Ahoy, Shirley! Thank you for sailing to planDisney with your question. Welcome!
I've been hearing rumblings that guests are being discouraged from hiding ducks onboard Disney Cruise ships, so I called the
friendly agents at Disney Cruise Line to ask if they had an official policy that I could share with you. I was advised that guests cannot hide things, such as rubber ducks in staterooms or public areas on the ship.
I know that this is a popular thing to do for many cruisers onboard, but it sounds like it's being discouraged and as you said, Crew Members are removing any ducks they spot around the ship. I've got kids in my household with eyes that are trained for the ducks onboard so I guess it's time I inform them to not re-hide any ducks that they might find!
It sounds like now we both have our ducks in a row for future cruises! If you have additional questions, please return to planDisney and ask. My panelist pals and I can help you when you vacation with Disney Cruise Line, Disneyland Resort, Walt Disney World Resort, and Disney Vacation Club. We even have a fun
planDisney podcast you can check out between your Disney trips to feel close to that Disney magic.
Have a wonderful New Year!
