Vlove09 Posted January 17, 2014 #1051 Share Posted January 17, 2014 Sailing the Dream 3/15/14. I'm interested in knowing the earliest you have been able to leave the ship. Plan to do self assist and have a car service waiting. I have an early flight and trying to have all my ducks in a row. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
carrieluvsgreg Posted January 17, 2014 #1052 Share Posted January 17, 2014 We've sailed on the dream twice, but never been in a hurry to leave... Self assist does get to go first, I forget what time you dock, but if I remember correctly, it seems if all goes well with customs, self assist is leaving the boat within a half an hour of docking.

Welcome Vlove09 there is a group of about 25 cruise critic members on the same 3-15 cruise. We are all on the roll call area of the board if you would be interested in joining us.

pbsteve Posted January 18, 2014 #1054 Share Posted January 18, 2014 Just be careful of too early. The time the boat docks is only an estimate, as it can change due to weather, fog especially. I always plan mid to late afternoon flights home. It's like getting an extra day of vacation in florida Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-N900A using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
k2excursion Posted January 18, 2014 #1055 Share Posted January 18, 2014 Sailing the Dream 3/15/14. I'm interested in knowing the earliest you have been able to leave the ship. Plan to do self assist and have a car service waiting. I have an early flight and trying to have all my ducks in a row. I echo previous advice about not having too early of a flight, just in case. But IF all goes well, you could be off the ship before 8:00am. My first time on the Dream, we did self assist, and were shuttled back to our car at the Radisson, and on the road by 8:00.

firespud Posted January 18, 2014 #1056 Share Posted January 18, 2014 We sail on the Dream in April. Can you tell me about the entertainment during your cruise, especially the live bands, if any? Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wrigley80 Posted January 19, 2014 #1057 Share Posted January 19, 2014 Is there a Sports Bar on the Dream??? And if so where is it??? Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KYWEST1 Posted January 22, 2014 #1058 Share Posted January 22, 2014 Wow.....finally finished all 53 pages!!! I've learned so much. Thanks to all who posted such great info! I found out that our balconies (on deck 6) over looked the lanai and a hot tub. I had NO idea....I was expecting ocean! Rebooked to Vista balcony at front of ship. Thank you!!!! I am so excited to go on this cruise (in 59 days). Love St Thomas and St Martin, and I will definitely be checking in on this thread. By the way, the Radisson at Port Canaveral has there own shuttle from the airport to their hotel for $80 (plus the shuttle to the port the next day for $6 pp). That $80 is for all 5 of us ($130 for 10 of us if we wait for family). Just thought I'd add some info to this thread. Sweet Dreams everyone!! ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dutch Diver Posted January 26, 2014 #1059 Share Posted January 26, 2014 Is there a Sports Bar on the Dream??? And if so where is it??? The sports bar is not a separate room, but there are a couple of screens showing games at the casino bar. AFAIK there's no audio. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bosoxfan23061 Posted January 26, 2014 #1060 Share Posted January 26, 2014 Does anyone know if you can bring a DVD player with you? Is it possible to hook up an HDMI cable to the room tv? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sh1035 Posted January 26, 2014 #1061 Share Posted January 26, 2014 Does anyone know if you can bring a DVD player with you? Is it possible to hook up an HDMI cable to the room tv? No only in a few of the suites Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Qchell Posted January 26, 2014 #1062 Share Posted January 26, 2014 Unless it has been added since April - the EA Sports Bar is not on the Dream. Still an awesome ship and absolutely loved it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
malmo288 Posted March 9, 2014 #1063 Share Posted March 9, 2014 Sorry if this has already been asked but does anyone know how long the jogging track is on the dream? I want to stay active on vacation and it would be nice to know how many laps til 1 mile. Sent from my SCH-I545 using Forums mobile app Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tncap Posted March 11, 2014 #1064 Share Posted March 11, 2014 All the ships have a placard up on the track indicating how many laps equals a mile, kilometer, etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PTPD2312 Posted March 24, 2014 #1065 Share Posted March 24, 2014 At one point I heard sushi was on the dream prior to the dry dock and now that it was "upgraded" they no longer have sushi. Can anyone confirm this? Thank you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0hlovely Posted March 24, 2014 #1066 Share Posted March 24, 2014 At one point I heard sushi was on the dream prior to the dry dock and now that it was "upgraded" they no longer have sushi. Can anyone confirm this? Thank you. From the research I've done on this ship this is true. They replaced sushi place with the taste bar. There is sushi on one night as an appetizer in the mdr and on the buffet another day. I'm quite disappointed they got rid of it!

WLHyatt Posted March 24, 2014 #1067 Share Posted March 24, 2014 I saw in a review today that 7 laps on the jogging track is 1 mile. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tigerdadky Posted March 24, 2014 #1068 Share Posted March 24, 2014 While you are certainly correct that the new cruiser should keep an eye out for potential time changes when crossing time zones, I have not heard of the Dream changing times. And they haven't changed times in my 2 cruises on her, both of which involved port time being different than ship time. On the Eastern, sailing this time of year, we were one hour earlier than St Thomas & St Maarten. On the Western, cruising after we changed times in March, we were 1 hour later than Cozumel & Costa Maya, and 2 hours later than Roatan & Belize. We didn't change ship times to match port times. In fact, we cruised the Eastern route during the daylight savings switch in November, and we did change ship time for the daylight savings switch. Had we not, we would have been equal to St Thomas & St Maarten. But because we switched, we had a 1-hour difference. I have been on 7 cruises and have never changed times .

bjkTX Posted March 24, 2014 #1069 Share Posted March 24, 2014 I have been on 7 cruises and have never changed times . Just got off a cruise Saturday and we did change times when we went to Roatan and Belize - then back again. First time I can remember in 17 cruises. This was Princess - not Carnival.

Yes I will be doing another photo review for our cruise on the Dream when we return. I've already had a few people ask if I will be doing one. I enjoy reading the reviews of other people so it's only fair that I return the favor when I cruise. Happy to hear that you enjoy my reviews.....hopefully you will enjoy the next one just as much Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For the Championship game, I would think it may also be shown on the big screen on Lido. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
