DCL documents? when will they be here ?
I presume we should expect some cruise documents, luggage tags? by post ? But as we leaving the uk in under 3 weeks I'm beginning to panic that they wont arrive before we leave! if you get what I mean...
Ive filled in the on-line check in forms etc, but what or when should I expect something via post ? Thanks for any help.. |

I think I've read before that people got them about 1 week before cruising.
I'm probably going to ask if I can pick mine up at the cruise terminal as we cruise a week after getting to Orlando. (If anyone has done this, could you let me know how easy it was please). Fingers crossed for your docs!

Normally, 3 weeks before cruise sail date, but can be nearer two if they are running behind a little.
They normally come via the little brown UPS vans, and require signing for... so watch out for the little brown van

Are you staying at a disney resort prior to the cruise? If so you can arrange for them to be sent there. We stayed at POR for 2 weeks before our cruise and they arrived at POR a week or so before our sailing date.

This is what we are thinking of doing. We arrive in Orlando on 27th July but don't go on the cruise until Aug 20th.
We will be staying at the DVC resorts so it may be best for them to send the docs there.

We are going to Orlando for 8 nights before we cruise.
Does anyone who has cruised before think we will get our documents in time. We are not staying on site until after our cruise.

We were also worried about our documents arriving in time, so we organised for them to be delivered to our hotel (ASMo). It was so lovely to get a phone message left that we had a parcel waiting at reception.

We had them well (at least 10 days, maybe longer) before we left both times, and both times we had 10 days in Orlando first...do not stress too much, its not essential you do receive them - all forms can be completed on line.
The only really useful things they contain are the luggage labels for your cases so these can be taken off you before you enter the terminal. I'm sure you will be fine
