maggy387 Posted February 9, 2014 #2 Share Posted February 9, 2014 We just booked the repositioning cruise on the Dream. We finally get to see Aruba. PLUS it's a 9 day cruise. So very excited! :) Where do you live i.e. I am wondering about to from the ports since you start in one port and end in another. We usually drive our car which would be out. Also, does the passport card work or is a passport required since it is not closed loop. Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We usually drive our car which would be out. Also, does the passport card work or is a passport required since it is not closed loop. Thanks. I live in Wisconsin. The airfare is actually a lot cheaper than ANY roundtrip flight to Florida I've priced. Also, per the Carnival website, a passport isn't required for this open looped cruise. I am in no way promoting NOT getting a passport. But yes, a passport card would work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
carrieluvsgreg Posted February 9, 2014 #6 Share Posted February 9, 2014 We just booked the repositioning cruise on the Dream. We finally get to see Aruba. PLUS it's a 9 day cruise. So very excited! :) There is a roll call for this cruise. Check it out. We too are booked on this trip! We are so excited. For us it is our first repositioning. We are fortunate to live in Florida and are renting a car one way to Pt. Canaveral and then booked a one-way flight from NOLA.

Lyncoya Posted February 9, 2014 Author #9 Share Posted February 9, 2014 Dumb question but what is the difference between repo and regular cruise A repositioning cruise begins in one port and ends in another. For example, this cruise begins in Orlando and ends in New Orleans. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PittsburghGirlee Posted February 10, 2014 #10 Share Posted February 10, 2014 The price looks great for this cruise....loved the Dream.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
carrieluvsgreg Posted February 10, 2014 #11 Share Posted February 10, 2014 The price looks great for this cruise....loved the Dream.... Yes, that was one reason we booked it. They do keep the price low to help the additional costs incurred with having two separate ports. Sent from my iPad using Forums mobile app Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They're offering balcony cabins with no single supplement too..... not sure how long this will last, but it's a nice deal for solos. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The4Cruisers Posted February 10, 2014 #17 Share Posted February 10, 2014 Dumb question but what is the difference between repo and regular cruise A repositioning cruise is one where the cruise line is changing where the ship will be making port for a time period. In this case, the Dream has been doing itineraries out of Port Canaveral. Now it will be moved to do itinieraries from New Orleans instead. The cruiseline will allow people to cruise as they move the ship to the new port. Alot of folks look forward to these repo cruises as they run a unique itinerary and usually have some good seas days too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
