I wish DCL

[ivanp91]

Stop printing out all pictures

They don't anymore. The Magic, Wonder and Fantasy are all digital-only kiosks, it's been a while since I've been on the Dream but surely it would be the same now. No more folios with every photo inside.

The hosts will no longer do this. You have to go to guest services yourself to get them. They are usually printed and available by about 10:00 pm.

Not true. I left the Fantasy 6 days ago and our host had no problem leaving us a paper Navigator each night. I have read that some hosts won't do it, but obviously some still are if asked.

Sail out of Baltimore, New Jersey, Charleston or any other port between Manhattan and Port Canaveral.

This! ^^^

Bring back the complimentary chips, sour cream and salsa (the best salsa ever!)
Sail out of NY (or anywhere in the north east) when school is not in session.

Less open house time for the oceaneers lab and club.... it was almost always completely empty, if not empty there were two children max... every time.... yet again.

I think they did toddler time in Andy's room and just used the Andy's room portion once or twice... that is a better alternative vs. closing off the entire lab or club to almost all children.

....would have an option besides the MDR for times when you didnt want to eat a big dinner or dress up to go to Palo/Remy. Something like a modified buffet.

What about Cabanas? It's not an option on first night/last night, but offers a more casual option on the other nights.

Ours did on the Fantasy a few weeks ago. I stopped by the Guest Services desk on the first day and asked that a paper Navigator be left in our room.

 

[Sherrilatte]

Increase the days that Palo Brunches are offered--especially on 7 night cruises.

It's still a sit-down table service, though. No buffet.

 

[dclpluto]

Bring back good steaks. Been a while since I had a good steak on DCL.

Yes!!! I ordered one on our last cruise and it was soooooo thin, not good at all! I was so sad, I LOVE steak.

 

[RysMomma]

Had bigger pools!

 

[fhtpdw20]

Offer single room rate for solo cruisers.

 

[leannak]

Have more (and more affordable) rooms for larger families. We have to get 2 rooms and can't always get connecting. I feel like I'm having a separate vacation from my husband and some of my kiddos.

 

[bbn1122]

I wish the prices weren’t so high!

More double dips at CC cruises.
Rainforest pass wasn’t so high.

Didn’t have the tasting at 2pm and 10:30pm, too early and late for me.

And those Mickey pretzels sound yummy! I will vote to bring them back too!!

 

[T & R]

A ban on strollers and scooters. Especially those giant 2 seater strollers that take up the whole isle.

 

[Jsoenning]

They could find a way to slow down time when on board. Always goes so fast...oh and sold some of the unique DCL / Castaway Cay items on-line as well.

 

[tvguy]

Had bigger pools!

The law of physics kind of limits how big the pools at be. As the pools get bigger, the area around the pool that catches the water in rough seas needs to get bigger. A huge slosh of water in rough seas could hurt a lot of people

 

[jalapeno_pretzel]

Have more varied Caribbean itineraries.

 

[Mitura]

More choices in the retail stores and different stores. They have several high end shops that when I look in there are no guests in there. But the 2 main shops that have the usual fare (t-shirts and keychains) are jammed with guests. Remove some of the high end stores and place regular themed ones in their place.

Disney + in the cabin. I love the TV offerings but would love seeing Disney + offered so that I can try it out before I buy it.

More variety for food on Castaway Cay. There seems to be chicken, hamburgers, hot dogs and not much else. They have the ability to showcase BBQ on the island it seems to be very lacking.

Behind the scenes of the ships. I love the Art of the Ship tour, but would love even more a behind the scenes of the galley, wheelhouse, stage area and engine spaces. (I know for security you can't , but it would be great to take that tour).

In Animator's Palette I'd love to see a different Crush show than the one that is in regular circulation. Mix it up a bit.

As stated elsewhere different Castaway Club gifts for different # of cruises. Cruise 1-2 get a bag, cruise 3-4 get a towel, cruise 5-6 get a thermos, etc. I have the same bag and probably will get the same one again next cruise.

A timer on deck chairs. When somebody goes and puts a towel on the chair the timer starts and they get 15 -30 minutes to sit in it. If they are sitting in the chair then the the timer doesn't time and resets when they get up. So like a parking meter. If the meter is Red then the towel comes off and I can sit on the chair. If its green then you're just getting a bite to eat or using the rest room, its occupied. To reset it you have to sit in the chair.

I know I'll think of more, but this is a good first pass.

I wish DCL would:
Lower Prices
Bring back lining up in the terminal (It was much more orderly), instead of the numbers.
Park a ship at CC as a hotel.

Yes! Six cruises under our belt and we have received the exact same sling bag every time with the exception of our "sixth" gold cruise where we received the addition of luggage tags. I am so over the sling bags - but my guests like them as I keep sending them home with a snack bag compliments of me and Disney...
