That’s why I think it was a bad idea to do more extensive renovation than actually required to fix the issue. But maybe it really was an urgent issue that had to be fixed. In any case it really stinks that work going on for weeks/months and limiting access to kids areas is happening during guest...

Yea, that was report from the most recent sailing. At least they said the club area was open some and not totally closed like it was for an earlier sailing. I just don’t know if I should expect something like the lab being entirely closed when they shift over to work on that restroom or...

@CMontheseas any chance you could provide an update on the kids club/lab work? From what I can piece together there was one Magic sailing where the club was basically closed the whole cruise, and then the most recent sailing the club was open periodically but no open house other than the first...

Thanks everyone. I will just plan to take it on the ship and keep it under the table during lunch!

I’m going on the Magic next week, and since it is just my son and I we only have a small carry on suitcase each. I am bringing a bottle of wine and would prefer to just keep my carry on suitcase with me rather than bring a separate bag for the wine, since the wine has to be carried on. I think I...

I just use the laundry facility on the boat - they’ve got irons. I usually just take everything that needs ironed at one time and knock it out. But 6 people is a lot of clothes!

That’s your opinion. Others may disagree or feel they are paying for something not being provided.

Regardless of the usage of the clubs on Aus/Nz cruises, the difference here is that half or a portion of the Magic kids area is entirely closed and passengers on upcoming sailings received an email that this was due to restroom work. Not one half open for parents to enjoy with their kids as part...

That may have been due to fewer children on the cruise or fewer counselors. I’ve been on several Disney cruises and both sides of the kids area are typically open except for a couple of hours of open house during the daytime hours. But for this restroom work they are completely closing off one...

I would be livid. We sail on the Magic on 2/16 and I wonder if the work will be done or at least more complete by then so that we aren’t losing out on half of the kids space. It is completely unacceptable that they didn’t mention the nursery impact - even if it was something that was learned...

Did DCL send any notice of the partial closure of the nursery?? The email I received certainly didn’t indicate that half of the entire kids area would be closed.

Hi is there any update? Some are reporting that on the most recent sailing half of the entire club was closed (the Toy Story side) for the whole sailing.

Got it, thanks. Hopefully most work can be completed during turnaround.

I would imagine it will get worse as kids won’t come tell counselors in time given that the restrooms may be farther away or require an escort. Do you know how long the repairs will take or if other areas of the club or lab are blocked off or inaccessible?

How long is the work expected to take? Are areas other than the restrooms blocked off? If kids are flushing ducks, they could conceivably flush them anywhere and not just in the kids club so it seems like a larger problem. (Why flush ducks??? Ugh).

If you expect little kids to be able to successfully tell people “early” that they will need to use the restroom - that is a plan for disaster.

They said both restrooms will be “enhanced”. This makes me think it is planned work rather than emergency fix of just one restroom.

I’m not worried about the restroom issue so much as the statement that areas of the club or lab will be blocked off - leading me to think construction may be happening and space will be limited.

Did others receive an email from DCL this morning about work on the bathrooms within Oceaneer Club and Lab impacting upcoming Magic sailings? It sounds like only one of the sides of kids club will have a restroom available and there will be construction work or other limited parts of the...

In my experience you get onboard credit based on the price of the cruise. The more it costs, the more credit you get. Sounds like the travel agent that is being used here either doesn’t have a program with DCL or is withholding info. For reference, I booked Treasure sailing on the date bookings...
