We just returned from a cruise on the Fantasy and are booked for this 4N on the Dream in July. Already counting down the days to our next DCL adventure. I'd like to get in on the FE list as well!

Welcome aboard
How was the Fantasy? we are going on the Fantasy in January, have not been on that ship yet. Can't wait

We will be joining you all on the Dream...we are soo excited!!!....this will be our 5th cruise.... but, we have never participated in doing an FE so we would really like to do it for this cruise...
we are DH Dennis, DW Juliane, DS Tyler 17 ,DD Kassidy 15

See you all soon, Juliane

 

[Tigger1313]

I started a FE list on the first post, I still need cabin numbers if you have one.
We are on GTY so we don't have one yet.
I also need to know kids names and any other notes you guys would like to add.
I so glad we have a few people who want to do the FE exchange. Hope more people will join

When would you guys like to close out the FE list
60 or 30 days before we sail?

 

[honeyblee]

We are GTY, too. Will update with cabin number when we have it.

Ooh, also, my preschooler has celiac disease, so we can't do some types of candy because of gluten and/or cross contamination. Just worth noting for FE gifts.

 

[GoofeeMom]

My family and I will be joining you on this cruise! There will be 12 of us total in 3 rooms. How does the FE work?

 

[Fabfivedisney]

This is my families first DC. I have been reading about the FE groups and want to participate, but not sure how to go about it. Could some kind person advise?

 

[Tigger1313]

Fish Extender (FE) - This is a fun "game" that is like a Secret Santa type idea. A Fish Extender (FE) itself is a pocket panel/bag you hang from the fish shaped hook outside your stateroom. Families that join the FE group hang the Fish Extender outside their cabin and then, as the cruise is underway, participants deliver little gifts to the others participating in the group by leaving them as a surprise in the fish extenders. Who doesn't love presents it's a ton of fun, not just for kids.

I put "no candy" next to your name on the FE list

Hi Cathy,
We would like to join in the FE but will be travelling from Australia via Europe so logistically we might need to see how many people plan to participate and when the cut off will be. Hopefully this will be okay and we will keep checking in over the coming months.
Regards,
Rachel

Rachel
so far it looks like a small group, if it gets too big I will split it into smaller groups

 

[Tigger1313]

Only 5 more months
any one else for FE gift exchange?
I think we will close the list on June 1

 

[LizCarolineSarika]

I am not sure how this works or where to locate the list. I will be traveling with my twins that will be turning 6 on the trip

Liz I put you on the FE list, have a look at the links on Post 13. It tells you every thing you need to know about FE.
I just need to know your Girls names and Cabin number
Let me know if you have any questions
Cathy

HI all! What are the "rules" for this FE exchange? Small gifts each night? One or two larger cabin gifts spread over the 4 nights?

Just curious...

Thanks!

I'm not one for "Rules" .
The only rule I think is a good one is to deliver gifts by the afternoon of the last day so people will have enough time to pack the gifts. I like to give one gift per cabin, but this looks like it could be a small list so I might do one gift per person. Everyone does it different. No right or wrong way. Just have fun
