Madeira relased it's Port Schedule and the Magic is on it May 28th and October 16th, 2013.

Madeira, Portugal is a traditional stop on the transatlantic repositioning cruises.

Port schedules can change, but this is a good sign! :sohappy:

And hopefully the dates are releases and bookings available at the same time!!!

No! I want some notice this time! :lol:

Plus, since these will probably be new itineraries (I.e. Greece and the Wonder possibly sailing out of Miami) platinum and gold cc members should get a couple of days bookng advantage.

It's listed in Gibraltar and Villefranche now too. Dates are a little odd, could just be placeholders while Disney firms everything up.

I'm thinking Greece will take at least one stop, love to see them keep VillaFrance though, as it is a gorgeous port :sohappy:

Sorry Tammy, can you explain to me (agàin) how rebooking onboard works??

Yep!

First let me explain what I said above.

Almost without exception, the cheapest time to book a Disney cruise is the day, the hour, sometimes the minute the cruise is released. On new itineraries, I have seen rates jump $500 or more on that first day.

I always recommend booking the second you can.

Then if you are sailing Disney before that cruise, you can reshop it onboard. All you need to do is tell the agent onboard you have an existing reservation and you want to compare prices. The agent will compare the price you have to the onboard booking discount and let you know which is better.

If the onboard discount is better, he will take your information and rebook it for you.

They can usually transfer your old deposit over to the new reservation, although I have had them tell a client before that they couldn't and they had to charge the new deposit and refund the old. That's not correct by the way, so if they tell you that ask them to recheck.

If you booked through a travel agent, they will contact the travel agent to make sure they are okay with the rebooking.

That's it!:)

Oh nice 1 thanks Tammy!

Something tells me that even with an onboard discount and credit booking on day 1 will def be the way to go!

We sailed on the first med cruise last summer would this be the cheapest option this year what with late May/ early June not being an option for a lot of folks???
