Creator's Key Takeaways
embarkation day can be the most fun and stressful day of your entire Disney Cruise Line vacation
I highly recommend you check out that video and recommend that you complete the online check-in process before embarkation day
make sure you pack a day bag now as I mentioned earlier you're going to be dropping off the majority of your bags with the porters
when you get on board the ship don't immediately go to Cabanas or to one of the restaurants
