Getting Remy/Palo is going to be rough too, although at least there are multiple sea days.
Actually Remy will be impossible for even platinum.

It’s more like a year and a half???
Never done fish extenders in 5 Disney cruises. I think I want to give it a go... with 5 days at sea why not!
We are gold and still got a gtyIt's been fascinating to watch it unfold. I'm really happy that my Fiance is Gold and I could book an actual cabin I wanted. I feel like putting a deposit down makes sense instead of a hold, since it's refundable. It always amazes me how things go so quick with Disney, like booking dining and excursions. I booked on another cruise line and everything was available and it was really easy to do everything.
We have never done FE...Since FEs got ruined (IMO, ymmv) by social media, I now just bring stuff for my family members. It is fun leaving them a little surprise in their pocket each day. Less stress, less money, less to bring with me....win win. Then we usually do some pixie dusting as well just for fun.
Do you think they skipped Kona because it's a tender port, or some other reason?
I wouldn't be surprised if many did actually put down a deposit to buy themselves time to decide. Whether the party will ultimately cancel before PIF is another question.
Got it.....but Holds cannot be modified once selected right?
I've been able to modify the room I'm holding twice already.
We have never done FE...
But we never book this far out and with 5 days at sea... would be fun.
I would suggest maybe just sticking to the sea days I don’t know.
That one did seem to sell out quicker. I did like that it was longer, but for a work schedule the 9 night will be easier for us to take off workWe are gold and still got a gty
Oceanview was gone by 9 am Gold opening day... that’s all my TA could get for now. That’s for May 8th.
The April sailing we still could have had our pick.
I've only done the FE thing twice, and then only because I could join a very small "latecomers" group. I did do one on the 10 nt. HNL/YVR sailing in 2015. It was fun! Not sure how much they were loved, but I did really pretty flower hair accessories like the ladies wear so often in Hawaii. Behind the right ear? You're single (your heart is not spoken for) Behind the left ear means your heart is taken.
I would have LOVED that flower
Nothing has been started yet, for either cruise. You could start them. Just head over to the Cruise Meets board and set them up.We're gonna have a lot of fun on these 2 cruises. Anybody starting the DIS meets?
We did this cruise in 2015 and it was so empty one dining room was closed.

I hope you all have a great time. My advice is rent a car in each port for 40 dollars and skip the expensive Disney excursions. It’s really east to drive around the islands and see all the things you want to see.
The cool weather is a concern of mine. We ended up with the 5/8 sailing since that is after dd’s finals (college). I sort of feel like I prefer heading towards cool weather at the end of the trip, though I’d prefer it not at all.

Yes, we live south of Kona and find that ships choose Hilo with its large safe dock, over tendering families into Kona pier!I would have preferred a stop in Kona over Hilo. Kona has great snorkeling. Do you think they skipped Kona because it's a tender port, or some other reason?
