From your lips to McAlpin's ears!!
I'd like to think that we, along with SoccermomCheri's family, are some of DCL's best customers. As I stated before, we've been on numerous concierge level cruises with them, and spent a ton of $$ doing so. And on the Mexico cruises, we got... ZILCH!
We've already booked an acceptable alternative (back-to-back east coast Wonder cruises), but I still feel like we got hosed, so I wanted to vent some more.
I think we were unfairly overlooked for the Mexican Riviera bookings, but we still maintained a loyalty to DCL and booked not one, but two Wonder cruises for that same timeframe. Heck, DCL oughta at least pick up our airfare, what with us living in California (where the Magic will be), but still travelling all the way to Florida to cruise with the Mouse...
Ok so that's not gonna happen.
Maybe one of the Disney CM's who works closely enough to Tom McAlpin will read this thread and forward the link to him. We've spent enough dough on your cruiseline to feed a third world country for 2 years, Tom! Throw us a bone, here...
Or I guess I could forward it to him myself since I have his email address.
I was thinking about everyone's problems, like Beano, last night instead of sleeping. Beano, if you really have Tom A. e-mail, this is what I think you should tell him. I may even start a thread on this all by itself.
I was thinking of the OVERCROWDED local preschool. People were waiting outside in JAN in the cold for several nights so they could registar their kids for the next year.....read MORE DEMAND THAN SUPPLY. Sound familar (like Disney cruise suites).
This is how the local preschool solved the problem.....tiered enrollment...existing students one week.....then the following week church members...who did not have a spot the year before....then the following week everyone else.
Disney could do the same thing....
Customers who have sailed more than 10 times DAY ONE
Customers who have sailed more than 5 times DAY TWO
Customers who have a reservation to transfer that was obtained on the ship DAY THREE
The balance of the population DAY FOUR.
IC has to go. If they are not going to manage the process correctly, then they need to toss it out the door.
Beano, you do have a very reasonable complaint. I hope something good comes out of this. I have decided that I do not know you, but I REALLY like you and the way you are handling this. I am proud to call you my DIS FRIEND!!
