MCManders99 Posted October 29, 2014 #10 Share Posted October 29, 2014 A little disappointed, since we are finally able to book for 2016 but now St Maarten is no longer a port. Now hopefully they bring it back for the fall cruises on Fantasy. DH wants to go back to St Maarten, and now may have to look into other lines. Don't really want to though. We weren't fond of our Royal Cruise and Princess doesn't seem to be the fid friendly cruise and we loved our Princess cruises before kids. I am gonna have to research Tortola and try to convince DH but that is gonna be hard. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Great port but I guess he want to go to Maho beach?!? ex techie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MCManders99 Posted October 29, 2014 #12 Share Posted October 29, 2014 What was the draw for your husband to St Maarten?Great port but I guess he want to go to Maho beach?!? ex techie Yes Maho Beach is the draw, he's a pilot and has flown into there. He is not a beach guy and usually only wants to do the beach for the private island. But Maho Beach is the exception and he said if we do a cruise it has to be Eastern so he can go back to St Maarten. I glanced at Tortola and it doesn't seem to have much to do for a family with young kids. Maybe I'll convince him to do a Western instead. Well just have to wait till next year and see when its time to book. I was just finally excited to be able to book again. We had to keep putting it off due to DS. He's special needs and not potty trained yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ex techie Posted February 8, 2015 #24 Share Posted February 8, 2015 Has anyone heard anymore about Disney Fantasy's information for the rumored Feb 16th release? It seems to have gone very quite, especially this close to the date, I would have thought it would be a frenzy of discussion? ex techie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
moki'smommy Posted February 8, 2015 #25 Share Posted February 8, 2015 Well,many of us saw DisneyFantasy's picture and large post which has since been deleted. My travel agent says it will be March. And it seems that DCL will be releasing some new policies regarding penalty dates, etc. for US based cruises just prior to releasing the remainder of the 2016 dates.
