Maranda, welcome to planDisney!
It sounds like you’ve got an exciting adventure planned! Visiting Mickey on land and then setting sail with him is the best of both worlds. If you have yet to receive your luggage tags, don't worry. Additional tags can be picked up from the Bell Services desk at your resort. Look for an email approximately 48 hours before your cruise detailing your
motorcoach departure time and meeting location.
Bell Services will start picking up luggage around 7:30 a.m. Remember to keep your
travel documentation handy in your carry-on bag. Some families wear their swimsuits under their clothes to enjoy an uncrowded pool after lunch. I usually pack ours, along with extra sunscreen, in my day bag and change in the bathroom near the pool.
While you’re in the terminal waiting for your boarding group number to be called, open the
Disney Cruise Line Navigator app. Select "On Board or at the Port" and follow the prompts to link your stateroom. You’ll be able to see the daily activity schedule, allowing you to start mapping out the fun right away. Click the heart icon next to an activity to add it to your favorites list. Fifteen minutes before the activity begins, you’ll receive a notification, which is a lifesaver for keeping track of all the fun things happening on board! It’s like having your own personal cruise director keeping you on schedule.
Wishing you smooth sailing and sunny skies! Thank you for stopping by with your question.
SEAS the adventure!
