Creator's Key Takeaways

So, a little background first. Uh Alisa and I are uh I would say semi veterans of Disney Cruise Line.

The refreshment pack package was really nice cuz along with with this you also get milkshakes at Johnny Rockets which was phenomenal.

It is, it is something that I wish I could bottle cuz you are just so excited. You're so happy.

They make it extremely easy, even though the ship is absolutely beyond immense.

Creator's Tips & Advice

✓Book a hotel near the airport if your flight is delayed.

✓Use the refreshment package for unlimited Coca-Cola Freestyles and other drinks.

✓Do the safety waiver for the Flow Rider before getting in line to avoid waiting twice.

✓Watch the safety video on the app before boarding to speed up muster.
