I have no idea how to do that, and I am so glad you brought it up. Do I call the cruise line?

Did you book through Disney or a TA? Call whomever you booked through. Be sure to have the conformation number and cabin # of your family. Then just request for the ressies to be linked. Our TA (Dreams Unlimited) handled this for us easily. If you are linked then you will automatically be seated together for dinner, so make sure you all want the same seating. Can't wait!!

What are you all doing for transportation? I'm trying to figure out the best way to go airport to DCL with a grocery stop, and DCL to WDW after with another grocery stop. It seems all the transportation only includes one stop for a round trip. Can't decide if we should just do two one-way rentals and drive ourselves? Any suggestions?

 

["Cinder" Ella's Mom]

We are staying at WDW for two nights before the cruise and have a 2 day, one way rental to port. That way we can stop for wine, etc. We rented from Budget with a code I found on these boards. $80.00 one way for Thursday-Saturday (2 full days).

Can you share the code with me? I'd really appreciate it! Thanks!

We are also going to stay at he Hyatt at the Airport and we were thinking of just taking a shuttle to the port. Haven't really researched that part out yet. We plan on bringing wine with us in our suit cases.

We will also be staying at the Hyatt MCO the night before the cruise. We are taking the Disney bus down to the port. Does anyone know where we can buy a case of water around the hotel or port?

I've read on here that rather than a case of water, take refillable bottles. Lots of people have said that the water is just fine on the cruise ship, plus you can fill it with other drinks.

Just booked our second Disney cruise! Woo Hoo! We'll be joining you in July!

It will be me, my husband, and 2 daughters, ages 14 & 11!

I just sent a note to join the FE list and a request for the Facebook group. We did the FE on our first cruise (the Dream in June 2011) and my kids LOVED it!

Can't wait!

 

[carissa1970]

Does someone set up some sort of meeting for all of us, or do we just hope to run into each other? I am hoping we have a meeting!

Our last cruise we had a meet at 3:00 till 3:45 just before the muster drill we meet at The Bon Voyage Lounge located on deck 3 behind guest services

It seems I cannot post a file on this board so I cannot put the FE list on here. I have posted it on the FB page. If you are not a member of the FB page or prefer not to use FB, email me and I will email you a copy of the current FE list. If anyone can tell me how to post a file her, I will be glad to do that also.

Is anyone thinking about booking a Bernard's tour on St. Maarten?

This is my family's first cruise and time to WDW. We are very excited! My DS is 3 and I was thinking if booking him a pirate make over for pirate night. Anyone know if we can book that when the dates open to make reservation?
