Creator's Key Takeaways

I haven't been on the Disney Fantasy since 2012 and this is my favorite ship in the entire Disney fleet I'm beyond excited to be getting back on this ship

I completely understand why they changed it back because you're not really learning anything from that they're not standing there making you watch that video uh on how to you know put on your life jacket or anything so I completely understand it sucks but it is what it is safety comes first

I highly recommend taking the stairs if possible oh I'm not built for this I am not Built For This oh dear Jesus oh from deck 4 to deck 12 Oh my days I'm out of breath that's my exercise for the day oh God I'm fat

Creator's Tips & Advice

βœ“Take the stairs to avoid elevator crowds after the muster drill.
βœ“If you are in first seating, sacrifice some dinner time to get a good spot for the tree lighting show.
