Sure!

For next May and just two of you, I'd say yes, your odds are very very good. I don't think I've ever actually had a waitlist not come through, although we're seriously testing this theory with a last minute booking for 17 people this Thanksgiving. If that one comes through I'll decide every single one of them does. :) Either way, you're almost certainly good this far out with only two people.

It was just the rep you were talking to. Go to the place noted in the Navigator for dining changes as soon as you board and see if you are alone. If you aren't, they'll try again to fix it. :)

Okay great! I figured based off the last time I'd cruised that the two to a table thing wasn't a big deal, the few times I spoke to reps on and off board about it they told me it wasn't guaranteed but quite likely. I guess the rep I spoke to was just a bit more adamant about the no guarantees policy.

Wow! 17 people for a Thanksgiving cruise sounds like such a great time! My family did a big group vacation with 11 people to WDW (using our home resort OKW) for Christmas to New Years in a Grand Villa when I was 13... To date, one of the best trips I've ever had. Being with the whole family, during the holidays ON VACATION is pretty much my idea of paradise.

I hope your party has a fabulous trip. :) I'm sure I'll read all about it when you're back! ;)

Yes, some of the reps get overly excited about making sure you know it's just a request, lol.

We are so excited! We loved being onboard at Thanksgiving last time. It is a GREAT way to spend a holiday with family. :) Thank you!

Tomorrow is the 75 day mark when I can do online check-in. I was watching a tutorial on the process and they mentioned that if you don't have passports you have the option of marking that you will be using birth certificates. Is there specific information they will want from the birth certificates like they want from the passports, or do you just say that your are using birth certificates and that's all they require?

Birth cert will work fine. I've used it. But it has to be a certified original version of it.

Can anyone tell me exactly what time the online check-in window opens up? My check-in window opens tomorrow on the 14th, but wondering exactly when? I've read 3:00 a.m. which seems an odd time.

When we dined at Remy the last time they started playing Le Festin from the movie and I thought that was nice. Then the violinist entered and accompanied the soundtrack. How often does that occur? One of my favorite moments from the whole trip.

I am going on a cruise on the Dream in February 2015. I read a few places that the Princess Gathering is a ticket-only event. Does anyone know when it typically is on the Dream? I read that the personal navigator doesn't list it.

When you dock in Nassau and on the day you are at Sea they have the Princesses in the Atrium for a meet and greet/photo op for the 4 night cruise. You get in line with the rest of the parents/children and they move you from one Princess to the other. As far as I know this is not ticketed event and it is listed in the Navigator as tot he day and time.

I'm pretty sure that the Frozen Meet and Greet is actually ticketed (fastpass style) on ALL ships.
