Took a chance to see if any staterooms were still available yesterday and was able to book it! Second DVC Member Cruise ever. Who else is going?!?

Thanks for setting this up, first DVC member cruise for us, so handy it’s on our side of the world!

Be prepared to bring an empty suitcase! So much DVC daily gifts for each person in the stateroom! We filled the empty one with all the stuff.

Thanks for starting this thread! I’ll repeat this post here, for those who don’t find it in the pre-booking thread -

Adventures by Disney has a Barcelona Escape, four days & three nights May 15-18, ending with transport to the ship for embarkation for this cruise -

UPDATE: The magic is real!!!! I just got a call from DVC saying they've moved me to the connecting cabins!!! Thanks for everybody who expressed concern, and if someone in this group made this happen behind the scenes, I can't thank you enough!!
===============================================
I am so disappointed. I had thought that I got my first choice connecting cabins on the Mediterranean cruise, but realized on my callback just now that the agent made a mistake and gave us cabins on opposite sides of the ship. Despite my best explanation that the other family would be minimally impacted by swapping rooms so that ours could connect, DVC absolutely refuses.

So, by any chance, does someone here have confirmed room 6512 on the 2024 member cruise? I can trade you the exact same cabin on the other side, and throw in a very valuable (>$2,000) Disney gift.

Thanks. Unfortunately (!) we are on the ship from Fla to Barcelona.

Nothing unfortunate about that imo!

We are on this cruise as well, will be our first member cruise. We've cruised the Caribbean many times before so I was so excited when I heard the member cruise was going to be in the Mediterranean as we were looking to do that next year anyway for a change of pace. It's still a year away but I'm already looking into getting CC points lined up to pay for flights!

We missed the DVC Member Cruise that sailed out of NYC in 2016 & 2019. But we were able to go on a non-DVC Member cruise from NYC to Canada in 2018. Such a cool port to sail out of and definitely spend a few days before or after. We caught a playoff game between the Yankees and Astros.

Welcome. We lived on Long Island until ‘81. Used to go to NYC for the Rangers and Jets.
