We'll be taking our 3 and 5 year olds on our first Disney cruise. Too excited. I want to get the passports done and out of the way soon.

Just cancelled our RC Cruise for this one with our almost 3 and 1 year old. Very excited though wish we made the decision sooner as Early Dinner is not available. We figured we will just cross our fingers and keep calling to make sure we are waitlisted.
Hi! I'm surprising my daughters (5&8)! I only live about 30 min from the city. I'm going to tell them we're going to NYC for a surprise, they're going to freak out!! They ask to go on a DC all the time!My kids are 14 and 7 and hers are 7 and 4. My daughter is the biggest Disney fan so she is going to freak out when she finds out! We're going to attempt to wait until Halloween to tell them so that the wait isn't so unbearable for them (like it is for me right now lol).
My kids are really into YouTube and love watching videos of parents surprising their kids with Disney cruises, so my hubby and are are going to call them into the living saying we found the best Disney surprise video but it'll Actually be a video for them
We haven't been to Disney world yet so it's gonna be amazing

Did you just send email? I did not find anywhere to do the sign ups on the cruise site.Hi bostonluke,
Just like you we are also paid full. I did that a couple of weeks ago. I will be online with DCL at 1 minute after midnight this Saturday so I can make our reservations for Palo brunch and dinner. This cruise is one special cruise for my wife and I. We are truly looking forward to it.
We are concierge so it was a little confusing for us having never done it before. They responded after two days saying they would put our requests in at 120 days. We are not asking for one spe ific cabana so we feel like we can get one... from what I have read the only other things we want do not sell out so it is not a big deal. Thanks again.HI Bostonluke,
You will have to log on to DCL website to make your reservations, (If you have not signed up yet you can register on the DCL site). That said, your choices will not show up until your cruise is paid for in full and its time for you to make your reservations.
If you have completed 10 or more Disney cruises you are a Platinum Castaway Cay Member and you can book activities 120 days in advance.
If you have completed 5 to 9 Disney cruises you are a Gold Castaway Cay Member and you can book activities 105 days in advance.
If you have completed 1 to 4 Disney cruises you are a Silver Castaway Cay Member and you can book activities 90 days in advance.
I'm not sure how many days out you can make reservations if your a first time cruiser. I'm sure if you call DCL they can assist you with any questions you may have.
If all of the online activities are already taken don't worry. You can check with guest services when you get on board and they can help you with where to go and who to see. Most of the time they put aside spots for just this reason. But make sure that is the first place you go upon boarding the ship. These activities fill up quickly.
Best of luck with getting the activities you are looking for. I'll sprinkle some pixy dust your way.....
