    We are leaving on a 5-night cruise on the Disney Fantasy on September 11,2026. Is there a way to know which nights are pirate and halloween nights so I don't schedule Palo on those nights?

    Ahoy, Harry, and welcome to planDisney! You picked such a fun itinerary – you'll visit three amazing ports of call in the Bahamas, and there will be so much themed fun aboard the ship. Let's dive into the details of your Halloween on the High Seas adventure!

    While entertainment schedules are subject to change, it looks like your September 2026 cruise on the Disney Fantasy will offer three themed nights:

    Dressing up for these nights is optional, but it definitely adds to the fun. Pack a Halloween costume, a pirate outfit, and something a little fancy! Also, keep in mind that formal or semi-formal attire is recommended at Palo. A polished, dress-casual look is allowed, too.

    Now that you have an idea of the schedule, it's time to think about when to book that Palo reservation. The Main Dining rotations are subject to change, but at the moment, it looks like Day 1 and Day 5 will have the same restaurant assignment. So, if you were to book Palo on either of those nights, you'll still be able to experience each of the Main Dining locations once. As you may know, Palo is an extremely popular restaurant, and many Guests will be trying to secure reservations. Try to book it as soon as your window opens.

    And Harry, if you don't have it already, make sure to download the Disney Cruise Line Navigator app. Once you board the ship and connect to Wi-Fi, you'll be able to see the most updated details for your sailing, including the dining rotations, onboard activities, and more. Keep an eye on the schedule for the Pumpkin Tree show and all the Halloween-themed Character meet-and-greets!

    Harry, I hope you have a fantastic time aboard the Disney Fantasy this fall. If you think of any other questions between now and embarkation day, please reach out. We're always happy to help here at planDisney!

    Smooth sailing ahead,
    Kriss
