🆕New to Cruising? This Creator Addresses:

Long wait times for character meet and greets — Check schedules; lines may look worse than they are, especially for Minnie's house.

Navigating narrow pathways in Adventureland Treehouse — Follow posted directions to avoid collisions; it's a stairs-only experience.
