April 12, 2014 Fantasy - Western Caribbean - Calling all Spring Breakers

[Fosterchic]

Thank you, Bubbasmom99!

Hello all we will be on the cruise too. My mom, my DD who will be 17 at the time of the cruise, and myself. This will be our 19th DCL cruise.

It maybe my daughter's last full cruise as a 17 year old. We do have a cruise booked where the last day she turns 18 and will have dinner in Palo that night.

I know somebody mentioned that if the child turns 18 and still in HS they can still go to Vibe. I have heard that no matter what on the new ships 18 you are done. My daughter says some people have been able to but she is not sure.

We might be interested in the FE if a small group, because we have never done it before.

Excited to get to know you all

Hey all - I have collected lots of interest for the FE exchange but I think we should wait to finalize the lists until the fall - definitely until Southwest has released flight ticketing, and who knows what else might affect people... right? I think 6 months is still enough time to work on projects, and it can be all finalized before the holidays start creeping up on us - right? So sound good? In that case, I will continue to collect indications of interest for the time being and put the lists together in the fall.

Here is the link to the interest form for the newer people:

Hi Everyone,
I’m Joyce, this will be my family’s first Disney cruise! Dh and I did a Carnival cruise for our honeymoon 10 years ago. We are excited for this one. My 8yo dd has watched the Disney Cruise Behind the Magic special four times in the last 24 hours. She is fired up!

We have a total of 11 people coming for my sis and bil’s 25th wedding anniversary. My sister, bil, nieces and parents all did a Disney cruise together about 8 years ago. For me, dh and our two girls this will be a first.
I’m interested in the doing the FE. Although I admit I am a little intimidated by the amount of work I may be getting myself into!
Thank you all for all of the information you have already provided!

Joyce

We are fellow cruise mates! It will be me Linda, dh Mike, dd Michelle (17) and dd Laura (13) ages at sail time. This will be my 10th, dh 9th and dd's 8th Disney Cruise. The girls will be on Spring Break. This will also be the last time our dd(17) will be able to do the clubs Our cruise after this one will be the day after her 18th birthday. We are looking forward to being on the Fantasy for the first time. We have 2 connecting aft cabins with verandas, our first time aft. I've read mixed reviews and am willing to give it a try.

I'll read back through the posts. We would like to join the FE. I've read a few pages and see that there are some cruisers not to far from us and there are certainly kids with similar ages!

I'd like the FB link also please. Wish I could stick around for a bit today but it is off to work!

Hey Girl! Well it's good to see if we join this cruise we'll have someone to drink with!!

We're looking at this cruise or B2B 5-days on the Wonder out of MIA. Probably won't commit for a while, but it would be awesome to cruise with you again!

We're still pretty wiped out from our May Pacific Coast Repo and June Mediterranean "marathon", so it's hard to get too excited yet. I'm still in recovery mode.

Anyway, I'll keep an eye on the thread and keep you posted. Looks like a great group! Hope all is well. Take care.

Fosters are going!
Cabin #10658
We are in Folsom, CA right now- but are relocating to Austin, Tx this summer. Anyone from Austin going on this cruise?

(Adnil- we were on Ship of Fools/Mexican Riviera together last year!)

Count us in on the Fish extender too.
Jen & Bill
Wesley: son, age 14
Grady: son, age 12

It's starting to look like a Ship of Fools reunion! We must all have spring break at the same time. Hopefully we'll be able to join you!

Hi- we will be joining you all on this cruise. We've done a couple of easterns but never a western caribbean so it will be fun to see some new ports.

Travelers will include me, DH, DD (16) and DS (14).

Now for the worst part- the waiting...

And what do I see? It's a small world after all! Good to see some familiar names. I kinda went overboard last year cruising and am going through withdrawals this year! Would love to cruise with you all again! I don't know of a secret veranda but we've got 2 aft cabins so I hope you can stop on by!

Hi, I've posted on the facebook group but figured I'd post here too.

This is our first cruise. Going are my Mom, my self, and my daughter who will be 1 month shy of 16. We are also going to do the FE. I'm hoping there are other single mom's as well as seniors we can meet while on board.

I am a single mother traveling with my daughter,who will be almost 18, and my mother

 

[Rush 2112]

Great! Mom will turn 79 the week we get back. At the moment she does not plan on doing any shore excursions. I am a little concerned about the late dining for her, but I suppose a mid afternoon nap is a good solution! Looking forward to meeting you and your family!

My daughter will be about 34 days from her 18th birthday, but who's counting right? I really want to do this trip as it will be her last opportunity to use the "kids clubs". She has always enjoyed the clubs and made many friends. I'm really looking forward to this trip being her Senior trip.

Hello, we are all booked!
We are from Uk, family of 4. Me, hubby and daughter who will be 7 and son who will be 3. Have cruised on The Magic before, first time on Fantasy.
Would love to join the FE. Off to find Facebook page.

On my Fantasy honeymoon we swam with dolphins, snorkled at stingray city, and went to salsa&salsa (which I think was my favorite). What is everone's favorite excursions or recommendations so I can immerse myself in some cruise planning?

 

[My2Qtz0205]

I am vacationing at the beach. I went into a local scrapbook store and found Disney cruise scrapbooking paper and stickers! Yay!

Hi I'm going with DH & DD 6 and this will be our first Disney cruise. We're surprising DD with the cruise as a Christmas present. I'm already part of the FB group but thought I'd chime in here.

I think I'm interested in a small FE group. Since this is the first a large group is too intimidating. I'm heading over to fill out survey next

 

[Tricia's mom]

DH asked me the other night when we were going to be doing another Disney cruise ??? I smiled and said April 12th.....
I waited for his response .... Oh okay that's good! What itinerary ?
I thought he would have been annoyed that I booked all ready !
Now that the summer is over I need something to look forward too. !

Hello All-
I just cruised on the Fantasy August 17th and we are cruising again on April 12, 2014 for our 20th Anniversary. I had a great time doing the FE with my last group and getting to know everyone prior to the cruise. I will be traveling two kids one is a DD 16 and a DS 11. Please let me know what the Facebook name is so I can join that too. Looking forward to getting to know a new group of people before our April sailing.
