I booked the cruise as soon as the dates became available in order to get the best price. I arranged it through Dreams Unlimited. I found them really helpful and with the early booking I got a $200 onboard credit. I booked a flydrive with Virgin and then a villa direct with the owner. It obviously wasn't a cheap holiday and it was the first time I have spent so much on a trip but it was money well spent and would do it again in a flash - in fact my thoughts are already turning to 2011 and going again! If you are thinking about doing something similar do not book the cruise with a UK t/a or with Virgin Hols etc. From what I found and read on here previously you will get a much better price going through the likes of DU. The only issue I would now see would be the big drop in the exchange rate. |

welcome back, sounds like you've had a great time. I know what you mean about finding the money to go back again but if you're that determined you will find it somehow.
p.s. it's ok for men to shed a tear ye know |

Welcome back..so pleased you had a great time, you were luckier than us with the weather by sounds of it(We were on the Magic 25th Oct - 1st Nov)
Great advice above, the US agents are so much cheaper than UK ones when it comes to Disney cruises..We booked through Vacationstogo & they too were so helpful! Unfortunately my DH found 7 nights cruising too much for him...but me & the kids are still suffering from withdrawal symptoms, we LOVED it! Sally x

Disney Cruise Line VIP!

OMG
Roy Disney is my Uncle Dave! You won't believe the similarities .. he could so pass himself off as him. I'm gonna phone my mum and dad and try to get a photo of him sent to me on email. I can't believe how much he looks like him ... I'm in shock!
