I just accepted a new job and will have 2 weeks of "funemployment" before starting. It's also been cold here so I of course looked at Disney cruises...oops. There is a GTY rate for the Magic cruise out of Miami 1/16-20 that goes to Key West and CC, which looks amazing. It would be me and my husband, so just adults. Booking on such short notice, I have a few questions that I'm hoping the cruise experts on here can help me out with:
1) We're not planning to book any excursions or Palo, but is there anything else I would miss out on by booking so late?
2) To get the best rate, we would stay in an interior room. I've always had a porthole before. Are there any concerns about having an interior that I'm not thinking of? It's only 4 nights so I don't think it would be a problem for me.
3) Any ideas for how to spend the day post-cruise in Miami? The only non-stop flights are at 7 pm, so we will be there all day. I was thinking about renting a car and going to the beach or the everglades, but I would love any other suggestions.
4) I've never been on one of the smaller ships. I've loved the Rainforest Room on the Fantasy. Is it worth it on the Magic? It looks like the room is indoors on the deck plans.
5) Am I crazy for booking a cruise 13 days out?? Flights are shockingly well priced and I'm able to get at least one way on points.
Thanks in advance for any advice and for putting up with my long post! I'm an over planner so a spontaneous vacation freaks me out a little bit
