Ahoy Taylor,
Thank you so much for visiting planDisney with your question. The
Disney Dream is the first ship that I sailed on with
Disney Cruise Line, so it holds a special place in my heart. I am glad that you are going to get to experience this magical ship!
DisneyBand+ provides a new way for guests to interact with certain features of the ship on a Disney Cruise Line sailing. For example, DisneyBand+ can be used to open stateroom doors and purchase merchandise onboard. Plus, DisneyBand+ comes in many lovely designs! Also, on ships that are using DisneyBand+, guests can use a
MagicBand+ from Walt Disney World or Disneyland as a DisneyBand+.
Currently, DisneyBand+ is in use on the
Disney Wish and the
Disney Fantasy. DisneyBand+ will start to be used on the
Disney Magic for sailings later this fall. Disney Cruise Line has not announced plans for DisneyBand+ on the other ships yet; however, I suggest that you check back to the DisneyBand+ page that I linked earlier to look for further announcements about if and when DisneyBand+ might be introduced on the other ships, including the Disney Dream.
For now, you will be issued a
Key to the World Card on the Disney Dream for use in activities such as accessing your stateroom and making merchandise purchases.
Taylor, I hope that this information is helpful for you! Please feel free to sail on back to planDisney if you have any further questions.
