Are you organizing the fish extender list or know who might be? Thanks

Sorry, I'm not the one organizing the FE nor am I participating in it, but if you send a message to tigerlilly878, she should be able to fill you in on everything about the FE.

We are having a Meet and Greet on boarding day at approximately 2:30pm. Would love for your family to join us and look forward to meeting everyone.

**** ROLL CALLLLL ****
Disney Fantasy sailing from Port Canaveral on 17 Oct 2015

This site is for us all to get to know one another, share tips and tricks, plan events like meet ups and FE's and get into the spirit of planning for the next 1.5 yrs So please let us know who you are and where you are from and if you are interested in planning or organizing anything...

I am Christina and my Husband is Josh and we are from Navarre, FL. I am a Disneyaholic and a planner by nature. We are DVC members and our home resort is Animal Kingdom Lodge. We do not have children yet but we have three Beagle Furbabies.


Please check this welcome post from time to time because I will be editing it as we get more info and events


Please feel free to participate in any format that suits you. We will be cross posting important information to each format while maintaining your privacy.


Now lets have some planning fun!!

Ok...so do I reply to this post to get on the FE list? Another person said you may be organizing it...we definitely want to get in on it. This will be our 2nd cruise...me, my husband, daughter who will turn 10 on the cruise and 5 year old son. We are Disney crazy and loved our first cruise October 2013 on the dream...and it was a dream! My parents gave me, my two brothers and our families, for a total of 15, that as a surprise gift. My parents coming back and maybe one brother. My kids don't know yet! Daughter has been to Disney world 12 times and this will be first year not to do parks at least once if not twice since 2006. But we think the 7 night will be worth it! Other cruise we did 4 nights and 3 after at Disney. Excited for the Fantasy...here its even a little better than the dream.

Anyone have any passport vs birth certificate thoughts...we did birth certificates before and really don't want to spend the extra money for passports.

Thanks!

It'll be my mom, dad, my aunt, my sister, and myself (we are all adults) from Pittsburgh, PA! And we are celebrating my mother's and my birthday. We can't wait! I added the Facebook group too cause we are looking to do the Fish Extender.Only 216 more days!

to you and all of your family. My DD & I are very excited about this cruise too. This will be our 4th Disney cruise and our 2nd on the Fantasy. We are from Southeast Louisiana, about 50 miles north of New Orleans. Where will you be staying the night before the cruise? We are staying at the Hampton Inn Cocoa Beach. I'm sure it will be a lot of fun celebrating both of your birthdays on the cruise. Look forward to meeting all of you!

Thank you! So we just finished booking everything (had to wait for that pesky non-home resort DVC window to open) but we got exactly what we wanted. Before the cruise, we are staying at the new Poly Bungalows. After we have a 2br villa at the Grand Floridian. I'm literally bouncing right now (I just clicked the confirm reservations button). We wanted to do Coco Beach originally but cease of Food and Wine and MNSSHP, we chose on property

Happy Friday everyone!!! Down to 211 days!!! Woohoo

Welcome!!! We are DVC members as well. I am excited to here about your stay at the Poly Bungalow!! We will probably only stay there for a VERY special vacation... We have a small package of 100 points which is plenty for us, but the Poly Bungalows are more than we get for the whole yr per night 0_0...

Glad you found us!!
Happy Planning

That's the point package I have. I have 100 points. However, my parents have 300 points so together we have 400 points. I booked 1 night using banked and this year points and my parents booked the other night and the Grand Floridian (they own there). We are getting really excited! Why can't we go tomorrow?!?!?

 

[abitagirl916]

We are down to 200 days!!! My daughter & I are so excited to sail on the Fantasy again!

 

[abitagirl916]

Ok people, we are finally under 200 days!!!

 

[abitagirl916]

Hope everyone had a Happy Easter!!
We now have 194 more days to go!

 

[abitagirl916]

Our pirate costumes came in that we ordered. Can't wait until Pirate Night on our cruise so we can wear them!!!
Is anyone as excited about this cruise as I am?!!!

Hello everyone! I am new to the forum but not to Disney or cruising. I have been bumping a dummy cruise off into the future for 2 years now and have finally chosen a cruise!

It is going to me, Kellie, and my husband Michael. We are celebrating our 10th Anniversary with this cruise and it is our first time on the Fantasy. I am interested in the FE but I am too much of a newbie to send a PM but I did put in a request for the FB group. I am looking forward to meeting everyone here and on the cruise!

Kellie and Michael. Although it's early, Happy Anniversary! I will be cruising with my daughter and this will be our 4th Disney cruise, 2nd on the Fantasy. The only ship we have not sailed on is the Wonder. We sailed on our 1st cruise with my late husband on the Magic in October 2007 (we celebrated our 23rd anniversary on that cruise), on the Dream just my DD and myself in June 2011, and on the Fantasy along with my Aunt in October 2013. I think you will love the Fantasy. We are so excited to be sailing on the Fantasy again. Hope to do and see some things we missed the first time.

 

[abitagirl916]

To all of the newcomers, we will have a Meet and Greet on boarding day, most likely at 2:30pm. When the cruise gets closer, we will finalize the date and location and it will be posted on this forum. Hope to see and meet everyone there!!

My husband and I have done one other Disney cruise on the Dream in August 2013 and we loved it. We are doing a pre and post cruise resort stay this time to really make this one special. I am really excited to see the things on the Fantasy that aren't on the other ships and to also do a brunch since we missed that on our first cruise.

In addition to things that the Fantasy has different from the Dream, another difference is this cruise is 7 nights!! More time to enjoy everything.
, glad to have you join this cruise!
