Creator's Key Takeaways

I was just on the Disney Destiny. We're talking December 2025 in case you're watching in the future.

The Destiny was an incredible experience. It was absolutely amazing.

Would I do the Destiny again? Absolutely, I would do the Destiny again.

Creator's Tips & Advice

Pack your patience and check how many ships are in port before arriving at Port Everglades.
Plan accordingly for interactive experiences, as some may require waiting in line or rope dropping.
Don't leave the Pride Lands dining show early, as you might miss part of the performance.
For the Hercules show, consider attending the evening showing instead of the matinee to avoid crowds.
If you want to experience the Dr. Facilier adult interaction, be prepared to wait in line.

🆕New to Cruising? This Creator Addresses:

Overstimulation and busy scheduleTreat the cruise as a trip, not a vacation, and plan accordingly to see and do everything.
Long lines for popular experiencesBe ready to wait or rope drop for sought-after interactions like Dr. Facilier.
Ship focus vs. destination focusIf you prefer relaxing and seeing destinations, consider a different ship for trips to places like Europe or Alaska.
