May 12, 2011 dream cruise meet!!!

[hawky7]

Karla that is AWESOME!!!! I hope they send me one! How do you get those kinds of emails? I always hear about people getting cool stuff like that, but with all the times I've been to Disney, never received any cool stuff like that!!

Anyway- that is so awesome!!!

I'm SO EXCITED. I just opened my e-mail to find a PIN code from DIsney Destinations for free dining on our WDW part of our trip. It will save the 10 of us about $600!!! It is even better than the kids stay and play free discount. I've got an e-mail off to our DU agent to get us switched to the free dining. YIPPEE!!! I really love the free dining!

 

[allonte]

Yes! Let's do a meet up. I can hand out the FE list then too. We are doing 3 days at WDW before the cruise! My DD doesn't know about it yet. She is going to flip out! We're having her birthday "party" at CRT!

Gosh, I have no clue how I lucked out this time, but I'm thrilled it worked out. I have only gotten 2-3 codes in the 16 years we've been going.

How did you get a pin #? We are going to Disney this month but I've never heard of a pin#. Maybe because we are usually looking at Florida rates?? Just wondering what kind of deal you have to use to get free dining & if my Florida resident discount is better. Also did you go on the Disney Wonder Sept. 19, 2004? Your screen name looks familiar.... we were on that cruise.

I got an email with the pin. If staying at a value or moderate for 5 nights, paying rack rates and getting park tickets (magic your way pig) you get free quick service dining. It's a great deal for our family.

Not on the wonder, this is our first Disney cruise. DH and I have cruised other lines (saving Disney for trips with our kids and grandkids). This is a first cruise for all of the rest of our family.

So, where do we stand on the FE for this cruise. I'm wondering how many are participating so I can start making plans and buying supplies. How many people are on board with the FE?

I can let you know on Wednesday when I get back to my office. I have the list there. Right now, we have more adults than kids.

 

[hawky7]

YAY for adults!!! Since I don't have kids, we always just do a stateroom gift, because I have NO clue what kids today like!!!

 

[allonte]

Ok, so far we have 14 adults, 5 girls, 2 boys!

If anyone else wants to sign up for the Fish Extender Exchange, please email me!

The FE cut off date is April 9!!!

 

[Florida Princess]

Thanks Nikki---do you have the ages for the girls and boys? I like to get FE gifts that are age appropriate (like no small things for younger kiddies !)

Getting closer now---March is half over, then April and finally it will be MAY

 

[onecoolwife]

Hi everyone, onecoolpilots wife checking in here.

Totally excited about the trip and getting things ready. Since dd doesnt know about this trying to collect for the FE without her finding out.

Now there are 8 families.

 

[onecoolwife]

I know things might change since sign ups are still open but can we get an update of kids with ages, and how many girls/guys for the adults. I have 2 free weekends and this one is one of them and I would like to pick up a few things while doing our Disney shopping.

Thanks,
Kristie

 

[allonte]

Currently, in the FE, we have:

2 boys (8 and 10)
5 girls (3 - 8)
8 men

Thanks so much, now I know I need to swap out a few things since we have a few young ones!

So we cancelled our cruise. Sad to not get to go on the new ship and meet all of you... Had to pay the $200 fee too, but we got a smokin deal to Turks and Caicos, and it's on my top list of places to go!!! So we are heading there instead!!! Hope you all have an AMAZING cruise!!! (And you guys can remove 1 guy and 1 gal from the FE list)

Sorry you won't be joining us, but enjoy the Turks & Caicos. That is where we were headed on the cruise we had to cancel in December. Our friends loved it there when they went on that cruise without us! Have loads of fun.

I ordered my FE today and I'm working on my FE gifts. How exciting. Does anyone know about when to expect our DCL documents? We are nearing the 30 day mark so I would guess they will be coming soon! DH and I are counting the days.
