July 20, 2015 The Wonder of Alaska

[linetbo]

Hi, I'm Karen and my family and I just booked our first ever Alaskan cruise for next summer with all of you. The cruise is to celebrate my mom's 75th birthday. We will be traveling with my mother Carolyn, my brother Warren (45 at cruise time), me (47 at cruise time) and my daughter Sarah (14 at cruise time). This is my 3rd cruise and my daughter's 2nd. We cruised on the Fantasy in August 2014 to the Eastern Caribbean and LOVED it!!! Needless to say, we convinced the rest of the family that we HAD to cruise on Disney in Alaska. We had an awesome Facebook group for our August cruise (and we are still all active in the group) and loved doing the FE's for our first Disney cruise. As long as the groups are too big (we had 91 people in our FE), we will consider participating again - hopefully with a smaller group!

My teen can't wait to spend time in the Vibe, so if you have a teen, let me know. She made tons of friends before our last cruise on Instagram with other teens who were also on the cruise and when they first met, it was instant friendship. Worked out great!

Can't wait to meet you all in 309 days!

My daughter will be 15 th for the cruise, we were in the Magic (mediterranean) this summer and she cant wait to meet all the teens on the vibe.

Hi, We will be on this cruise! Me, DH, DS 11, DD 9 and my brother's family (4 adults)! This will be our 4th cruise on DCL and the first cruise for my brother's family!

We are looking forward to this cruise! Can't wait!

We're going to have a big group. It will be my parents, siblings and I with all our family.

8 Adults
7 Children: - 7, 5, 5, 5, 3, 2, 1

We are all flying in from Texas on Saturday.

This will be my family's second Disney cruise, but a first for everyone else. I kinda convinced them we should do Disney.

Unfortunately, posts have been removed from a number of Cruise Meets threads including this one.

PLEASE review the Cruise Meet Policy regarding Cruise Meet and Fish Extender programs. - http://www.disboards.com/showthread.php?t=3353477

Links to Cruise Meet discussion/Fish Extenders other than those on the DIS may not be posted or offered by any other means (PM, email, "search" directions, etc.).

Cruise Meet threads are doing just fine still managing meet and FE discussions right here on the DIS as they have since FE began (also here on the DIS).

FE organizers generally need to know how many people (adults/children) are participating in each cabin with child ages for age appropriate gift giving. Other information you would like to share such as names, allergies, favorite characters, etc. is up to you. Other personal information is not really necessary. Those organizing FEs typically ask for the information to be posted in the meet thread or sent to them via PM.

For those posting in this Cruise Meet thread to join a FE, if no one comes forward to organize a FE for this cruise, anyone can organize the FE right in this thread.

Enjoy!

Thanks in advance for your cooperation.

Cruise Meet threads are doing just fine still managing meet and FE discussions right here on the DIS where FE began years ago..

FE organizers generally need to know how many people (adults/children) are participating in each cabin. Other information you would like to share such as first names, ages of child participants, allergies, favorite characters, etc. is up to you. Other personal information is not really necessary. Those organizing FEs typically ask for the information to be posted in the meet thread or sent to them via PM.

For those posting in this Cruise Meet thread to join a FE, since no one has come forward to organize a FE for this cruise here on the DIS, please feel free to start the FE right in this thread. There is certainly plenty of time to plan a FE for this cruise. All it takes is for someone to maintain a list of/for those participating which can easily be done in this thread. Many Cruise Meet threads have been doing it this way for years now here on the DIS.

Hi everyone! We are booked for our first Disney cruise! We've done the parks many times and have cruised twice, but this is our first time for a Disney cruise and we are so excited!! We have a DS who will be 16, a DD 14 and a DD who is 10. Looking forward to hearing what some of you recommend for older kids and looking to join a FE. Can't wait to meet everyone!!

So glad that there are people with older kids that will be cruising! I have a DS who will be 16 and a DD who is 14. Would love to do a small FE, but not sure how!

So excited! We just booked today(my hubby and 7 year old daughter and myself)! This will be our 3rd Disney cruise, and also our 3rd time to Alaska. (But 1st to Alaska on Disney!) All my 7 year old daughter wants to do is go back to see the baby huskies! So I booked even though we just got off the fantasy in Feb. First time ever we are not cruising with a veranda, but just couldn’t justify the extra $$ when we booked in Feb already for next year!

We most likely will also have our friends joining us (1 4 year old boy and 1 7 year old boy) and we both want to join the FE. Is someone already working on that? HAPPY to help organize! I live in Seattle, so if anyone needs any tips, let me know! Super excited! Teresa

I'm sorry, but I will not be able to organize a FE on this site. I have other responsibilities elsewhere.

We would love to participate in a FE group. I am new to this site and FE groups, so you will need to tell me how to get you our info.
