    My family of 5 are cruising (first cruise ever!) to Alaska in June. We have a special little guy who is 10 and has Down syndrome. I was wondering if there are any special accommodations for a child who may need a little extra attention and help?

    Welcome Aboard, Kathy!

    Thank you so much for stopping by the Moms Panel with your question. I'm so thrilled to hear you'll be cruising to Alaska in June - how exciting! That cruise is definitely on my bucket list - I've heard nothing but incredible things about it. What an amazing itinerary for your very first cruise!

    I can assure you that Disney Cruise Line does a wonderful job of making sure each and every guest has the most magical voyage possible! The incredible staff is happy to work with families that require special services during their sailing. No worries - your little man will have the time of his life!

    I encourage you to contact the DCL Special Services Team directly at (407)566-3602 to discuss your son's specific needs. They'll be able to answer your questions regarding the Youth Clubs, provide you with information, and give you peace of mind that your son will have the best experience possible on your vacation. You can also email them at SpecialServices@disneycruise.com. The folks in the Special Services department are some of the nicest people I've dealt with at Disney Cruise Line!
