Ok, thanks for the info!Recently they haven’t. You used to be able to order one day passes from the page for onboard gifts. But this option hasn’t been available for some time.

Same here! Our first EBTA as well as our first B2BWe are doing the EBTA as well. B2B
Great, thanks! I wonder which day will have the Silver Anniversary event, maybe Day 6 since it's both semi-formal and our day at sea.
That’s what I’m thinking. There were no notes from DCL on the sailing as to which day it would be which I was really hoping there would be.Great, thanks! I wonder which day will have the Silver Anniversary event, maybe Day 6 since it's both semi-formal and our day at sea.
I am wondering if they have changed pirate night. When I booked our activities I noted that the pirate makeover was available on Day 5 (Naples), not Day 4.I called DCL to find out the dinner attire schedule:
Day 2: Formal
Day 4: pirate
Day 6: Semi formal
We are taking the train from Barcelona back home to Germany (via a few days in Souther France), but are just buying normal tickets. I think you need to do a lot of train trips to justify the rail pass cost? I was send to a fantastic website with info about how to take trains and get the best prices recently and can totally recommend that for any planning: https://www.seat61.com/index-mobile.htmIs anyone getting a rail pass for this trip? We are “do it ourselves” and usually do a rail pass b/c we will be doing Paris and another country either before or after…
Wow! When I checked in back in January Pirate Night at the BBB was our Rome day and were sad we were going to miss it. Now it is showing on Day 5. I’ll call DCL soon to find out if other nights have changed.I am wondering if they have changed pirate night.

Thank you I use seat61 almost exclusively for my train itineraries! I believe you are correct the rail pass doesn’t make sense over point to point for this trip!We are taking the train from Barcelona back home to Germany (via a few days in Souther France), but are just buying normal tickets.

I am happy to hear that others already know of the Man in Seat 61. I was astounded at how comprehensive that website is!Thank you I use seat61 almost exclusively for my train itineraries! I believe you are correct the rail pass doesn’t make sense over point to point for this trip!
Welcome!Hi everyone
Was excited to see there’s a thread for this cruise - my husband and I are sailing. We only booked a couple of weeks ago and got a pretty good price considering we are so close - I guess a lot of people moved to the AU/NZ cruises as it’s something so new for DCL?!
We are silver so booking our activities on Saturday. I remembered this morning Palo brunch is only on sea days so I’m a little worried there will be no availability left. We have done the Remy dessert experience before and really wanted to try it again but I think it will be on the only sea day so trying to fit that and Palo brunch in on the one day would be a bit much I think! Looking forward to seeing how many drinks tastings there are too. We sat down yesterday and chose the excursions we want to book. It’s only Provence we are unsure of, I’m trying to find a better independent wine tour as non of Disneys offerings really appealed to us.
Our only other slight concern is the flight prices to Barcelona. However, we’ve booked a non refundable sailing so there’s not much more we can do about that.
Looking forward to chatting with you all over the next few months and hearing all of your plans

Welcome!
Welcome!
I have bad news: Palo Brunch is booked out already. Not sure if any gold CC members even got it.
If you miss out on the Remy dessert experience as well, send me a message, we have it booked, but are considering canceling it. We could try coordinating us canceling and you trying picking it up.
We are going to do our own thing in all of the ports, walk around Toulon and Palms, train from the ports to Florence, Rome and Pompeii. Gives us more independence and we live in Europe, so know we can get back easily and just want to get a taste.
As to flights: you could see if prices to other places in Europe are less and then book a separate flight to Barcelona. It take a train from Madrid for example. Needs some buffer time though. Good luck with that fare!
I think it is because of the only one sea day, not that there are that many Platinum cruisers. So, maybe you will get lucky on the ship. It also can't hurt to keep looking for it in the app now and then, people do cancel.Thank you
Thank you and thanks for all of the tips. Wow, I thought it might be hard to get Palo brunch but not that hard. I know they hold some back for people booking on the ship but if the bookings went to the pearl and platinum cruisers, I worry about having a Disney cruise without one of the best parts haha.
I would appreciate if you could let me know if you do cancel the dessert experience, that’s very kind of you to offer! Thanks again
Wow! That’s annoying! Which one was it?I just found out the Port Adventure we had booked in Toulon was cancelled by DCL. Thankfully there were still other options for us to pick from.
