    Resort--->Port DCL Transfer Boarding times

    I noticed when I did check in it didn't have me select an arrival time but the boarding pass it gave me at the end had port arrival time of 10:30 and boarding group 3 so I was pretty sure it was going to be early. I got a letter at CSR the afternoon before the cruise saying what time to have...

    Resort--->Port DCL Transfer Boarding times

    I cruised on the Dream last week. We stayed at CSR and boarded the bus at 8:16. We stopped at 2 more resorts to pick up folks and headed towards the port at 8:49. We arrived at the port at 10:12, were in the tent waiting for test results at 10:38 and got the clear to sail at 10:50.

    Passenger counts this week?

    Just off the Dream today and I was told 2200 and that is where they planned on keeping it for a bit. I was on the Fantasy in September with 1200 and it was a cool experience but I actually enjoyed this a bit more. Enough people that things felt lively and there was that energy in the game shows...

    Rental Fins at Castaway

    I think it was $12. I'm going in a couple weeks and will rent just fins again and will pay more attention.

    Rental Fins at Castaway

    We bring our own snorkels and just rent fins. It's cheaper than the full package. I've done it pre and post Covid and it's never been an issue.

    Disney cruise line motorcoach transfer info (MCO, MCO Hyatt & WDW Resorts)

    How strange! Last week at CSR they came and got our luggage at 6:40am from our room and I didn't see it again until it was outside my room on the ship.

    New "Navigators"

    I had read reports about the lack of 1820 society but I was on the Sept 18th Fantasy and noticed multiple activities for 1820 society in the daily activities.

    Everything I have seen has said nasal swab but the shallow one not the brain tickle.

    What time is the Earliest DCL bus from MCO to port?

    I'm booked on the Sept 18th sailing and just got an email that says that motorcoach service will begin at approx 9:20am and run until 2:00pm from MCO. It also notes if you are staying at Hyatt Regency MCO that bell services will begin collecting luggage at 8am. Interestingly it says for those...

    Trip Insurance

    Yes we include the cruise fare as I want it covered for more reasons than positive Covid at the port and since DCL has been changing things frequently and with very little notice in some instances. It's peace of mind for us.

    Trip Insurance

    We always purchase cancel for any reason insurance. We pick a plan that covers medical and emergency evacuation coverage as well. Some will cover pre-existing conditions if purchased within a certain time frame. We also cruise during hurricane season so it covers cancellation and/or change of...

    DCL-Booked Resort in MDE?

    I had the same issue. I tried adding the reservation manually into MDE using my cruise confirmation number and (of course) it said unable to locate this reservation and listed a phone number to call for assistance. I called and choose the option for needing technical help with MDE. Friendly CM...

    Trip Insurance

    We paid $206 for cancel for any reason insurance for 2 adults. Rep said they treat Covid like any other illness so no exclusions. Bought within 2 weeks of initial deposit so pre existing conditions waived.

    Fantansy Refund

    I got a partial refund as we going to proceed on the 4 night. I called on the 25th and confirmed we still wanted to go. Since we had used funds from previous canceled cruises to pay for part of this one I asked how much was being refunded to my card and how much was going on my onboard account...

    Re-doing your SafePassage for a 7 day to 4 day cruise change

    This is exactly what happened to me. My original 7 night dropped off after the switch to 4 night was announced and I just left it alone. Last night I got 2 emails from Safe Passage out of the blue saying my status had been updated for pre-sail and embarkation. When I logged in the cruise was...

    Whats your new protocol's silver lining?

    So I read you can still do the Castaway 5K just on your own anytime during your day at Castaway and you still get the medal. This could be a big plus for me as I've always wanted to do it but it would have held up the rest of my traveling party and I'm not a very good runner so was too self...
