    What colors are the porthole decor that have the stateroom number on them on the outside of the cabins for the Magic and Fantasy?

    Ahoy there, Cynthia!

    Welcome to planDisney! It sounds like you’re preparing to make your stateroom door as magical as your voyage—what a fantastic way to show your Disney spirit! My family and I love decorating our doors for every cruise; it’s such a fun way to add a touch of pixie dust and make it easier to spot our room in those long hallways.

    I had to dive into my treasure trove of photos to double-check this one, so thank you for sparking a fun trip down memory lane! Here’s what I found: both ships feature a design with a wood-like background, silver border, and the signature Disney Cruise Line blue in the center. The difference lies in the compass rose border surrounding the porthole:
    • On the Magic, the compass rose has a brighter white tone, which gives it a crisp, classic look.
    • On the Fantasy, the compass rose is a bit more subdued, blending into the elegant and whimsical décor of the ship.

    Now, let’s talk door decorations! Over the years, my family has gotten creative with magnetic decorations, and one of our favorite touches is stringing up battery-powered holiday lights around the frame of the door using magnetic hooks. It adds a festive flair, especially during themed cruises like Halloween on the High Seas or Very Merrytime sailings. Just remember, only magnets are allowed—no tape, adhesives, or anything that could damage the door. Trust me, you don’t want to get hit with that $100 fee for repairs!

    Also, if you’re planning to decorate your door with magnets, consider customizing some with your family’s name, favorite Disney characters, or even cruise dates. It’s such a great conversation starter with your neighbors and adds a personal touch to your vacation.

    Cynthia, I hope your cruise is as magical as the compass rose itself, pointing you toward unforgettable memories and plenty of pixie dust. If you’re decorating for a special occasion or just because, your door will surely be a beacon of Disney magic in the hallway!

    Sea ya real soon with pixie dust and ocean breezes,
