Hello all! Cruising on DCL for the first time next May with you guys! It will be myself, my husband and our daughter who will be 23 months when we sail! Any other toddler parents?

Any other toddler parents?

Not a toddler parent, but I am another first-timer, welcome!

This will be our 2nd DCL cruise but our first without our kids. WE are celebrating our 15th anniversary. Looking forward to FE fun. This will be our first time participating with the FE.

Howdy all. We just moved our on-board booking to May 3rd, so we'll see everyone there. It'll be me, my wife, and 2 girls (9 and 4 turning 5 on the cruise).

Yay, more young kids for my only child to play with! Welcome also!

We are going to book this cruise this week. I am so excited. It will be my 6th cruise but first on Disney. It will be the kids 2nd cruise. We just did a 7 day carnival cruise in January and had so much fun.

It will be me, DH, my son who will be 6 and my daughter who will be 4. I am so excited. I just picked up an item at ikea to possibly make a fish extender!

 

[NCCathi]

Awesome Brooke! I like the planning lol. Every time I see something even vaguely Disney- themed I think FEs.

Hello! I'm thrilled to be joining this cruise with my husband and two kids (who will be 11 and 5). It will be our second - our first was the EBTA on the Magic a couple of months ago, and I haven't stopped missing our time on the ship! After getting back, we talked it up enough to convince my parents and brothers that a big-family trip would be a great idea, so here we are.

I've already set the countdown clock on my phone, and I'm planning out cruise-related gifts for my family. Maybe this time we'll do some fish extenders, now that I have a better idea of what I need to pack and what I can leave at home.

 

[NCCathi]

Hi and welcome! This will be my first DCL cruise so I am eager to get tips from others on the must-packs and the leave-at-homes. If I had my way I'd be packing already!

I just saw that the Avengers 2 comes out on 5/1/15.
Looks like we'll have a good movie to watch on board.

Hi All! My family is booked for this cruise. This is our 2nd Disney cruise. It is my husband, my daughter-5, son-3, and myself. We are so excited and would love to participate in a FE!

 

[atafast]

so excited for our first cruise! It will be myself (Teresa), my husband Aaron, my daughter Alyssa (11). Our countdown has started and we can't wait. Any advice for us newbies would be wonderful.

 

[KatyCM]

Can't wait for this cruise! My husband and I went on our first cruise with DCL last January for 4 nights and loved it so this time we have talked our families into coming with us! It'll be my husband and I and our 7month old, my parents and my 4 siblings (22,17,13,8), and my MIL and sister in law! This will be their first cruise experience!

 

[NCCathi]

Awesome! That will be so fun with extended family!

 

[DisneySara]

Hi Everyone! My boyfriend and I are on this cruise. It's his 2nd and my 5th Disney cruise. I was just on the Magic in September when it was in the Southern Caribbean and I'm looking forward to sailing on it again.

 

[NCCathi]

Wow, an addict . I'm so sure I'm going to love our first cruise that I'm looking at dates for another one to book while onboard! (I've heard that's the way to do it)

Welcome to the group!

Just checking in, this is the cruise we 'hope' to go on I must wait on IGT/VGT rates to book...I prefer this itinerary but also looking at the 10th...our son gets out of college May 1st..so if we can retrieve him (10 hour drive) and make the 14 hour drive to Port...we will make it This will be our fourth cruise, I'm the budget fanatic...and with Disney good deals pop up now and then...I'm banking on this cruise being a low booking (by the number of pages here, I think I'm on track ). We've sailed Mediterranean, Eastern Caribbean, and Mexican Riviera..all with kids sail free or better

Excited to see families with teens going...our kids are 16, 17 and 19. Travelling with five is never easy on budgets because we usually have to get two rooms or pay really high rates for verandahs that fit five. Congrats to the newlyweds! I need to go track down your report..my daughters dream of doing a wedding related to Disney somehow

For first time cruisers, get excited!!! It really is a wonderful experience for the kids as well as the parents/grandparents I'll check in every now and then, if anyone sees IGT rates pop up before me, please post!
