HI! My name is Tanya. Our family has 2 RCI cruises booked (just the 4 of us on Oasis in Jan 2017 and an Extended Family cruise to Alaska on Explorer August 2017 - so far 15 of us)- we were able to book 2 RCI under what we would have had to pay for 1 East Carb on Disney. I have been the person booking everything for both cruises. So, I am grabbing all the tips and information I can on both ships, ports, and RCI in general. We have been on Carnival Spirit to Alaska 2012, Disney Dream 2012, and Jan 2016 Star Wars Cruise on Disney Fantasy. What I have learned so far from this awesome podcast is we aren't alone giving RCI a try over Disney. Our kids love Disney because of the friendships they have been able to make before, during and after the cruise. I'm hoping they will have the same experience on the Oasis. So far it is a lot harder to find other cruisers ( I think our Star Wars Cruise last year spoiled us - the kids had pen pals before the cruise and we had meet ups on day 1 and did the fish extenders so had a lot of interactions throughout the experience. ) Overall - THANK YOU Matt for your awesome podcast (by the way I first found you off the joint podcast you did with DCLBlog on Eastern Carib Ports) I have been listening nonstop since and really wish we would have "accidentally" booked on your group cruise instead of the oasis we are on. The group cruise sounds so fun! Maybe winter 2018....
