    I’m sailing concierge for the first time on Disney Destiny! I want to make sure we take advantage of everything concierge offers. Tell me everything I can ask for when I make my requests and what extras are offered onboard.

    Ahoy there, Michelle!

    I’m thrilled to hear you’ll be sailing aboard the brand-new Disney Destiny, and in concierge, no less—talk about charting a course for luxury and pixie-dusted perfection! My family and I are sailing on the Destiny next May, and I’m extra excited because we’re doing a back-to-back cruise. There’s so much anticipation surrounding the ship’s Heroes and Villains theme, and I can’t wait to see how it compares to her sister ships, the Disney Wish and Disney Treasure!

    Let’s dive into everything concierge to make your sailing as enchanting as possible.

    First, one of the best perks is early access to activities and dining reservations. Concierge Guests get to book these 130 days before sailing. This gives you a head start on snagging those must-have reservations like dining at Palo Steakhouse, Beverage Tasting Seminars, and, of course, the ever-elusive cabanas at Castaway Cay or Lookout Cay. Be on the lookout for an email from the Shoreside Concierge Associate team and be ready to send in your requests right at midnight (Eastern time) on the day your booking window opens!

    When you’re ready to make your pre-arrival requests, here are some suggestions:
    1. Special Room Setup: Let concierge know if you’re celebrating something special—birthdays, anniversaries, or even a first cruise! They can arrange for magical in-room surprises.
    2. Snack and Beverage Requests: Ask for your stateroom to be stocked with your favorite snacks, bottled water, or sodas.
    3. Dining Preferences: If you have specific table requests for rotational dining, such as a private table or a preferred seating time, concierge can help with that, too.
    4. Activities: If you have any must-do Port Adventures or onboard activities, be sure to include these in your request.

    Onboard, the concierge perks just keep sailing in. Here’s what you can look forward to:
    - Concierge Lounge: This private oasis offers complimentary beverages, snacks, and desserts throughout the day. In the evenings, you can also enjoy complimentary alcoholic beverages.
    - Dedicated Concierge Team: They’re like fairy godparents at sea! Whether you need to adjust a reservation, book an excursion, or inquire about onboard activities, they’re always ready to assist.
    - Private Sun Deck: Concierge Guests have access to an exclusive sun deck. It’s the perfect spot for a peaceful retreat.
    - Priority Seating for Shows: No need to wait in any long lines to find the best seat for the evening show. Your Concierge Team will escort you in prior to the main doors opening, and you can even enjoy some complimentary popcorn.
    - Priority Boarding and Debarkation: You’ll enjoy smooth sailing through the terminal with expedited check-in and boarding. On debarkation day, you’ll have the option to enjoy a leisurely breakfast before being escorted off the ship.

    With a focus on epic storytelling through Heroes and Villains, I can only imagine the immersive touches we’ll encounter in the dining experiences (like Pride Lands: Feast of the Lion King!), entertainment, and stateroom design. While I’m counting down the days to May, I’ll also be keeping an eye on any sneak peeks Disney releases.

    Wishing you a voyage as legendary as a hero’s journey and as thrilling as a villain’s plot twist!

    Sea ya real soon with pixie dust and ocean breezes,
    Dustin
