Hi Jenn,
Welcome back to planDisney! How exciting, your fabulous
Disney Cruise Line vacation is just around the riverbend! My family sailed aboard the beautiful Disney Dream last spring, and I know you’re going to have a wonderful vacation. I am a super-planner and I completely understand wanting to know the full itinerary to plan every detail of your cruise in advance. There’s so much to see and do, you want to make time for everything.
I spoke with a friendly Crew Member today on your behalf, and he shared that
Pirate Night will be on Thursday, March 30 (the day you’re in Cozumel, Mexico) for your sailing. This beloved Disney Cruise Line tradition includes a themed meal, deck party and show, and special fireworks at sea! Many choose to be in costume but please know that themed attire is not required to have a good time (and you won’t have to walk the plank if you don’t dress up).
Disney also confirmed for me that they don’t have the specific line-up of the
Broadway style shows to share with us as there are many factors that can impact this schedule up until your sail date. Once you get onboard, be sure to check your
Disney Cruise Line Navigator app which will have the full details of all activities and evening showtimes listed for the full cruise.
Please know that each show is performed twice nightly to allow Guests time for their dinner at two seating times. If you make
adult dining reservations or other plans one night, you can attend whichever showtime suits your schedule best. I confess my family doesn’t see all the shows onboard on each of our cruises. We like to take at least one evening to enjoy the pools or
AquaDuck at night, watch a movie on deck with snacks, and just have a less structured day. I hope seeing the full schedule once onboard will help you plan out the rest of your cruise days to align with your family’s priorities, Jen.
I find there is so much to do onboard that we make a list of must-dos but try to leave room in our schedule for some surprises based on our mood, weather, and itinerary. (Yes, I plan out my “spontaneous time” in my vacations!)
Please sail by with any further questions as you get ready for this magical vacation.
Bon voyage,
Amy
