    How do I check in for my Disney cruise?

    Hey there, hi there, Robin,

    "You're as welcome as can be!" Thanks for visiting us here at planDisney as you get ready for your upcoming Disney cruise vacation.

    If you are a first-time Guest aboard the Disney Cruise Line, online check-in begins 30 before your sail date. If you've sailed with Captain Minnie and Captain Mickey before, your check-in begins between 33 days and 40 days before sailing, depending on your Disney Cruise Line Castaway Club level. You have up until one day before your sail date to complete the online check-in.

    I recommend completing online check-in as early as you can so that you have a better chance of choosing your preferred Port Arrival Time. If you don't have an opportunity to complete online check-in before your sale date, you will be able to complete check-in in person at the cruise ship terminal after 2:00 PM on embarkation day.

    Before you check in online, here is the information and items you will need to gather:

    • Personal information for each member of your party
    • Images of citizenship documentation for each member of your party
    • Photos of each member of your party (separate, front-facing photos for each member of your party from their shoulders up, different from their passport or other ID, with a plain background clearly showing their faces)
    • Details of a friend or family member who could be contacted in an emergency
    • Important details about your travel plans before and after your cruise
    • A credit card for your onboard account

    Here is additional information about check-in and documentation of citizenship.

    To proceed with the online check-in, start from the My Reservations page of the Disney Cruise Line website. Under the "Cruise Details" tab, you should see a section titled "Online Check-In." If you are within your online check-in window as described above, you can click the link there to begin or continue the check-in process.

    I hope that gets you one step closer to the line where the sky meets the sea and your adventure aboard the Disney Cruise Line. Please visit us again here at planDisney if you have any more questions or are looking for tips and recommendations.

    Have a great cruise, Robin!
    ~Tony
