Ahoy! Welcome aboard the Disney Parks Moms Panel, Elizabeth!
Shiver me timbers! It sounds like you are planning a high seas adventure with Captain Mickey! Your entire pirate crew can get excited for all of the
magic included onboard. I am thrilled for you to set sail!
I remember on my very first cruise walking the hallways and seeing these hanging "mailboxes" wondering what I was missing out on! After some research when we returned home, I found information about what is known as Fish Extender gift exchanges. This is not a Disney Cruise Line sponsored activity, but rather a movement of like minded cruising enthusiasts that use this gift exchange as an opportunity to get to know fellow cruisers from all over the world!
Fish Extender groups are typically created by an administrator on the corresponding cruise's Facebook page. These pages are unofficial and not created by Disney Cruise Line. A quick search of your ship and sailing date on Facebook will likely help you find your group and allow you to inquire about planned Fish Extender exchanges.
There are even more
onboard activities that give you the opportunity to meet your fellow cruisers. Use your
Disney Cruise Line Navigator App to check for times and locations of these events. My family loves the games and parties in the
D Lounge. It is the perfect venue to meet other pirate crews like yours!
Swim back to the Disney Parks Moms Panel if you have any other questions as you plan for your adventure!
"Sea" ya real soon! Angie
