Have you received the formal letter stating PIR date, mailing address, ship and division yet?

We thought our son would be in the December 6th PIR, but P-days went a little longer than we thought and he is now the 13th!

Either way, good luck to you and your son!

Apologies for taking so long to respond. Between work and a never-ending list of things that need immediate attention, I haven't had much time check in.

We received the letter a couple of weeks ago. Knowing that nothing is ever entirely set in stone when it comes to these things, I paid a bit more to make sure I could cancel or change the reservations without any penalty just in case. :)

Good luck with your son as well.
