If it does split, there is nothing saying you can't deliver to everyone. That's what we are planning to do.
Us too.

We have the scale and it's accurate...it's not bringing the stuff home, it's bringing it there that's the issue...trust me, 4 people, 4 suitcases, I don't think that's unreasonable, but I don't want to have more than that. For a two week trip ( I know you'll be away longer) that we need multiple types of outfits (casual, fancy, etc) I didn't want to take a chance...plus with so many families, there's no way...you're going to need a suitcase just for the FE and I'm not paying the $100 for a bag to bring FE's. I just think for us, this year, we need to abstain.
Ah, I thought you meant your DH took two suitcases just for himself. We are packing three and a half suitcases for this trip (the half is just a smaller version of the other three larger ones). Our FE gifts are lightweight and don't take up more than the size of a larger shoebox - we plan our FE gifts based on how much room we'll have to take them - when we are driving to Port Canaveral and it doesn't matter, there are different things than when we are flying and have weight restrictions or have to pay for bags. It's nice to not have to pay for bags going to Europe - we went on our Alaska trip with just two suitcases. Of course we always do laundry so we can pack less. And I will say that one part of our FE gifts for Alaska we actually picked up in Vancouver rather than flying it over.

Where are you mailing your package too
I was wondering if you could bring wine on board? Wife and I would like to get some nice wine in Italy and other countries. Just wondering if you could bring any wine you buy on shore excursions back on board to drink?
This poll will timeout on April 13!http://http://www.disboards.com/showthread.php?t=3092197
P.S. I hope this works and that I didn't mess up...this is the first poll I've created on this Board.
Just because someone gives you something doesn't mean you have to take it home
And maybe you need to repack for your DH after he packs
DH bought one of those handheld luggage scales which is pretty accurate.
Never been involved in the FE, but there certainly seems to be a lot of interest. What are the guidelines? When are the surprises left in the FEs?
