Creator's Key Takeaways
The food is really fantastic. On board the Disney Magic, there's this one specialty restaurant and it's called Pao.
The app is one of the best, if not the best. It just works and does everything from before you even check in and get on the ship.
You do feel less nickel and dimed on these cruises than other cruise ships.
We've been so blessed to be back on Disney. It's one of our favorite cruise lines and it hasn't disappointed.
