Creator's Key Takeaways
Never is a strong word, but I'm using it because I'm never doing these things again before or during my next Disney cruise.
Please beware of roaming charges on your phone. The Wi-Fi on board the Disney cruise ships is not your typical Wi-Fi.
You can get endless pog refills on your Disney cruise.
The best way to book a Disney cruise and know you're getting the best deal is to use a travel agent who specializes in booking Disney vacations.
