June 8, 2015 Alaskan cruise on the Wonder

[ocshannon]

This is our first cruise. We can't wait. We really want to participate in the FE group. Is there a separate link for that? I love reading the threads and getting tips from so many experienced travelers.

This is our 1st dcl trip. My DD and DS could not be more excited. This mom is more concern about the plane ride with 3DD's and 1 DS under 10.

FE organizers generally need to know how many people (adults/children) are participating in each cabin. Other information you would like to share such as first names, ages of child participants, allergies, favorite characters, etc. is up to you. Other personal information is not really necessary. Those organizing FEs typically ask for the information to be posted in the meet thread or sent to them via PM.

For those posting in this Cruise Meet thread to join a FE, since no one seems to be coming forward to organize a FE for this cruise here on the DIS, please feel free to start the FE right in this thread.

There is certainly plenty of time to plan a FE for this cruise. All it takes is for someone to maintain a list of/for those participating which can easily be done in this thread. Cruise Meet threads have been doing it this way for years now here on the DIS. If anyone is interested in doing this, feel free to contact me for some suggestions.

Hi I am also looking for a FE group. This is our first cruise and I am new to the FE stuff. Any info would be great! It's myself/husband/daughter (4 yrs old).

 

[Libbey0]

I'm interested in the FE group too...traveling with two boys 6 & 7. How do we get involved?

 

[Jenny Burtner]

Hello all! This is our second Disney Cruise. Our first was to the Bahamas. We would love to join in on the Fish Extender exchange. I have already purchased many items!! That just shows you how EXCITED I am about it! We have 2 kids. Our daughter Emily is 12 and our son Ryan is 8. Neither one of them have any food allergies. We will be celebrating our 14th wedding anniversary onboard. Looking forward to meeting our fellow shipmates! We are traveling from Austin Texas.

 

[Jenny Burtner]

Hi all!
We are booked for this cruise too! We are so excited!! It'll be myself, DH and our (then) 10 yo dd. Amy, glad to know we won't be the only Texans on board!

Forgot to add, it'll be DH & I 4th cruise and dd's 1st on DCL

We are also from Texas and will be on this cruise! Austin area.

 

[Mo Green]

I think we need to just get organized I am happy to get all the info and send it out.

 

[Mo Green]

Just booked, it will be me, my wife, and twin girls, age 9, Julia and Grace. I am also sailing Alaska this summer on July 7th this year, I will have lots of pictures and reviews to share.

I am coordinating the Fish Extender for the cruise this summer, it is a small group. I think we already have more people in this group!

Glad to see so much excitement already! I am up for coordinating the FE, or helping out with meet and greets or cabin crawls.

Hi there are like 7 people I saw on this so far looking for a group. I offered to organize one, do u have all the people you need? Or would you like to be a part of ours?

 

[Mo Green]

Hi we just made reservations for this cruise. We have a very large group going. For almost all of us its our first cruise. Me, DH, 3DSis, 2DBIL, my parents, my BIL parents and BIL grandma, DD15, DS13, DN14, DN13, DN11, DN9, and possibly my BIL sis, her DH and 2 DS 6 and 4 I think. I am a little worried about my son since he is the only boy in a group of 5 girls (N is niece for all of them). If my BIL sis comes it will add 2 boys, but they are so much younger they won't really be hanging out together. I am so excited! Any tips for a first timer would be appreciated. Also I wanted to make FE's for everybody, does anyone have the dimensions of the space they hang in?

Thanks for starting an FE group! Our family is travelling with a large group of about 30, the adults do not wish to participate in the FE but the kids will. We have 9 kids in our group ranging from 4-11 years of age.

 

[Patty04]

My husband, daughter (11), and I are becoming very excited about our first cruise! My daughter and I would like to join the fish extender group as well.

Hello all! I had posted several months ago and then thought we'd have to cancel. However, we finally confirmed a week before final payment that this trip is a go! Can we leave tomorrow? LOL

My husband BJ and I are traveling with our 14 year old son, Michael and 11 year old daughter Catie. Michael loved hanging out at the Edge the last two cruises we were on and this time he's old enough for the Vibe. Catie will be heading into the Edge for the first time and she can't wait. She tried out the Oceaneer's Club the previous cruises and didn't enjoy them. However for those of you with kids who will be signing up know that the Oceaneers Club/Laboratory don't let that be a measuring stick. Some kids love the clubs and others not so much.

Hello All!

We are so excited for our Alaskan cruise. This will be the 3rd in 18 months. We will have my husband (Mike), son (Ben 13), daughter (Annabelle 9), and me! My in-laws are traveling on this one too! We are also from Texas. Looks like there are quite a few of us.

Counting the days!!

 

[cpike124]

Is there someone keeping a running tally as to how many kids and adults will be participating?
