We are going on our first ever cruise on Dec 15. I reserved the GVS with Restrictions and am wondering if there is a way to advise DCL that we are first time cruisers and that we do not know how we will react i.e. sea sickness for when assigning our room?

Question

Answer 1

Hello Carrie,

Thanks so much for sailing by! How exciting that your first Disney Cruise Line vacation is only a few weeks away. Reserving a guaranteed stateroom is a wonderful, economic option that my family has used several times. We have never been disappointed with our stateroom, and, in fact, have always been pleasantly surprised by our wonderful accommodations! I can tell you that in our many cruises (on each of the Disney Cruise Line ships in Europe, the Caribbean, the Bahamas and Alaska) we have never had a problem with motion sickness. You can certainly notate your request for a certain part of the ship (middle, aft or forward) with Disney Cruise Line, however, in my experience, the guaranteed staterooms are assigned just a few weeks, or in some cases, days before the sailing (hence making them a great bargain). I suspect you will be absolutely fine, however, if you or anyone in your family needs medical assistance, there is a 24/7 medical center on the first floor of each Disney Cruise Line ship.

Have a magical first Disney Cruise Line vacation!
