Re: Cruise Newbie

Disney cruises are fantastic...and expensive as are ALL cruises. But don't let the price scare you off.

You have to remember that the cruise includes lodging, transportation (other than to and from the departure port), entertainment, meals, and lodging. The only extras are excursions (off the ship) and the "good" drinks. Other cruise lines charge for soda - even with meals.

Other than that, you'll want to tip your servers and cabin stewards. And there are surcharges for gas now on EVERY cruise line.

It's a great vacation. I would recommend the park first then cruise. Just have fun then unwind.

Oh, and welcome to Mousebuzz!
