Hi there, Mary!
Ahoy and welcome to the Disney Parks Moms Panel! I am so excited to hEAR you have a Disney Cruise Line vacation booked for later this year! As a fellow Texan, I am always excited when Disney Cruise Line returns back to
Galveston for some incredible voyages each year!
Planning your vacation is always so much fun, but the real magic begins when you step onboard, so I understand your eagerness about getting that adventure started! When you complete your
Online Check-In (75-days ahead of voyage for first-time Guests), you will select a Port Arrival Time for check-in and registration. Upon arriving at the port on embarkation day, you will receive a boarding group number. After embarkation starts (typically around 11:30AM), you will wait until your boarding group number is called and then at that time you can board the beautiful Disney Wonder for your adventure to begin! Unfortunately, you are not assigned your boarding group until you arrive at the port, so I cannot say exactly what time you will be able to get onboard since that is dependent upon your group number.
You are going to have just the best time on your
Very Merrytime adventure with Captain Mickey! All Disney Cruise Line vacations are filled with fun and excitement, but the added holiday-themed activities and decorations make it that much more exciting and a WONDERful way to kick off the holiday season!
As you continue planning and preparing for your vacation, please come back with any other questions you may have! Wishing you a magical and memorable voyage!
Happy Sailing!
