February 6th 2016 - Fantasy Western Cruise

[PredzMan]

We just moved to this cruise - they had us at "Star Wars Sea Day". Excited we are!

Welcome! I have a feeling our cruise will fill up quickly because of the star wars promo, exciting

Hello all,
I have been signed up for this cruise for a few weeks now and am just getting around to saying hello. We have been on one other Disney cruise and loved it. We are looking forward to participating in the FE and other activities. Grandma and Grandpa will also be joining us on this cruise but I am not sure if they will participate as they like to just relax. It is their first time on a Disney cruise but they have done other cruises before so they are nervous.

We were all pleasantly surprised when we found out that our cruise will now include the Star Wars Day at Sea. I look forward to talking to you all soon.

We just moved a placeholder that we booked on the 2/2/2015 dream, to
this 2/6/2016 Fantasy cruise. We are seniors and veteran cruisers.

Hello All! We just booked this cruise! We just got off the Feb. 7th Fantasy cruise and had a great time. This will be our 3rd disney cruise. My kids are very excited about the Star Wars theme and I'm happy its to some different ports than the last cruise (although I loved St. Thomas!). We have 3 boys and for now have booked rooms 9002/9004.

We're just off the Fantasy Feb 14th and moved our placeholder cruise when we got home. Is there is an organized FE already? I am excited!

We're also from New Orleans and this will be our first cruise but we have been to Disney World many many times. I'm already on the Facebook group and want to join a fish extender group but someone suggested I come here too. What is the difference between the groups? Is it the same people?

I need to learn so much and am feeling very overwhelmed.

 

[jelliott04]

Is anyone organizing the FE here yet? I'm very organized and a spreadsheet person and I'd like to organize our FE so I'm volunteering myself. I hope that's ok.

I organized the FE on our last cruise and everyone seemed very happy. Even sent out spreadsheets with maps of each room circled to each group. Privacy is a major concern of mine so only people in each individual group will get the other's information.

I'm all for that Jen I'm sure people don't mind help organizing....

I'm all for that too. Even though the cruise is almost a year away I am ready to get started. How do we join?

 

[jelliott04]

Yay! I'm ready to begin too!

Email me if you want to participate in the FE. My email is: jelliott04@gmail.com (note, two L's and two T's and Zero Four or just copy and paste.) PM's work too.

Yes you can. You just have to go to guest services and add them to your on board account. I don't think you can use them in the gift shops etc...

So here's my first question, of many to come I'm sure
Can I use Disney gift cards on the cruise?

You can actually use the Disney gift card in the shops on the ship. Or you can add them to your account at guest services.

Hi everyone! We booked this cruise while on the Magic February 1, 2015. So excited!!!

 

[Cheerio]

For anyone who wants to sign up for mixology, we have requested two classes hopefully on Sunday and Thursday afternoon (not Star Wars day!) we have also requested to have different beverages made as some may want to do both.
Email fantasyfebruary2016@gmail.com with name/stateroom for each person signing up and if you want Sunday/Thursday or both.

It's $20 per person, 1 hours class and 5 drinks made - tons of fun!

Please note this list is provided to DCL and you will be auto-billed regardless of attendance. We will find out specific days/times 30 days before sail date, where anyone can opt-out if necessary.

We (DH, DD (she'll be 7 at the time) and me) signed up for this cruise last week. Star Wars on the water was too good to miss! This will be our first cruise and we are super excited. I cannot seem to read enough. Plan plan plan.

 

[SacCruiser]

Just a heads up, I just realized that the Superbowl will be on Sunday the 7th. So hopefully they will have it on for everyone to watch.

I really hope they do something for it. Traveling with some friends that are diehard Seahawks fans (I suppose I should be too given I live in Seattle). If the Seahawks make it again and the game isn't televised, I think she'll pop a vein

I have read that last year they had it on the funnel vision and had snacks and games they played during the commercial breaks (no commercials shown on board). They also showed it in all of the bars that have tvs.

We were on the DREAM last year on Super Bowl Sunday. In fact we booked a placeholder then moved it to this cruise when we got home.
They show the game on the funnelvision, the pub, and on your tv in your cabin. It was too cold to watch the entire game outside so we watched the end in our cabin. The pub puts out their snack food early, and by 5:30PM there were no seats or tables available in the pub/sports bar. Be sure to wear you favorite teams colors that night. I wore a LS NYG top with black slacks to dinner. Lots of folks wore Seahawk jerseys. It was fun..

Did they show the halftime show??
