For the bit earlier when do you recommend I start looking? I know for World dining ressies the listed time is I think 6 but sometimes things start to pop open@5:30 so I'm always up just before then ready to start refreshing@5:30
I’m not sure, but I’d start around 7:15 - 7:30 maybe. I read somewhere on here the Platinum members could start at 7:15am this morning. I’m gold, so tomorrow I’ll start at 7:15
Yes, we transferred them to Costco after we got home. We had to call Costco to have them call DCL. This is the first time we have used Costco since reopening after Covid. All of our weird credits for cancelled cruises just made it too confusing with Costco. Will be happy with the extra kick back.I’m planning on using my two placeholders tomorrow. I thought the only way to use them was by calling Disney. Or you turned over your placeholder to Costco within the 30 days of booking? If that’s the case.. I’ll kick myself for missing out lol
Thank you
I heard that they opened almost an hour early today. Not always the case. Many times not until 8:00.
If you are interested in specific cruise pricing, I can give you an idea of what it is now (I am Platinum).
. I have probably paid more for a cruise by deciding on it six months out versus planning ahead.What reservations open at midnight for the cruise and how far out. Just want to be prepared.
If you are a new cruiser, 75 days for Port Adventures, specialty dining, and tastings. Then 30 days for Port Arrival Time, Princess Gathering (and other certain things that are cruise specific like Meet and Greets on Marvel Day at Sea).
I didn’t know that you could book your placeholders through Costco. I will make note of this after our next cruise and do the same. Is there any difference between booking directly with Disney versus Costco besides the kickback from Costco? If for some reason we cannot use our placeholders offer a refund?
Thank you! 3 kids ages 12., 10, 8. Plus 1 adult. Me with my grandkids.If you are interested in specific cruise pricing, I can give you an idea of what it is now (I am Platinum).
If you don’t make note of what the price is before booking begins, you will not realize the increase in price
Maybe that’s one reason I have thought Disney was so expensive (now I know it is that way all the time). It wasn’t so much extra when I started in 2007.
Any cruise you are interested in knowing the price? Itinerary, cabin category, and guest # and ages needed for quote.
The “Family” verandahs have a Murphy Bed in addition to the twin bed hidden in the back of the sofa and the upper berth above that. (If each kid wants a personal mattress and Nana wants her own mattress, too).
Yes, you can transfer your onboard bookings and placeholders to Costco. You have to call them and then they have to call DCL to make your actual booking. We always have room number we want, etc ready to give them. Refund of placeholders still comes from DCL. If you are an executive member, the amount of your cruise also factors into your yearly rebate. Any changes have to be done through Costco. You cannot do it through DCL directly. Hope this helps.
Thank you - really appreciate this.
Thanks for this. On the Wish we did Family room, it was nice. I think it's interesting that the supposedly upscale consierge cabins have the double pullout sofa- the other configuration is better I think.
Teens are a little more expensive than kids. I used 8 and 10 for ages. The break is when they are 13. For this category, the teen is $1946.
Sharing a traditional sofa bed was not a plus in our book, either.
