Welcome aboard the Disney Parks Moms Panel, Ashley!
It brings me so much joy to hear you will be spending time onboard my favorite ship, the
Disney Magic, in just a few short DAYS! You must be bursting with excitement now that your high seas adventure is on the horizon. I hope your pirates-in-training are ready to hunt down all of the
treasure included when you sail with Captain Mickey!
For my pirates, the
youth clubs mark the spot where they want to spend their entire vacation. They act like we are asking them to walk the plank when we come pick them up for dinner! I hope your young sailors enjoy these spaces as much as mine do.
Typically the youth clubs host open house time on embarkation day while guests are boarding the ship. In my experience, pirates can begin to check in around 5:00 PM on your first day aboard, marking these clubs open for business! Throughout your cruise, youth club hours vary, but you will always find them open late. It is not uncommon for my son to stay in the clubs with his friends until 11:00 PM or even midnight!
The best map to all of your adventures onboard, including time in the youth clubs, is your
Disney Cruise Line Navigator App. Not only can you find the club hours but also the amazing activities that keep my pirates captive like Super Sloppy Science and Get the Hook!
Raise the Jolly Roger and cruise back to the Disney Parks Moms Panel if you have any additional questions for us to attack before you set sail!
"Sea" ya real soon! Angie
