Welcome aboard, Lorna!
My whole family got to set sail with
Disney Cruise Line to celebrate my younger brother's college graduation many years ago. It was such a special cruise, and since then we've enjoyed many, many more Disney cruises! Your daughter is so fortunate that this is your gift to her. I can't think of a more magical way to celebrate this big graduation than setting sail with Captain Mickey and his crew.
There are certain venues and experiences onboard the ships that are reserved
exclusively for those 18 and up, including
Palo and
Remy dining. So, unfortunately, you won't be able to make reservations including your 17 year-old daughter there. However, the good news is that since she is not yet 18, she can still take part in all of the teen fun in
Vibe, which is the Youth Club onboard for guests ages 14 - 17. She is just young enough to be able to meet new friends her age at Vibe, participate in the activities, outings, and events offered there, and hang out in one really cool space created just for her age group! Believe me, it is THE place to be for teens her age, and the amazing counselors there really know how to get the kids excited and involved in all the fun! A few months older and she would have missed out on this special space and all the experiences the teens enjoy there, so she's really fortunate!
Congratulations to your daughter on this milestone achievement, Lorna, and I hope you enjoy the most magical adventures this summer when you set sail with Disney!
