Hi everyone! I just booked our cruise today. My husband and I are bringing our DS (4 at time of sailing), grandmother, grandfather and brother. We sailed on the Magic in April 2013 and can't wait to be on the Fantasy. This will be the 1st DCL cruise for grandparents and brother. Looking forward to the trip!

Hi guys!

Wow, are we late to the party?!
My name is Kim - 29
Husband: John - 33
Jake - 6
Ava - 2

This is only our second Disney cruise, we did the dream in 2012 for 4 nights and it wasn't nearly long enough! We live in St. Augustine Florida so we are about 1.5-2h from Disney.

We are super excited and would like to join in the fish extender I was just given a room number but its not with me right now so I'll get it. Totally unprepared and I'm the planner of the group, haha! Yikes.

Looking forward to being excited with everyone!

Hello all, we will be joining you on this cruise as well. It will be myself, Andrea, my DH, Ryan and two of our DD's Riley and Bailey, 14 and 9 at time of sailing. This is our 8th Disney cruise, but our first time on the Fantasy, and our first time not bringing all of our DD's. Our oldest will be 20 at the time, she's not too happy that we are actually cruising without her, but it was bound to happen sooner or later. Also going, is my brother and his family, as well as some friends of ours from home. I think right now we have 6 cabins total in our group.
We actually booked it last February when we were on the Magic, but until recently I wasn't completely convinced that we would be able to go, my DH however is determined, so here we are....

Hi SIL. Here we go again. This will be our 5th disney cruise. It will be me my dh and our son 12. Then there is my dm dd and sil and her heard. She lives on the west coast and we live on the east. There is no better way to get our families together. It seems like everytime we cruise another family gets hooked. Looking forward to sharing the fun with our family and friends.

Just booked!!! So excited!!!

We will be on this cruise for our honeymoon! I have never cruised before, so it will be my first cruise EVER. I am a research fanatic and that's almost all I have been doing for days now..

We booked in 5E GTY ... though I am hoping to stay in 5E because those aft staterooms look awesome.

Looking forward to sharing planning with everyone !

Oh you're in trouble now.. best piece of advice make sure that you have money to pit down on another cruisr while you are on board. You will kick yourself if you don't.

So I have read!! After just paying for wedding AND a cruise ... I am not sure how broke we will be --- but if we can make it happen for sure!

 

[dismom73]

Just thought I would check in and see if anyone has anything planned or booked yet? We haven't planned anything yet (and that is so unlike me). I think I'm going to start looking into hotels and rental cars soon, and then work my way to shore excursions.

Thanks so much!!! I think I ran into the wall of lots of info collected ... But don't want to actually spoil having an initial experience ! Hah. I love that this is here so we can have some friends to maybe run into on board

Eek! I have not checked into this thread in a bit and look at all the new cruises we have! A big welcome to all of you. I will get in touch with those who want to be a part of the FE this week to make sure I have all the right info. Be sure to check out our Facebook group too. I believe the link is on the first page of the thread so excited our group is growing!

Hi there!! My family and I are going on this Disney cruise in May. It's our first cruise ever!
We would love to participate in the fish extenders fun. We are a family of four - my husband Rob, me (Gay), Ben (13), and Ana (12). Do you think older adults would enjoy the fish extenders group as well? My in-laws and parents are also joining us in different rooms.

It's our honeymoon and first cruise too!! We have an aft balcony... You should totally try to switch to one (not that I have any experience, but I hear they're awesome!). Are you guys going to WDW too? We're coming in the Tuesday before and staying at Beach Club.

I just requested to join the FB group, FYI. In case anyone is like...who is this new person?

Thanks!

We will be joining all of you on this cruise, my husband two daughters and their families.

Hi all. We are so excited to be joining everyone, and we can hardly wait until May! We are James and Jodie (parents), and Abby (8) and Jordan (15). Oh, and we want to join in the FE fun too!

 

[dismom73]

Haven't been on here in awhile...Welcome to the new comers!

We've been so busy around here I haven't had any time to get excited about this cruise! I usually have everything all planned out by now. All we have so far is our hotels booked for before the cruise. Still need to do rental car and excursions, make door magnets and decide if we are doing FE.

gaplastina, Remy is an adult only restaurant. There are two on the Fantasy, Palo and Remy. Remy is the French themed, more upscale (and more expensive) of the two. We've only been to Palo, but I've read lots of good things about Remy.
