..."got to be a better way..."! Agree!!!Well, my husband's patience is better than mine. I gave up and took a shower. (We have a delivery coming and I needed to be presentable.) He got through about 30 minutes after I gave up. He's now been on hold for 45 minutes. Took us over 400 calls, 8 dropped calls and 90 minutes just to get hold music. There has got to be a better way...
Where did you see that? It's not on DCL site. Only Sept 11, 18, 25th.... The DVC cruise is not on there..???Interestingly the DCL website and the DVC website show a different order in the port stops.

Following! I'm planning to buy third-party insurance to get coverage for flights, etc. I assume it will be easier since we are planning to pay entirely with cash.Insurance question: we have always booked 3rd party insurance which REALLY came in handy when we canceled the last cruise right before the covid shut down as we got our money back instead of a credit. Is that possible for cruises booked through DVC? We’ve done several DCL but not a DVC one. Also, will this specialty cruise count towards our DCL status?

Perfect. Thank you!!Yes it counts toward status!
We have always gotten 3rd party insurance for the DVC cruises.
It is my understanding that third party insurance won't touch this because it is through DVC. You can only get insurance through DVC. That has been my experience in the past. The DVC insurance changed in January 2022 to include cash payments and not just the points.Insurance question: we have always booked 3rd party insurance which REALLY came in handy when we canceled the last cruise right before the covid shut down as we got our money back instead of a credit.

Were you paying cash for the entire cruise. My experience has been when using points third party insurance wouldn't touch the DVC cruiseYes it counts toward status!

Oh no!! There are still categories listed as available on the site, but they were definitely not updating that.After trying for 2 1/2 hours, an hour on hold, I was just told the cruise is sold out. I'm not seeing this posted anywhere else.
Total time for me was a bit less than an hour and a half. For some time, we had two phones, and we had 5 or 6 dropped calls. Tom left to go to vets after I got in which was probably 30-45 minutes before I spoke with Penelope. Once we talked, I don’t think it took even 10 minutes.
We wanted HA OV with veranda, not family sized, and there are about 15 of them. I am happy to say that we did get one of them.
Patience and time are needed. It’s a big ship, I hope there’s room for everyone who really want to go.
Ours too!Reservation is already listed on DCL website
