Welcome aboard, Sherri! My family and I are setting sail on the Dream this month too, and if you're like us, I bet you are getting really excited! We can't wait to escape the dropping temperatures here in the Midwest and set sail for warmer waters!
Anna and Elsa have been making their rounds on a few of Disney's ships, but are not currently on the Disney Dream. However, that is always subject to change, so we can certainly keep our fingers crossed! I know my daughter would love to meet up with them! Once you are onboard, you'll have a Personal Navigator delivered to your stateroom each day. This lists the schedule of events and activities throughout the ship. There is an entire line dedicated to character meet and greets, so I promise you there will be plenty of opportunities to meet up and get photos with lots of your kids' favorite Disney friends!
Have you completed your
online check-in yet? If not, be sure to get started on that and finish up by printing out your boarding documents to sign and bring to the port with you. During your online check-in, there will be a spot to register your children for the Oceaneer Club and Lab. On that page, you'll also set a password for pick up and note who is authorized to pick up the children. If your older son is age 13 or older, you can certainly set him up as one of the authorized pick up folks, along with yourself.
I hope you have an absolutely magical cruise with Captain Mickey as you enjoy one of the first
Very Merrytime Cruises of the season, Sherri!
