I leave soon and I'm hoping for a smooth sailing Went to disney and went to Atlantis. Seas were calm and the seas on the way back were mostly like glass except the last night. Lots of dolphins and flying fish!! Sent from my iPhone using Forums Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gershep Posted July 1, 2014 #14 Share Posted July 1, 2014 We plan on taking our own luggage off when we disembark. Do you know which exit off the ship is best. I know on the Breakaway there was an exit that beat the crowds. Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sent from my iPhone using Forums There is milk in cartons at breakfast. Not sure after. You could probably either ask or get a few and put in fridge Sent from my iPhone using Forums Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You could probably either ask or get a few and put in fridge Sent from my iPhone using Forums Weird actually, there were two exits but there was little flexibility on which side. Walk off started at 8:15am so you could get to deck 7 earlier than that for a good start. I was surprised how many people walked off and blue tags started at 9:05 to walk off without luggage.

SailAwayInAugust Posted July 1, 2014 #22 Share Posted July 1, 2014 I hope you had a great trip!! Was it hard getting reservations in the Specialty Restaurants? How was the weather?

musicteachermama Posted July 3, 2014 #23 Share Posted July 3, 2014 Was the Disney excursion worth it for you? So tempted to go for it but it seems like a lot of money for so little time. Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What entertainment do you suggest? And MOST important, Do you have any dailies to care to share? Thanks :) It was not too hard getting reservations. We did it the first when we got on. It got busier as the week end on. Out ship was full at 2997 so Le bistro was overflow for MDR until 8 the first 2 days. The specialty restaurants were full on the board but not when you got there. I think they pulled staff for the MDR. I would book the first day. Entertainment was good overall. The 70s show was good and the magician did a lot of slight of hand tricks rather than big stuff which was cool. Weather was awesome. Captain said GSC we had the best weather all year. Water was 70 and felt great. No dailies but I saw someone posted them from out cruise so just check the posts Hope this answers everything Sent from my iPhone using Forums Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BrPanthers99 Posted July 3, 2014 Author #25 Share Posted July 3, 2014 Was the Disney excursion worth it for you? So tempted to go for it but it seems like a lot of money for so little time. Thanks! I actually did Disney. We were off the ship and on the bus at 12:15 and it takes an hour. So 1:15 we got there or so. Two buses went and the first came back at 6:30 and 2nd 7(time they left transfer station which is where they drop you off). It's $174 so it is costly. We know Epcot well so we has fun, test track was 90 min so I didn't so that. You can set up the fast pass app and you get 3 with your ticket but they give you the times and what rides. Test track was gone by 12:30. It's a fun time and it's cheaper than flying and staying but it costs a lot for the time you are there.
