Creator's Key Takeaways

I have been on 19 cruises with Disney and I have four kids and I have created a packing list for myself that I have used over the past many, many cruises

I love to have our kids in matching swimsuits because it makes my life easier

This thing has been a game changer. It's so tiny, so compact

Creator's Tips & Advice

Pack only three pairs of shoes for adults: waterproof sneakers, strapped sandals, and compact dress shoes
Bring two swimsuits per person to have a dry option
Use matching bright-colored rash guards for kids to easily spot them in crowds
Pack prescriptions in original packaging with labels for easy boarding
Bring a portable nebulizer if you have a child with respiratory needs
