Hi !
Totally new to the message board process and I am intersted in participating in both the FE and SM's ....
( this transatlantic is my son and I's 4th disney cruise) but the data on the posts are overwhelming and I cant seem to get a handle on:
1. Who/how do I sign up with for FE and SMs
2. Where do I find suggestions for both kinds of gifts (and price ranges)
3. Are the dis board group meeting on the ship?

Anything you could help me with would be appreciated
thanks !
I hope I am not too late :)

WELCOME! In order to get to post #10 quickly .. consider making several posts ... perhaps tell us your first names in one post ... where you are from in another ... your ages (if you wish to share) in another, etc.

The initial gathering for the group will be 3:00 - 3:45PM, Promenade Lounge, Deck 3, midship - embarkation day (day of boarding, in Port Canaveral).

:banana:Welcome joius24! :banana:

You can just post your info here and auntlynne and/or Michelle2 will grab it.

Also here is a good thread for checking out the Fish Extenders people have used and the gifts they have received. Personally, I think a couple dollars per gift is plenty. Gifts that are fun and useful are always appreciated. On our first trip we gave mesh bags for folks to use on Castaway Cay. We are expected to gift at least one per cabin, but you can give one per person if you like, it is up to you.

A few of our family Dis Cruise factoids.....

My son and I got a tour of the Captains Bridge once (it is behind a door that looks like a bank vault Key pad coded entrance....)..... it was soooooooooooooo cool! ....

Got a backstage tour of the show stages after getting into a cool convesation (unknowingly) with the production manager and his girlfrind at Palo.

Fell asleep in the rainforest room once (woke up past 10 PM)and got locked in the spa ....LOL

I love the "long" rooms in Cat 11 6515 etc...
 
thannks again to all the feedback so far ...you guys ROCK !!!! How will I know what room my FE is? and who my SM is? I have not seen that yet.
 
I have to put a dis cruise pic up on my profile and signature..... oh my work to do LOL
 
Posted this on the main boards as well hoping to find some experienced answers, but some of you may know this. Montserrat sounds like a once in a lifetime trip if you read reviews on trip advisor and such. DCL description not so much. Did any take the Montserrat excursion on prior med cruises? The dcl description implies that all free time is outside on the trails, but I read on travel sites about all the amazing things inside the monastery. Is the free time right there, so we could spend much of it in the chapels, museum, etc. rather than all on the trials? Thanks for any help

With the SM you will be assigned a single individual to give to (like a secret Santa). Those assignments haven't happened yet. For FEs you give to all the people who are participating. So if we have 50 cabins participating you can give one gift to each cabin or one gift to each person in each cabin. You can see the list of those who have signed up so far at that link I posted previously.

With the FE you would be assigned a day to deliver your gifts and you give to the whole group, but only once. With the SM you give to only one person but you give 5-6 gifts.

Does that make sense?
 
Thanks for that priceline info! I have stayed there before (in fact, before the last TA in 2007) and loved it! I know how much of a savings that it can be off of the regular rooms.

Jeanne, when we were in a private can in Gibraltar, I think we had up to 7 or 8 people in our van. Me, Jared, Chase and 2 or 3 other couples. They tried not to leave without filling it up as much as they could. :headache:
It ended up being a great tour though!
We did notice that the farther away from the Rock that you were (on the walk to the Rock) and the later in the day it was, the cheaper the price. We were meeting some CMs that didn't get off the boat until later, and their prices pp were alot cheaper than we did ours, but their time constraints were a little bit more of a crunch. Easy walk to and from the ship though, and went through a really neat street that had lots of tourist shops!

:yay:We can WALK to the rock? :woohoo: How can I find out about that? Distance? Direction? safety? :confused3

:) thanks :thumbsup2
 
confused between secret mickeys and fish extenders.... how often how many who assigns to whom etc.... LOL still spinning slightly.

I do know I WILL be gluing - not sewing my extender NO TIME....(full time work- part time school - full time single mom.....wayyy to busy ...I still have the scrapbook makings for 2008 + 2009 cruises to put together LOL)

Thanks soooo Much Mrs. Gumdrop ...Much appreciate your help Feeling much better already:) I want to do BOTH !!!! Yay! .....
 
Thanks Mrs Gumdrop ...you have been very helpful with the FE sm clarification...want to do BOTH !!!!! I am excited!
 
yikes....I went to another page ....and dont know how LOL
 
I've always been afraid that if I didn't book right away, the ones I want would be gone already. OTOH, I'm usually up anyway. So, I'll be booking at 1101 central time. Can't wait!!

I just wanted to pop back and say that I have changed my tune on this one. I can stay up a little late tonight to get this thing done. How often do you go on a Transatlantic cruise?!?
