Just wondering, has anyone been able to book their free cruise yet? Has anyone been on the 3 night bahamas cruise with Disney? If so, how was it?
I think you have to complete your ABD trip before you can book the cruise. I've been on the 3 night Bahamas cruise and did not enjoy it. But I'm sure my experience is not typical, since the seas were rough and we were unable to dock at Castaway Cay. Even if the weather conditions had been different, I think I still would have been disappointed. Everybody I'd ever spoken too told me how much fun Disney cruises are and I had high expectations, but it just wasn't fun to me. It was my first cruise and I've come to the conclusion that I'm not a cruise person.
That's a great suggestion. Maybe we will spend a few days at Disney World as well as take the cruise. Might as well make a week out of it if we're gonna pay to fly down there.
I have been on five Disney cruises with two more booked (including a 15-night). I agree cruising is not for everyone, but a free 3-day is a great way to find out if you like cruising or not! I love it because Disney just really knows how to provide great service! Don't go into it thinking it is like an ABD trip where it is go go go all the time. I am never bored, but it is a slower pace. The shows are great, there are fun adult activities at night, I don't go to Nassau, I stay onboard near the pool with a book and the drink of the day. On the cruise board there is a great sticky with tons of information for first time cruisers, and people are really helpful over there if you have more questions. Have a great cruise!
Hi Everbody! Total newbie here! We just signed up for our very first ABD in December, and I had a question about the free cruise promo. Are there any blackout dates for its use? I was thinking of using it during my kids' vacation dates in April 2011.......... Thanks!

And therein lies one of the best features of ABD!Guess I'll have to wait to get the certificate to see when the black out dates are..... We are taking the Backstage Magic tour on July 18th, in honor of our 20th anniversary. DH had wanted to go to the Caribbean, but realized that it would not be a vacation for me since I would have to plan every detail and listen to the kids' endless questions of what we are doing and when. BTW, DS is 14 and DD is 10.
