Hello, Chris! My pals and I are happy to have you here at planDisney as you prepare for your family's first Disney Cruise! If you are anything like my family, it will be the start of many magical adventures.
It's especially fun to be making memories with a larger travel party, and I'm happy to share that if you link your reservations together, one person can indeed
make reservations for the Royal Gathering for everyone interested in attending. One thing to note is that reservations for the Royal Gathering are available beginning at midnight Eastern time exactly 30 days before your sailing begins. The Royal Gathering is both complimentary and popular, so it's a great idea to snag those reservations as soon as they are available. You'll see a variety of times offered throughout your sailing, so you can choose the time that suits you best.
If you are unable to reserve Royal Gathering tickets, please speak with Crew Members at the Guest Services Desk shortly after boarding the ship to check on availability. They are happy to help when they can!
If you haven't already, I encourage you to download the
Disney Cruise Line Navigator app to start exploring more about your Disney Cruise from home. It's fun to watch that character-filled countdown tick away till your vacation begins. Once you are on board, the app will be your guide to the Daily Activity Schedule, dining menus, and more.
It sounds like you are busy getting your ducks in a row for your adventure next year, and we are more than happy to help if you have additional questions. Sail back to planDisney anytime!
Happy Planning,
Adrianna
