Hello, Kathy! Thanks so much for sailing to us with your question. Welcome aboard planDisney!
I'm happy to share with you that staterooms are generally available for guests to enter by 1:30 PM on embarkation day, so with your arrival time, you can expect to board the ship and head straight to your stateroom to drop off your bags. You can comfortably explore the ship, grab a bite to eat, and settle in for the voyage ahead. It's good to note that any luggage that you don't carry on to the ship will be delivered outside your stateroom later in the day, sometimes several hours after boarding. Please keep anything you'll need with you in your carry-on luggage, such as medications, a swimsuit, and those especially important
travel documents that you'll need to present at the port when you check in.
As your adventure is about to begin, please make sure you have the latest version of the
Disney Cruise Line Navigator app downloaded to your smartphone. You'll use the app throughout your sailing to view the Daily Activity Schedule, your nightly restaurant, and more. My favorite feature of the app is the opportunity to book the
Onboard Offer. The Onboard Offer allows you to lock in a future cruise at a discount. If you'll want to say "See ya real soon" to Mickey and Minnie, be sure to check out the Onboard Offer while you are on the ship.
Bon Voyage!
