WDW Radio Cruise aboard the Disney Dream in 2011!

**Lou Mongello** · 07-12-2009, 03:39 PM

As I mentioned on Show #127, I am looking to gauge interest in a WDW Radio cruise aboard the new Disney Dream on the Disney Cruise Line in 2011. Join Lou Mongello and listeners of the WDW Radio Show on a voyage on Disney's newest (and largest!) ship!

If you are interested (NO obligation), please post here and let me know:

1. How many people in your party

2. Stateroom type you might be interested in (inside, ocean view or balcony)

3. Vote in the poll on the top of this page on WHEN you might like to go, in order of preference:

1) Inaugural cruise (or first available sailing)
2) Jan/Feb 2011
3) Fall 2011 (likely lowest price)
4) June - Aug 2011 - school break (likely highest cost)

(You may also rank them, in order, from 104 in your post here as that would be helpful as well)

As you probably know, while similar to the Magic and Wonder, the Dream will be much larger, as the ship will have two additional decks and 1250 staterooms.

There is so much to do for families, kids and adults, and ask you know there will always be a few surprises in store as well.

I know this may seem a bit early, but because this cruise and all of the early departures are going to book up VERY very quickly, if we have an idea of what we may need that would be extremely helpful

No details or pricing has been made available as yet, and this may seem like a ways away, but gives you time to plan and save and gives us time to get ready for whenever Disney releases information.

I am VERY excited about the possibility of cruising on the Disney Cruise Line’s newest ship, the Disney Dream, with as many listeners as possible.

Please post here in the forums or Facebook Event Page

if you have any questions.
Hope to see you on board!

wdwfns2 · 07-12-2009, 09:37 PM

Which cruise length is everyone thinking of? We were thinking of taking the 2010 Sept 16th 3 day cruise. The 16th is my son's 10th b-day and the 17th is my..cough cough.. 42nd b-day (

but, I'm still a couple months younger than Lou)... so we thought it might be fun to use our DVC points for the cruise. It would be extra cool to enjoy it with the WDW

Radio crew.

mini-V · 07-12-2009, 10:05 PM

Guess I'd better get a special savings account started ASAP.

3) Inaugural cruise (or first available sailing)
2) Jan/Feb 2011
1) Fall 2010 (likely lowest price)
4) June - Aug - school break (likely highest cost)

WDWtraveler46 · 07-13-2009, 01:05 AM

We haven't been on our first cruise and we are already committing to another!!!

:yaho o:

:yahoo :

We're in. (As long as Jacque' isn't pregnant at the time.)

Anyway, 2 adults, maybe 1 baby.

Since everyone is trying to pinch pennies at this time, I would say let's go at the time where we can get the most bang for our buck.

Hey Lou, should we get the ball rolling on the Texas Hold'em Tourney? And don't forget the FOOOOOOOODDDDDDDDD!!!

envypeterpan · 07-13-2009, 01:27 AM

1) Most likely 3 adults
2) inside
3) Inaugural, Fall 2010, Jan/Feb 2011, school break

**Lou Mongello** · 07-13-2009, 02:08 AM

YEAH!!! I LOVE you guys!!!

SO happy to see such a response and enthusiasm so quickly! I've been excited about this for a while and couldn't wait to share it with you!!!

As for the cruise length, although Disney hasn't released details as yet, I would expect (OK, I'm totally guessing) that it would be a 7-day cruise.

As to where it goes, I have no idea. But I wouldn't care if we pulled away from the dock and did circles for 7 days (Well, maybe a day or two at Castaway Cay) - I just want to get on board!

Of course, more details as they come out

YEAH!!!!!
