Sailing on the Disney Fantasy 4/18/2015

Our first Disney cruise was the week before Christmas 2013. We loved it & my husband signed us up for this cruise. We will be celebrating our daughter's 4th birthday the DAY of the cruise leaves! She loves Minnie Mouse so this is perfect. We'll make sure she meets Minnie Mouse that day for sure!

The kids loved the FE last time so we're in. They were also into pin trading!

Here's a quick question about FE's. I assume that if you are booked into the concierge level you won't be able to receive any FE gifts. Is this right?

Greetings to all! We are excited to FINALLY use our OBC and rebooking discount for this cruise! This will be our third cruise; went to Mexico on the Wonder in 2011 and the Caribbean on the Dream in 2012. So, looks like we need to go to either Alaska or Europe on the Magic lol.

My mom (and maybe her husband or my brother) will be coming also. We've extended the invite to numerous other friends/relatives, not sure who will end up actually joining us, but our family and my mom are all booked at this point!
Here's the important info for our immediate family:

1) Number of adults / children in your group: 2 adults, 3 kids (although 1 is technically an adult now!)
2) Names of adults in your group: Josh & Danelle
3) Ages of children in your party (at your discretion): DD 20, DS 16, DS 14
4) General location of where you currently live: Vancouver, WA (Pacific NW - Portland, OR area)
5) Castaway Club Level: Silver
6) Disney Vacation Club owner?: Sadly, not yet

Also crazy excited for our 20th anniversary vacation that just the hubby and I will be taking this November! Sorry kids...you get to stay home this time, just like for our 10th anniversary.

I don't get on here too often, but will try to change that now that we have a cruise that we are planning, and new friends to make that will be joining us! =D

Hi dleggett2, I believe you still CAN participate in the FE program. Concierge just give you perks but we can still get to your rooms.

I haven't been on here in a while and looked at the countdown tickers everyone has. Looking at the 258 days on my DCL app makes me feel depressed, but then seeing it as month/day countdown (8 months) it doesn't seem so bad!
So looking forward to REALLY starting my FE gifts (just been piddling around with them as didn't want to look too desperate...) in the new year.
And can't wait to meet all you wonderful people!

Greetings all Fantasy ship go'ers. Here is some info about us:

This will be our second Disney Cruise, our first was earlier this year on the Magic. That was 5 days so we thought we would make this one a full week. We had a blast on that one, so the Fantasy has even more expectations to live up to

We live in the Raleigh area, but are transplanted yankees. Both from the Philly area (her PA, him NJ).

We are looking forward to this cruise in the spring.

 

[NCDisneyFun]

Was wondering if there is a formal night on the 7 day cruise? Also, we did the mud room experience, so if anyone wants more info on that, I would be willing to share our experience.
