Tom's Honest Review of the Disney Wish - Disney Cruise Line

Key Moments
Editorial Summary
The creator provides a detailed review of the Disney Wish, the first ship in the Triton class for Disney Cruise Line. While acknowledging the vessel is not a bad ship, the reviewer concludes it represents a noticeable downgrade from previous ships like the Dream and Fantasy. The critique focuses on several areas, including nonsensical design changes, such as the placement of the Hyperspace Lounge and the layout of the AquaMouse water coaster. The reviewer notes that the ship feels smaller due to an increased focus on high-end concierge spaces and luxury amenities. Dining experiences are mixed, with the Arendelle restaurant receiving high praise for its food and live music, while the Worlds of Marvel location is described as a significant disappointment in both food quality and entertainment. Furthermore, the creator highlights significant operational issues, suggesting the ship was not fully ready for its inaugural season. Reported problems include unfinished spaces, malfunctioning lighting, and technical glitches with elevator buttons. Despite these criticisms, the reviewer commends the high quality of the onboard artwork, the talent of the cast members, and the overall charm of the Oceaneer's Club.

Creator's Key Takeaways
The Disney Wish is not a bad cruise ship, and you won't go on it and have a bad time, but it is a noticeable downgrade from what existed before it and from a number of aspects.
Arendelle is a highlight. Do not miss. Do not miss Arendelle.
The ship was clearly still not ready to go. Between the Olaf animatronic, um they didn't have any so much of the stuff I get supply chain issues, but that's such a big reason why people came to the ship is for the things that are supposed to be exclusive to the ship that haven't arrived.
The bartenders on the ship are are top-notch.
