And while the children's programming as a whole is still fun and all (at least on Royal,) it is very much not Disney... Details and customer service, even (and often especially) for the little ones, is what Disney does best.

I could not disagree more. While I certainly respect everyone's opinions and experience, I felt a billion times more comfortable with my kids in the RCL kids club on the Allure than on the Disney Fantasy. The counselors were more knowledgeable about the kids and never appeared hassled, as the Disney people did. On more than one occasion, Disney called us to pick up our crying child when he or she wasn't even in the program at the time. That was a big concern for us. Don't get me wrong, the Disney kid's club was huge and had tons of stuff to do, but I felt way more comfortable with my kids in RCL and I think they enjoyed it more as well.

Thanks for all of your help. I finally booked 9160 last night and gave a deposit. Can't wait until we set sail!

Unbelievably, I was able to put this cabin on hold for the June 24 sailing of the Summit in Alaska. I was a little worried when people said that of the AFT CC cabins, the 9th deck would be their last choice.

Can anyone put my fears to rest? We are not the type to be rattled from a few chairs moving around, and we are usually up at 6:30 anyway, and at the Casino at night when the chairs would be moved then.

Would it be ridiculous to forego this cabin fora cabin with a tiny balcony just because of the possibility of noise disturbances? I am leaning towards no, but I just wanted to get everyone's opinion!!

Also, I read that some people have CC menus and othe Summit material that they are sharing? If you can, please send to mklein@greenbaumlaw.com

Any help would be GREATLY APPRECIATED.

P.S. - Just got back from the Grand Princess in the Mediteranean for our honeymoon, and it doesn't compare to the food, service and overall quality of Celebrity ships (and I've only been on the ZENITH!). Can;t wait to see Alaska in style.
