Hi Sally! Thanks for cruising back to us again with more questions as you head out for adventure aboard the Disney Dream. It's time for the fun to begin!
I just love the feeling of boarding a Disney Cruise! There is nothing like stepping onto the ship and into your vacation. You can say goodbye to work and chores, and leave any stress behind. Now it's time to say hello to fun and relaxation! Once your staterooms are ready to enter (typically around 1:30 P.M.), you'll find your Key To The World Card in a sealed envelope outside your stateroom.
I do not recommend punching a hole in or altering your Key To The World card in any way. Instead, I'd look to see if they have any lanyards with plastic sleeves for sale on the ship. Shops will open after you depart from the port. You can view shop hours within the
Disney Cruise Line Navigator app once you are onboard. If you'd like an extra convenient way to unlock your stateroom and make purchases around the ship, consider purchasing a
DisneyBand+ onboard. This magical wristband makes your life easier and I prefer it over wearing a lanyard.
Sally, it's been a pleasure assisting you as you prepare for your cruise. Have an incredible time!
Bon Voyage!
