Creator's Key Takeaways

Now, one thing that we highly recommend is purchasing the photo pass package.

The good thing also that you can use the app to communicate with other people in your party free of charge since it uses the boat's Wi-Fi to communicate.

We found it had the most interactions and the most coolest shows.

These shows are amazing. A mustsee. Just amazing in effects, sounds, and lights.

Creator's Tips & Advice

Download the Disney Cruise Line app before boarding.
Purchase the photo pass package for photos throughout the cruise.
Check your arrival time at Port Canaveral and be there no later than 1 hour before 3:00.
Walk around and take in all the details of the ship.
Use the app to communicate with others in your party for free.
