Creator's Key Takeaways

I'm your host, Mike Roman from be our guestpodcast.com and one of the senior agents over at the Magic for Less Travel.

The Dream class is the perfect class of ship, the Dream and the Fantasy, those two ships. I think that's the best class of ship for a first- timer.

Creator's Tips & Advice

Use a cross-body bag for parks instead of a large backpack for easier mobility.
Book a placeholder on your Disney cruise to secure a discount for future sailings.
Consider the Dream or Fantasy class ships for a first-time Disney cruise.
