Disney Dream, March 25, 2019 - 4-Night Bahamian Cruise

[ForMyBoys]

I’ll start the thread! We are excited to have booked this one. We’ve never been on the Dream so are excited to try it! We will then have sailed all the existing DCL ships! We will also be gold castaway members after this cruise!

We did the same itinerary on our first cruise in 2014 and we were hooked! I have three boys that will be in the Vibe, Edge and Oceaneera club (15, 12 and 8). Who’s sailing with us?!

We are also on this Cruise and I admit it will be our 3rd time on the Dream and we have only cruised with Disney on the Dream. I might want to try the Fantasy one day but not the Wonder or Magic. I like the bigger ships better. I can get really bad motion sickness and so far I have been great on the dream with over the counter meds. We are also on the same room as last time 5520. This is a 2 porthole room with spilt layout. We like the large rooms. Our first cruise was on room 8504 which is all the way forward and it was a huge room. It is only the 3 of us(Me, Husband and Daughter (11 but 12 at time of cruise). I am ready to start packing but way to early.

We got two connecting porthole rooms forward on Deck 7. I think 7010/7012 but I’m on my phone so doing this from memory. My hubby prefers a verandah, but the boys and I prefer the large portholes and since it’s cheaper we decided to go that route this time.

Are you staying at Disney before and/or after the cruise?

No we will fly in the night before and stay at the Hyatt. We will then fly out on Friday if a flight is late enough. My daughter is on spring break so we have to get back.

Got it! Yeah our kids are on spring break too but we will likely go gung-ho and fly in Friday night and out on Sunday so we will get time at the parks.

I read they now have the new Beauty and the Beast show on the Dream and I’m very excited to see it!!

 

[mischief32]

I know I am excited to see this show also. I have read good things about it

Welcome aboard. I must say my daughter is looking to maybe find others to hang with and it is nice to see all the families so far.

Just booked this cruise -- will be three of us -- myself, husband and daughter who will be 12 at time of cruise. It's our second Disney cruise -- sailed on the Wonder to Alaska July 2017. Very excited to sail on the Dream. We'll also probably do a couple of days at the park prior to the cruise. Looking forward to lots of conversation prior to sailing and any advice is welcomed.

We at least acknowledge boys -- but I'm sure both will be figuring out the talking a lot more in the next year!

I'm joining in! This will be our 5th Disney cruise (3rd time on the Dream). We've done the Wonder and Magic and hopefully one day we can afford the Fantasy!!

Can't wait for the cruise! Was wondering if anyone ever used this site: fe-gifts.com? Looks like you can sign up for fish extender groups -- it looks to be a nice alternative to the facebook groups. Doesn't look like our cruise has any groups started yet.

My daughter will also be 12 at the time of the cruise but she has noticed boys now in a big way. I can say that has been a new development lately.

I'm sure we will meet at the club -- so glad there will be girls (and boys) her age on the cruise!

I just reserved my room yesterday! I will be traveling with my husband, son who will be 14 and my daughter who will be 12. This is our first time on a Disney Cruise and basically my kids first cruise (my son was one year old on our last cruise). We will probably fly in a day or two early and just relax at the beach and maybe go to Kennedy Space Center. I'm thinking about doing the Atlantis Excursion, I've always wanted to go there.
