Creator's Key Takeaways

Disney is just too expensive so you are paying the Disney tax unfortunately so Disney is about two to three times the cost of other family cruise lines

the crowds and the cues absolutely everywhere there was just crowds and cues it started honestly for the moment you get on

the must really really really dampened my first day because we were exhausted because we had arguing children children who were upset and didn't want to be there

the food we pay a premium for Disney we had heard Ray reviews about the food and unfortunately it just was not our experience

Creator's Tips & Advice

Log in 75 days in advance to book activities, as priority goes to previous Disney cruisers
Consider the buffet for longer breakfast hours if sit-down meal times don't work with your schedule

YouTube Video Description

Disney Cruises are supposed to be a magical experience. However, we came across some not so magical things that we felt really dampened the experience for us and had us questioning whether or not we will cruise with Disney again in the future. I will be following up with the things we loved but let's get the negatives out of the way first. #disney #disneycruiseline #cruiseship #disneywonder #disneyaustralia
