Prepare To Set Sail With Disney Cruise Line

August 9, 2021 By Tony Caselnova

Disney Fantasy Docked at Castaway Cay

 

It’s a great day to say WELCOME BACK DCL!!! It’s so exciting to see the return of cruise ships sailing, even if it isn’t exactly the same as it was in the past. Whether you are a seasoned cruiser or preparing for your first time setting sail, here are few tips you need to know before embarkation.

 

~KNOW BEFORE YOU GO~

For those of us who know and love cruising with Disney Cruise Line, we are ready!! But preparing to board that magical vacation at sea looks different than it used to, and it is absolutely neccessary to be aware of requirements for all ages in you traveling party. We recommend using one of the amazing agents at Destinations To Travel who will help keep you updated on all the changes and requirements prior to boarding. But if you enjoying the planning yourself, be certain to visit the Know Before You Sail page. This will consistently be updated with the most recent testing and vaccination policies, so you won’t be surprised upon your port arrival.

 

~Enjoy Relaxing Family Fun~

Whether you have little ones, teens, tweens or it’s just adult fun for you, take time to explore the pool areas on the ship. In addition to the main pool (which is next to a large screen which runs Disney favorite movies all day and into the evening), most ships have their own fun slide or experience! Sailing on the Dream or Fantasy? Check out the AquaDuck Water Coaster. Or if you’re on the Disney Magic, be sure to try the AquaDunk – a 3 story body slide! The Disney Wish (setting sail in 2022) will have the first water attraction at sea called the AquaMouse!

 

~Stay Flexible~

Although rare, be prepared for the possibility of port changes

Even the best laid plans can hit rocky waters. You’ll want to be prepared for the possibility of Port Of Call Changes. Though very rare, occasionally rough seas, ship issues, or even sudden changes in the country where your port of call is located, could cause a last minute change in your original itinerary. BUT – be willing to go with the flow. Many times the very thing we were looking for comes when we weren’t expecting it. Rest assured that no matter where your cruise takes you it will be amazing! You’re on vacation after all, so relax and let the waves take you away.

 

~Book Early~

So, you’re ready to experience the relaxation, beautiful Ports of Call, the fun and the food. What next? BOOK EARLY! Prices will never be lower than when booking opens for any itinerary! Whether you want to sail the Carribbean, or see the stunning sites of Alaska, Disney Cruise Line is ready to welcome you and your family aboard.
