I dialed in right as the clock hit 10 and went right to a CM. All booked for the East Coast cruise!!

 

[JLitfin]

all booked, got my first choice stateroom, decided to go with 10A in order to give us the split bath. I got connected at 10:30 and was finished at 11:35. I'm so excited.

Good Luck to everyone still waiting.

I prefer split bath, too.

A little dreaming while everyone is waiting... wouldn't it be great if, once everyone was booked onto the two Member Cruises, DVC took a poll of each cruise "community" to get a feel for what was of most interest to the guests on that particular Member Cruise to help inform what the special guests, entertainment, activities, and gifts would be in order to create a more customized, personalized experience? Well, a gal can dream, right?

 

[DizDays]

Oy. Finally made it into queue.... but we were hoping for a cat v for the west cost cruise and I'm seeing its already at limited availability

What are you looking at that tells you the availability?

I dream about more information before we get on the ship!

Go to the Member site for the cruise you want.

Woohoo! Finally booked! Really excited for the whole thing..cruising out of NYC, going to Bermuda, first MC..

Was on hold for about 58 minutes before I talked to someone. Got our first choice cabin, 9B on Deck 2. Our agent was awesome, although it took me a second to realize someone picked up because he sounded just like the guy talking between the songs on hold! Said they are about 30% full on both sailings..so good news to everyone waiting!

LOL - I remember the last one! You are so right!

 

[Mathmagicland]

I have been cut off twice thus far this morning after getting the Welcome Home. I am finally through and listening to the on hold music...hoping I do not get dropped again. Need some pixie dust my way LOL.

 

[swooshbear]

Got through on my first try right at 7am chose my category and gave all of our info to the CM. When she put me on hold before taking my credit card info, the hold seemed abnormally long and after awhile it disconnected. Nothing but busy signals so I tried the online chat function and that CM confirmed our booking was still in the system, the original CM would be calling later to get the payment.

CM calls about 20 minutes later, apologizes for the technical difficulties and literally as I read the first four digits of the card, the call dropped again. Another call back and we are finally booked for the West Coast cruise. I need a nap or a drink now!

 

[bcwife76]

Woohoo, all booked!!! I called in at 7:30 pacific time and waited 55 minutes on hold (after redialing for nearly 10 minutes in a row). Booked on the Bermuda Oct 2019 cruise!!! Since we have other cruises booked right now (3!!!!) and are still paying them off we went with the cheapest room category we could get, 11B mid ship. Have not been in a Standard Inside since our kids were 4&6 (they'll be 11&8 on this cruise) so this could be interesting....... Looking forward to hanging out on deck 4 a lot This will be our first time on the Magic, so excited!!!!!!!!!!!!

Are you hoping for West Coast? Would love to sail with you again!

 

[DizDays]

Will there be Member Cruise specific links created for meet ups, exchanges, or fish extenders?

 

[Mathmagicland]

Yes, that’s the one I’m trying for, after an hour on hold, I am finally speaking with someone. Waiting to pay...so on hold again, but I think I am finally booked on it from @swooshbear’s post...won’t be comfortable until it gets completed.

 

[bcwife76]

Just started a cruise meet thread for the October 2019 cruise!

I think as long as you confirm your choice with the CM before giving your payment, you should be good. But it was definitely a little stressful for awhile.
