Creator's Key Takeaways

thinking that Disney Cruises are just for families yes which is honestly one of the biggest things that we hear when we talk to other adults who don't have kids or won't be traveling with kids is I what do we do

if you don't complete that online check-in beforehand it just makes it a much longer process to get on the ship

we highly recommend getting separate travel insurance Disney insurance only covers the cruise and for us we have flights we have hotels we have the cruise itself

if you aren't able to book something you were really looking forward to example Royal Gathering we in our last video referenced that you want to make sure that you join that Facebook group

Creator's Tips & Advice

Fly in at least 24 hours before your cruise embarks
Download the Disney Cruise Line navigator app before the cruise
Check your documentation two months before your cruise
Complete online check-in and have your Port arrival form ready
Get separate travel insurance instead of just Disney's
Pre-book activities and events based on your Castaway club status
