Is there still room to join this FE group? I am new to both these disboards, cruising in general, and fish extenders. Please let me know and feel free to educate me. Thank you! (I haven't quite figured out how to use this board yet, sorry if whatever I am doing here so far is not correct.)

Hello!
Very random question, but has anyone had luck getting off the waitlist for dining preferences? We would like the main dining, but it is currently unavailable. We are hesitant to book the cruise without confirmation of the main dining. We have two little ones and late dinners don't work for us. If anyone has any previous experiences I would be interested to hear!
And if we do book, we are definitely in for FE!

Don't worry too much, you and your family will probably have a lovely time ^_^ Glad you joined!
I can't say anything about the dolphin excursion, perhaps someone else would chip in or you can ask on the general cruise board
The short answer is you don't NEED to book anything ahead of time, but it can be helpful.
Recommended ahead of time is: Adult dining (Palo/Remy), Excursions, Nursery Times
Once Arrive: Any Alcohol tasting/mixing, kid/teen club times (you may want to double check this), Character meet tickets (Princess & Anna/Elsa), Castaway Cay 5K. You can also try reserving adult dining if you couldn't get any reservations ahead of time. I'd also recommend to drop off a pillowcase or picture frame (with markers if you want different colors) for the 'characters' to sign at guest services. It's a nice 'free' momento that kids (and adult kids!) really enjoy
Yes there is! Page 2 is where you can find the FE list and instructions how to sign up. Feel free to just copy/paste the info in a reply box, I will format it for you.
There is a link on the same post that gives a brief overview on what an FE is and how it works. If you have any additional questions, please feel free to ask and I (and others!) will do our best to answer. Alternatively, you can also search the boards
Hello! Ooooh well I hope you can book
Yes, I have heard of people being moved off the waitlist
If you can only waitlist, of course you can not confirm main dining and it is a small gamble. If you do not get off the waitlist, you can always speak with staff when you first board about changing. There are instructions on the personal navigator that tells you what times and where you can go to inquire about dining changes.Personal navigators are not available until day of cruise, but you can see pleanty of examples on disneycruiseblog

Amunet - I thought I posted our info in the FE thread, but I can't see it anywhere. Let me know if it shows up or if I need to redo. Thanks.

Nice to see some other Vibe aged passengers. I was beginning to think my girls would be the only girls in there. Enjoy your 1st trip! We did ours on the Fantasy last year and are now back for a 2nd!

Hi All--
We just booked, and the first thing I always do after booking is find the thread for our cruise. Haven't had a chance to read through everybody's introductions, but will plan to do that this evening.
Booking this late is pretty typical for my wife and I, since we are FL Residents from Orlando. The last minute deals for us are usually pretty sweet, so we're always the latecomers to the group. Last year, we booked on May 2 for our cruise on May 10, so we're not cutting it THAT close this time.
As I said, we are from Orlando, we live about 15 minutes north of WDW, so to say we are regulars is an understatement. We like the relief of living so close to the parks, because we can just go in for dinner and not feel pressured to cram in a full days visit. HOWEVER, when we visit DL or DLP, we are definitely the ones there for 18 hours straight each day. Ha!
Anywho, typically we do 2-3 DCL cruises a year, but this will be the first one since last May since we had a baby! We came back last year just before the 24-week cutoff by DCL, so we've been DYING to get back on board since this is the longest we've ever gone. Our son actually ended up arriving 3 months early, RIGHT after our "babymoon" ended, so after a long NICU stay plus adjusting to having a baby at home, we're ready for a vacation!
So, it's Anthony (that's me), I'll be 33 this Saturday, my wife Tiffany, who turned 31 last Sunday, and introducing Greyson Oliver, who will be 10 months when we sail (7 months adjusted).
Looking forward to interacting with you guys, I need to ask my wife if she feels up to FEs this year.
Here's some fun magnets we had on our door last time:
