting to sleeping in the same room with us in a pack and play for the week. We have connecting rooms with my parents, too, hoping that'll help...

    Cruising with an 8-month-old Baby

    We had this cruise booked a long time ago an originally intended to take it last year. We've been battling infertility and pregnancy losses since late 2013, and IVF was in the cards last year. The thought was that if I managed to get pregnant we'd move the cruise to 2017, and if I didn't we'd...

    Cruising with an 8-month-old Baby

    Hello! We'll be taking our fifth DCL cruise in two short months aboard the Magic for Halloween. This will be our first cruise as parents, however! Our daughter will be 8 months old when we sail, and my parents will be joining us. We've researched a lot of what we need to know about...

    Feedback on our Alaska plans so far please

    OP, here is how the husband and I spent3 days in Vancouver before/after our cruise: Day 1: Stanley Park. There is a great bike rental place just a couple of blocks away from the park. We walked from our hotel (the Westin Grand) to Canada Place, strolled along the seawall all the way to the...

    Secrets, Tips and Tricks for Alaska Cruises

    I went to Alaska during the first-ever summer of Pixar nights instead of pirate nights. Not too many people dressing up, although there were some kids wearing Pixar gear. The party was cute, although it was indoors. Beyond that, yes. One formal night, one semi-formal, the rest casual...

    Alaska cruise info-Vancouver, cruise excursions, clothes, etc

    I sailed to Alaska during the summer of 2013, so I can't speak to plans for next summer, but I can tell you to look on hotwire and priceline in the months preceding your cruise for a good deal on a hotel. While I didn't find a good deal in 2013 on the Pan Pacific, my husband and I wound up at...

    Fantasy NYE Cruise 12/27/2014

    Sending love and hugs to all in this group. I will likely be joining you this week. I feel joy at the prospect of doing so, but I wish it were under other circumstances. My husband and I have taken three Disney cruises before - most recently, we went to Alaska in summer 2013. This cruise...

    Alaska Excursions--post your reviews here!

    This is a risk you run with many excursions in Alaska. The nice thing about going to Misty Fjord is that even though Ketchikan is extremely rainy, the weather in the fjord may prove very different. To be honest, if there's an excursion you want to do...I would just book it, especially if you...

    Alaska Excursions--post your reviews here!

    We booked this excursion last summer and it was our absolute favorite excursion of the entire trip. I got teary-eyed as we flew through the absolutely beautiful and surreal landscape around Misty Fjord. We booked our excursion independently through Island Wings, and I cannot say enough...

    Alaska Excursions--post your reviews here!

    Here was our (pretty sweet) day in Juneau. We had nothing booked when we walked off the boat. Adjust as necessary, since we don't have kids: -Take the Blue Bus shuttle ($8 each way) to Mendenhall around 8:30 AM. -Spent a few hours wandering around the Mendenhall glacier's trails and the...

    Confused about dining...

    Yes. some people like to request specific rotations for this reason because they want to eat in a place with a "fancier" ambience...but it really doesn't matter :) The buffet is always available, and will be a sit-down experience for dinner with selected items from each of the MDR menus.
