FOUR MORE DAYS TILL THE CRUISE.... TALK ABOUT ANXIETY....

:cool: :eek: :rolleyes: :) :D

Anyhow, I have just 2 more questions (I think):

1) Do they allow guests to reserve seats at the shows?
- I ask because if we arrive 15-20 min early, my kids may get antsy.

2) When exactly do we put on the luggage tags?

Thanx again.

No, you cannot hold seats.

2) When exactly do we put on the luggage tags?

It varies, depending on how you're getting to the port and how your luggage is being handled.

You didn't say which cruise you are on, so it's sort of hard to answer, but...

If you are staying at a Disney resort and using Disney transportation to get to the port, then you put your luggage tags on before you leave your resort room because, once you check in for the bus, you will not see your luggage again until it's in your stateroom.

If you're driving yourself to the port, then you can put your luggage tags on just before your hand your luggage over the the baggage handlers at the port.

If you're on a Mediterannean cruise and are arriving on the same day as embarkation and you are using Disney transportation to the port, you can put the tags on your luggage as soon as you've reclaimed it from Customs.

If you're on a Med cruise, but arriving a day or two before your cruise, but staying at a Disney arranged hotel and using Disney transfers, you put your luggage tags on just before Disney picks your luggage up at your hotel.

If you're on a Med cruise, arriving a day or two early but NOT using Disney transfers, then you put the tags on your luggage just before you turn them over to the baggage handlers at the port.
