Listed below are some comments from list members on how this list
has enhanced their Disney Cruise vacations.
"We saved hundreds of dollars on drinks on our cruise from the tip
we received on the list
regarding the ability to bring our own alcohol/soda on board. 13 of
us
cruised over Thanksgiving and we had our own cocktail parties on our
decks versus
paying cruise ship prices for each drink."
"You gain the experiences of all who have
traveled before you. Our first cruise was a few short years ago and
tidbits learned from other cruisers have proven invaluable and made
for
a much nicer trip for a bunch of newbies! As second time cruisers in
March, we still look to the experiences of others in order to
maximize
our enjoyment.
For example, we discovered that a closet door shoe bag can be used
as a
toiletries, cosmetics, medication storage unit when hanging on the
bathroom door of the cabin (a real space saver). A small portable
fan
can be used as a white noise device to help with any hallway noise
if
too close to an elevator. We learned about the shopping
opportunities
that awaited us on the Eastern cruise. I'm still trying to
comprehend
out how much I saved on my liquor purchases on St. Thomas (eg. $9.00
for a liter of Kaluha versus $28.00 at home)
Information like what can be found in this list is invaluable ;-)"
"I found out about making reservations at the Spa and Palo's (on the
Disney Cruise) as soon as we got on the ship. And about the jogging
deck. And about how the children's clubs worked.
What I liked the most was the support and encouragement, and feeling
like I knew something of what I was getting into. I'm the type that
likes to know all about my upcoming experience so I can spend my
time enjoying it (instead of having to figure it out and then being
about to emjoy it)."
"I learned that if an excursion is full through your cruise line,
check it out with the
owner of the excursion or elsewhere."
"Tim asked a question of the week about parasailing. I enjoyed
reading the
responses. I just got off the phone from booking parasailing for my
dh
and I on our May 1st Eastern Caribbean Cruise, and it will be our
first time parasailing."
