Creator's Key Takeaways

I'm not going to talk specific numbers today but I'll give you an idea of what some things cost just because I think it's important to give you an idea

when we started cruising with Disney in 2010 I was a kid and so I didn't do any of the vacation planning my mom did most of it

it's really important to know how much you're planning to spend on the ship and just be reasonable

YouTube Video Description↓

If you're worried about what you'll end up spending onboard your Disney cruise, this video is for you. You may not spend anything on your cruise, and that's great! I admire you. You may be like me and want to have an idea of what you'll end up spending onboard so it's not a surprise when you get home. This video covers all of the areas you may spend money onboard. Your cruise fare includes your room, all food (except for adult dining experiences, prepackaged foods, and popcorn), soda, drip coffee, milk and juice are included, and a whole lot of fun activities every day. Everything you absolutely NEED on your cruise is included. The things you WANT are going to cost extra. How you choose to vacation is up to you; I'm just here to inform you before you get there.
