Talking 06/12/2010 Magic - Northern European Capitals

I am over the moon excited!!! DH and I are booked for the June 12, 2010 northern European cruise from Dover to St. Petersburg and back to Dover! Thanks to our wonderful TA Lynn! She got us a Cat 5. Now all I have to do is either win the lottery or get a second (third, fourth, and fifth) job!

I know it's so pricey and in this day and age perhaps we shouldn't have committed to such a trip. But, it may well be the last trip of this type for us. Not saying there won't be a few WDW trips left in us, but nothing of this magnitude!

So, if anyone else is going lets set up some meets!

We just booked this morning too. My travel agent got us a guaranteed category 4 room, no set cabin assignment on the June 12 2009 cruise. I would love to meet up with any other Passporters on that cruise. We are also planning a day or 2 in London before departure.

How awesome you guys!

At the moment, with other potential plans for 2010, there is no way we can afford to commit to the 12 night Northern European cruises, much as we'd love to. However, we may yet be doing something on the Med itinerary - we'll have to see.

What I was going to say was how do you guys fancy some sort of meet before you board the Magic? We only live 40 or so minutes from Dover and would definitely love to meet anyone who's going to be on that cruise. We could do a PassPorter meet just before the cruise, depending on what your plans end up being. Keep that in mind - and hopefully nearer the time we can sort something out.

That would be awesome! DCL is apparently going to offer a hotel/port transfer for those that come in a day early, but don't have much info on that as yet. We are also talking of taking a day or two after to sightsee. I grew up hearing of the "white cliffs of Dover." We have a few days to sort something out!

A pre-cruise meet sounds great. We are going to try and fly in early and spend a few days in London beforehand. We are booking our air fare separate from the cruise. I have a great travel agent who will try and use our airline milage accounts for the flights. She was able to do that for the Med Cruise and all three of us flew from Chicago to Barcelona for about $150.00 in taxes and fees!

So sorry you and Mark won't be able to be on this cruise Cheryl, but hey, since I'm going to miss the Chicago meet in a couple of weeks with you guys I think a meet "across the pond" is in order! Count DH and I in. Tried to talk him into arriving early enough to go to Disneyland Paris, but that was a big NO! So, time in jolly old England and a meet with some great PPers will make up for my disappointment.

Sulley said the same thing...so my next move is a Disney Adventure.....London/Paris with a few extra days in Paris thrown in.....I keep saying that, but DCL makes it impossible to work in! (I'm not complaining, mind you! Russia...are you KIDDING ME?)

Its too early for airfare, but this is what we did 6 years ago when I booked the British Isles cruise on Princess leaving from Southampton. I told DH I booked and he said, good now we can go to DLP. What? DLP is in France not England.
I booked Continental from EWR to CDG airport, took the Disney bus to DLP and stayed at Hotel New York for 2 nights. Took the Eurostar back to London. Stayed at the Marriott on points right next to the Big wheel, and the train station. The morning of the cruise, we took the train to Southampton. After the cruise, we took the train back to London, stayed 2 more nights at a hotel near Gatwick. Took the train into the city, saw "Mary Poppins"......Had a blast. It was our "25th" wedding anniversary. So I splurged. In 2010 we will be married 33 years, but $$$ is tight, don't know about splurging this time.
Honey, DLP is not in England, it is in France....
