Key Moments

Editorial Summary

The creators document the first day of a five night Bohemian cruise aboard the Disney Fantasy. The journey begins with a transfer from Orlando to Port Canaveral via GoPort, where they observe other vessels including the Star of the Seas and the upcoming Disney Adventure. The embarkation process at the terminal is described as inefficient due to weather related power outages and long queues, which the creators note felt disorganized compared to their experiences with other cruise lines. Despite these initial frustrations and the lack of a traditional Disney welcome, the family enjoys several aspects of the ship. They attend a Broadway style production of Aladdin in the Walt Disney Theater and participate in the sail away party on the top deck. The creators also review their veranda stateroom, highlighting the storage capacity and themed decor. The day concludes with a meal at Animator's Palette, featuring an interactive encounter with the character Crush, and a quiet moment on their private balcony as the ship departs.

Creator's Key Takeaways

Out of the six cruise we've done, this has been the most inefficient to get on.

I'm a little bit disappointed as the fact we haven't got that there and also now we've got to rush about a lot.

We're here on the ship. The stateateroom's fantastic. Loved seeing the show tonight as well.
