I just got my inspiration for the FE exchange today, so I am excited to get the sign-ups going. Here are the basic guidelines that those participating agree to…

1. Gifts may be for either individuals or families, it’s up to your discretion and imagination. Just give something that you would be happy to receive in return.
2. Gifts may be delivered at any time during the cruise, allowing the givers to distribute them as they see fit. (I.e. All in one day, a couple of little gifts given over several days, passing out gifts to different decks on different days, etc.)
3. This is an honor system, so please be honorable and follow through on your intentions and commitment.

To sign up, please PM me the following info. If you want to email me, or you don't have enough posts to PM me, you can do so at lstenfort@yahoo.com.
Board Name:
Real Names and ages of Family Members (in case of personalization, and you can just say AD for adults. LOL!):
Cabin # if you have it:
Email address (Will not be given out. Only used for me to send you the final list):

I will compile the info. and distribute it only to those participating before the cruise. I will not give anyone else this information, nor use it for any other purposes. Your privacy will be respected.

If you sent me an email re: the FE exchange before this evening, I did not receive it, due to an email issue. Please resend, as all is fixed now.

Hey there Lynette, please add us to the roll call. It will be me, DW, DD (11), DS (8) and DS (8). This will be the 12th DCL cruise for me, the wife and daughter and #5 for the twins. Yes, we are crazy and we are parrottheads to boot!

We were on the Dream for a 5 night double dip in June and it was fantastic as always. Since we have done a double dip before we have now spent a total of two weeks on Castaway Cay, one of my favorite places on earth. Please don't let some of those negative trip reports get to you. The new ship was different, but just as great as the Magic and Wonder and the Disney service was there as well. We went on Freedom of the Seas in August, and let me tell you there is HUGE difference and Disney does it so much better.

Anyway, we have been to the ports of call many times, so if you have any questions about them or the ship - ask away.

Lynette,

Please add my family to the roll call. Family members are in the signature below. We are from the northwest suburbs of Chicago. This will be our 13th cruise (3rd on DCL) after a cruise coming in March on Royal Caribbean with the in-laws. We loved the Magic and Wonder and cannot wait to sail Fantasy!

Thanks to all the others that have contributed on the boards!

The Facebook page is fantastic, as well as the banner that was created. Thanks Jodi and Andrea!

Also, thanks Lisa for heading up the FE Exchange! We would love to participate. I will send you our information via email.

Wow so many cruises! How exciting, we have never cruised any other cruiseline but I don't know that we would want to.

Hi, My name is Julie and My daughter ( 17 at time of cruise ) and I will be onboard the June cruise as well. We are coming from Arizona and I think this will be our 4th Disney cruise but, it has been some time since our last (unfortunately). We are coming out from AZ and trying perhaps to budget 5-7 days at WDW before heading out to see. Any other cruisers on this thread planning that? My daughter would love additional company besides dear old Mom. Thanks

I have to cancel my Disney Fantasy Cruise, because I am expecting the unexpected. I am 10 weeks pregnant and due in July.

 

[joius24]

Congrats! We are in a similar boat We just welcomed a baby boy. And as much as we love Disney cruises, we are not taking an infant on a cruise ship.

We moved our reservation to NYE cruise on the Dream in 2013.

 

[chinarider]

Getting excited. Purchasing Disney gift cards at Target ( with discounts for red card and coupon promotion )- to use towards payment..... Made my ressies for 6/2-6/9 at POP prior to cruise. Now all we need to do is pray that business is good ( commission only ) and that I can afford both.

Just realized while reading through other posts and realized that it's SIX MONTHS and counting until we leave. Our temps tonight are supposed by be in the -0's with wind chills of -15F. I guess I'll just have to think warm thoughts and of the CC beach tonight as I try to stay warm.

Hope everyone has a great December!

Anyone planning yet? Thoughts, suggestions....

Hello, fellow cruisers!

Life has been busy, so it's been a while since I've been on here. So, I just wanted in and remind you that we do have a FE Exchange going on for this cruise. We'd love to have you join us if you're interested. We simply ask that you commit to delivering gifts to other participants some time during the cruise. You can do one item for the whole family, or different items for different age groups/people, it's up to you. The most important thing is that you do deliver your gifts at your convenience, and give something you'd be happy to receive.

Here's who I have down as participating so far...
Sammatt (2 rooms)
dlafarrell
SillyandI (2 rooms)
MariaFan22 (2 rooms)
Pixiedust215
sammydent
Pauley family

If you'd like to join, feel free to send me a PM or email me. lstenfort@yahoo.com
