Creator's Key Takeaways

Most all ships sail full for Disney. Now, sometimes they are full from day one or very early because it's a popular time or itinerary.

If you want to avoid a crowd and avoid a bottleneck there, don't go when port at your port don't go for the the port arrival time.

If you are not in a hurry to get somewhere after muster after the muster drill, don't go anywhere. Just find somewhere to sit right around there.

Creator's Tips & Advice

✓Wait until around 12:30 PM to arrive at the terminal to avoid boarding day crowds.

✓Avoid the elevators immediately after the muster drill; use the stairs or wait for the crowd to clear.

✓Avoid the onboard shops on the first night of the cruise to bypass the heaviest lines.

✓For character meet and greets, try going later in the evening after the second dinner.
