Creator's Key Takeaways

I thought maybe they'd lined some Disney characters up as you entered the boat. And it was a nice touch what they did when you came in. But I was kind of expecting that.

I've never been on a cruise ship, let alone a Disney cruise.

The upsell is pretty heavy already before we've got on the ship.

Every single staff member we came across was happy. They were polite. They were so ultra friendly.

Creator's Tips & Advice

Ask staff for specific food items if you can't find them at the buffet
Book specific dining times to align with show schedules
Bring extra budget for tips, drinks, and onboard activities
Check the app for character appearance times
Arrive early for shows to get better seating
