Creator's Key Takeaways

I can definitely say there is a decision or two that I would have made differently

I call these pools tiny human soup for a reason because they are always full

the point of a Disney cruise vacation is multifold it is to get you on the ship with your family

I would throw bedtime out the window I understand that on some level you want to keep them on their schedule but you're paying a lot of money per hour to be on the cruise ship

Creator's Tips & Advice

โœ“Get the earliest Port arrival time for online check-in at midnight Eastern Standard Time
โœ“Wear swimsuits under clothes on embarkation day to get straight to the pool
โœ“Register kids for youth clubs pre-cruise or upon boarding
โœ“Schedule downtime even if it's just watching a movie on deck
โœ“Pick early or late dining based on your family's schedule
โœ“Bring magnets to decorate your stateroom door
