    We keel saying we want to do a cruise but like Disney resorts send us, a packet of information, do you also provide that to help us navigate the planning

    Ahoy, Krista! Welcome to planDisney and the first step towards your very own Disney Cruise Line adventure! If you already love spending time at the Disney Parks and Resorts, then setting sail where magic meets the sea is perfect for your next vacation or celebration. A Disney cruise gives you the opportunity to explore new destinations around the world, while still greeting your favorite characters, eating Mickey waffles, and enjoying the pixie dust that you just can’t find anywhere else.

    In order to provide guests with the most up-to-date information, Disney Cruise Line no longer offers written materials. But I promise that there is no need to panic because you will find plenty of information on the Disney Cruise Line website and you can also always count on your friends here at planDisney to answer any specific questions that may come up during the planning process.

    If you are just starting to consider sailing aboard Disney Cruise Line, then I suggest first exploring the sections of the website called “Why Cruise with Disney” and “What’s Included.” You will find that there really is something for everyone onboard and you can read about the unique offerings for families, adults, kids, and even the teens and tweens. Then you can learn about “The Disney Difference” and how Disney Cruise Line allows you to immerse yourself in the legendary storytelling that only Disney can create. Whether you are capturing photos with Captains Mickey and Minnie, enjoying the incredible lineup of Broadway-caliber stage productions in the Walt Disney Theatre, or watching one of the latest first-run features from Pixar, Star Wars, or Marvel, it will definitely be a vacation to remember. Plus, on select sailings, you can party like a pirate on Pirate Night and see the Disney Cruise Line exclusive fireworks at sea light up the night sky.

    I recommend narrowing down your Disney Cruise Line plans by figuring out what your top priorities are for your sailing. Would you prefer to set sail from a particular departure port? Are you looking to explore a particular ship? Is a visit to Disney Castaway Cay or Disney Lookout Cay at Lighthouse Point a must-do? Everyone cruises differently, so deciding which options are most important to you and your sailing party will help you find the perfect itinerary to book.

    Finally, be sure to sign up for the Disney Cruise Line email updates, so that you can receive the latest news right in your inbox. The emails will let you know about special offers, itinerary announcements, and building updates as the fleet continues to expand.

    I hope that helps point you in the right direction as you start planning your Disney Cruise. As you get your sea legs a bit and figure out exactly what you are looking for, then you can always sail back over to planDisney with more questions. We really are always here to help. Happy future sailing!
