  1. Maleficent is scheduled for release on May 30, so I expect it will be showing on our June 7 sailing on the Magic. When we sailed on the Magic in December, we saw Frozen in 3D on the first evening at sea - an amazing experience. We also went to the premiere of Saving Mr. Banks (not so amazing for tired kids, who thought it would be more kid-oriented). My 11 year old DD wants to see Maleficent, but it may be too intense for her and my 7 year old DS. Heck, it might be too intense for their mom. :eek: We'll sit on aisle seats in case we need to make quick exits.

     

    If Frozen and/or Frozen Sing Along is still playing, I won't see my DD very much on the cruise.

  2. We just returned from a wonderful cruise (our first, ever!) on the Magic, and really enjoyed the concierge 1 br suite we had. I felt like we had our expectations raised by the Disney on-land concierge, though. When I asked about whether we should get water delivered to our room, I was told that water would be provided, and we would have access to the concierge lounge on board to get free drinks, snacks, and bottled water. When we boarded and asked our concierge about the lounge, we were told that on the Magic and Wonder, there is NO concierge lounge and no free bottled water. They gave us a free six pack of bottled water, and put in some canned sodas in the fridge, as compensation for the misinformation we had received. It was never replenished. We were told if we wanted additional bottled water, we would have to pay for it. So the benefits we got for paying more were the extra space, priority boarding, early reservations for a cabana on CC, free snacks delivered without ordering (but they would have been free if we were in a regular room and ordered them through room service), and a litho at the end of the trip. There were a couple of concierge parties (which we did not attend, since they were in conflict with other planned activities), and I am sure there were other things we could have done had we followed up with them. I was very disappointed that Disney couldn't give us coupons for free drinks or bottled water - even if there is no room for an actual room, they could have found a way to give us some of the benefits. We will be on the Magic again in June, but won't be going concierge this time. We will miss the extra space, but it's just not worth the money. On the Fantasy or the Dream? You bet!
