    I've booked our familiy's first ever Disney cruise and I have celiac disease. Disney is amazing with gluten free/celiac-safe options all over WDW, but what is it like on the Wish? What should I expect, and how should I plan to make the best trip?

    Hi, Gretchen!

    Welcome aboard Disney Cruise Line! I am so happy to hear you are already a fan of Walt Disney World, now let's move that magic to the sea!

    I think you will find many similarities on the Disney Wish as you are used to at Walt Disney World when dining in a restaurant. Your server will ask if there are any food allergies or Special Dietary Requests so they can be addressed. And because on a Disney Cruise your dining team stays with you each night for rotational dining, they will be familiar with your restrictions and will assist with recommendations for gluten free options. 

    Prior to your cruise, fill out the Special Servies form online. Information you include on this form will be noted on your reservation so the crew is aware of your food restrictions. On embarkation day, once you board the ship check your Disney Cruise Line Navigator App for the time and location of the Onboard Dining Session which will have more information on dining options during your sailing. 

    Gretchen, if you have additional dining questions while onboard your Disney Cruise, ask to speak to the Head Server of your dining team. They will be happy to assist to make sure you have allergy friendly meals throughout your voyage. 

    Wishing you a magical cruise with Disney Cruise Line and we look forward to seeing you real soon!

Meet the Panelist: Cathy, Ohio

Hi, I'm Cathy from Cleveland. I love to travel, especially in the winter to escape the cold of Ohio! My husband and 2 kids share my enthusiasm for travel, so we enjoy our adventures together whether it is sailing with Disney Cruise Line, running (or cheering!) at runDisney events, taking hula lessons at Aulani, or vacationing at the Walt Disney World which is our home away from home. I am proud to be a part of the planDisney team and cannot wait to share my tips and advice for a magical vacation
