August 10, 2013 Eastern Caribbean cruise on the Fantasy

[yellowrosedtxn]

Hi everyone! Glad we have so many people doing the fish extenders!

Karin, I am just reminding you that I would like to do whatever group you put me in as well as the late/newcomers (after Jun 30th). I will try to have a few extras, but after July 31st, I can't promise to have enough to go around for anyone else.

Have a great day!

Having looked through a lot of the posts, just wondering if there are any other "adult only" groups? Its just my husband and I on the cruise.

There are quite a few "adult only" groups. Disney does not only cater to those with kiddos, but they do a great job to provide for adults only.
Tom and I always cruise on our own and this will be cruises 11 and 12 since 2009. We really love the feel.
Let me know if you have any other questions.

Amanda,

You're not alone. My (future) wife and I will be celebrating our honeymoon on this trip.

No problem putting you on the same list!
Are there any kids in your group? If so, please let me know their names and ages.

Thank you!
The kids are Erin (15), Emma (12), and Michael and Grace (9 yr old twins).

Our cabin assignment is 2506. What if we upgrade at Port, how will we notify our FE group?

Now it's Game On! I feel like I won't be able to sleep well until we leave!

I am hoping that we will have a meet and greet on the ship prior to the deck party or right after that. Then if anyone has room changes, we can find that out at that time. But I am not sure what Karin is planning. Hope that helps.

I updated my info. Thank you for letting me know.

Should you upgrade at the port it will be in your hands to notify the people in your group.
This is best done by dropping a note with your new stateroom number into the FEs of the people in your group.
As someone has said, to just let everyone know at a meet and greet, let me tell you, it does not really work out. Many never make it to the meet, as there are lots of other things going on. Some meets are huge and you won't get to know everyone.
A note in the FEs is he easiest and most effective way.

Ok, will do.

hEY GUYS! Happy FRIDAY!!!

Karin- My grandparents got their cabin number yesterday! They are Diane and Jim in 6180 and they would like to participate in the FE.

What is the DVC presentation? Is that just if you booked with your points? JOrdan (my sister) and I finally bought in earlier this year. Our parents didn't have enough points to take all of us every time so we figured it was time to pitch in . This sounds like something my parents would be interested in...

It's getting closer and closer! After my birthday (JULY 10th) I'm sure I'll really kick it into high gear with packing and FE gifts!! i CAN'T WAIT!

Hi guys,

I'm sorry for the late notice but my my family and I are going to have to drop out of the FE group. I just waited to long to get something together and now one of my boys has joined a second travel hockey team and of course they want their money before we leave for the cruise.
I knew I should have started this months ago.

 

[dizneeat]

I put them on the list. Since they are GTY and if we do not know their stateroom number before we cut off, do you mind putting them on your personal list, as I have so far put the GTYs together. Let me know what you think.

Your grandparents have been on the list for quite some time, no problem, I didn't miss your post. I will update with their stateroom number later.

The DVC presentation is for everyone. You do not have to book on points, we never do, it gets too expensive.
It is just a fun little get together where they update you on newest offerings and you can win a few goodies.

No problem, Jen.
Things come up and we need to make some changes.
I am sure you will enjoy your cruise, FE or not.

to the DISboards and to our cruise thread!
We are all glad to have you on board.
I will put you onto the list in my first post in a few minutes and update the FE list. Thanks for letting me know all your info right away.
Did you read that we will split the FE list into groups? If you would like to be in more than one, please let me know.

How nice to have you on board as well. I will add you to the list of cruisers and FE participants in my first post in a few minutes and will update my online list. Thanks for providing all the information needed right away.

HI everyone! Welcome to the FE Group!

Sorry that you can't be a part of the FE group Jen, but I hope you really enjoy your cruise!

 

[dizneeat]

I have started to divide the FE list and I was wondering what everyone's opinion was .............

If we divide by headcount there will currently be 14 - 16 staterooms per group and we will have three groups (not counting any latecomers after the cut off date).

If we just split the group in half there should currently be 22 - 24 staterooms per group (not counting any new ones that might sign up in the week until we close).

Please let me know what your choice would be ..... by voting in the poll at the top of this page. I'm going with the majority.
