I can’ t wait! TCM Cruises are the best, and, if possible, Disney will make them better! Any one else sailing for the third time?
Yes, we are!! Looking forward to this movie adventure, as you are Karen. How thrilled I was when Margaret O’Brien was added to the guest list. Ms. O’Brien was on my wish list .
I am so excited to see Ms. O’Brien…..what a great line up of stars. We always have a blast. Really looking forward to this year.
we’ve been on first two tcm movie cruises we are committed to Celebrity. Our first Seven cruises were on Carnival. we were not pleased with them. We will not be on the third cruise. we’re very disappointed tcm chose CARNIVAL, THANK YOU BEN AND DONNA.
The TCM cruise is on Disney Cruise Line’s Disney Magic, not a Carnival ship.
