    Default Undercover passengers??

    Here's one to stir up the conspiracy theory pot ... does anyone know if DCL employs undercover passengers to get first hand feedback on how operations are running? Our dining mates from our last cruise struck us as odd, as in:
    1). Flew in from mid-west for 3 day cruise only, no parks or anything else
    2).Bio was almost identical to ours, even down to the obscure online college my wife recvd masters degree from
    3). Never left the ship! 1st time cruisers and did not set foot onto Nassau or Castaway Cay
    4). Skipped disembarkation breakfast stating they had to be off ship @ 7 am- but ship didn't get all clear til after 7:30.

    And other quirks I noticed, but won't post now. So whatcha think? Too black helicopter & aluminium hats?

    The only thing that strikes me as odd is not getting off the ship.

    This doesn't strike me as odd at all.

    I know people who cruise but prefer to skip off-ship excursions.

    That online college you think is so obscure, maybe not really that obscure. Online college has become a popular option and there aren't a big bunch of them.

    Is your bio really all that unusual? For people in the same age/income range?

    Possibly had obligations that required skipping breakfast, or they were being polite and preferred not to say that they didn't want to breakfast with you.

    Normally, Disney likes to keep employees separate from normal guests. I don't think they want them griping in front of them. They typically like to keep like people together (whatever they use for that determination is unknown to me), but we were seated with a strange pairing. After the first night we realized, we both worked for the mouse. We were then free to air our dirty laundry without worry of other guests.

    I've been off the ship in Nassau, I don't blame them.
