Creator's Key Takeaways

Disney automatically puts you in near the front of the line. As far as I know, it's always boarding group four.

We forgot, well, not that we forgot. I didn't even know that we should check the hours for the pool times.

Always make sure before you head down, you have all of the Key to the World cards for everyone in your party.

Creator's Tips & Advice

Don't stress about staying up till midnight for check-in if taking Disney transportation.
Check pool hours before planning your pool time.
Bring socks for the Incredibles course on Wish class ships.
Bring your own kid-friendly snacks from home.
Make sure you have all Key to the World cards for everyone in your party.
Consider buying a cup holder for soft serve ice cream.
