    Would you get a MB+?

    I found one on sale for $10 at the Character Wearhouse and was happy with it on our cruise last week but only because my back/neck problems cause me to hate wearing a lanyard. My other family members did not see a benefit.

    Sail-A-Wave

    Another vote for hanging out on deck 4. We love watching the actual sail away, and deck 4 is the best place for that.

    How many more days until your Disney cruise - Part 3

    4 days! It's been a while, we're excited to return to DCL.

    What all is there to do in St. Maarten/Martin?

    There are some great hiking trails by the beautiful coast. Rent a car to explore (it's one of the islands that drives on the right)

    How early do you book your cruise?

    We're very flexible, and book when there is a good deal ($200 p.p.p.n.). Please note that many sailings never get a good deal, and booking as soon as they come out is cheapest.

    Palo Buffet vs. Table Service

    We've enjoyed Palo brunch before and after the changes. I'm one of the few who prefers the new way of doing Palo brunch. I felt that the service was more attentive, and the food was still wonderful and plentiful.

    Progreso Shore Excursions Recommendations

    Research shows that the protests started in late November, but are still going on. "The people who live in the area are protesting that the government is not sharing the admission fees and have blocked the access road to the archeological site" We're going early February and really hope it...

    MDR servers

    Agreed. We've spoken to a crew member (one of the automatic gratuity positions) who was retiring after working for DCL for 10 years. At first, we thought he was just leaving DCL and moving on, but no, he was very clear, he no longer had to work, and yes he had a house, wife, and kids. He...

    Northern Europe or Mediterranean…what cruise lines have you preferred?

    Besides DCL, we very much enjoy sailing with Holland America. Great itineraries, and we feel that service and food are up to par with DCL.

    Just off the Magic... some random musings...

    How was the food at the MDR? We've been eyeing the Magic for a while, but we weren't that impressed with the food our last two cruises in 2022, while we loved it on all sailings before that.

    Predictions or rumors about Magic 2023 dry dock?

    Love what I've seen and read of the new spaces. Makes me want to sail on the Magic again :)

    Sailing on Fantasy twice in 2 months

    That would be too much for me. We like to mix up the ships and have at least a year between repeating a ship.

    Summer 2024 Prices

    As expected: Crazy summer prices, but reasonable in September. 4-night on the Wonder to Lighthouse Point on September 9 for $1,690 for two adults in an inside stateroom. That's my usual that I'm willing to pay for DCL. $211 per person per night.

    Is 3 nights enough

    For me, scheduling is more important than the length of the cruise. DCL is awesome, no matter how long or short. One time, a 14-night cruise worked for our schedule, so that's what we booked. We loved it! If we can get a good deal for during Spring break, Christmas break, etc. we've booked a...

    If you could change one thing about DCL, what would it be?

    Two things that would get me to pay Disney's prices more often: better food and more variety in the itineraries.
