Ahoy, Laura!
Welcome to planDisney! A back-to-back voyage is a double dose of Disney magic, so I love that you are considering this for next September. And celebrating spooky SEAson on the second cruise will make it even more memorable! You'll love seeing how the
Disney Wonder transforms with festive decor for
Halloween on the High Seas!
Laura, you will need to disembark the Wonder, as it must be cleared of all passengers before the next cruise can begin. But Disney Cruise Line does their best to make this a smooth, seamless process. Before the end of your first cruise, you'll receive a letter in your stateroom with all the details on how disembarkation will work. There will be a set meeting place for all back-to-back Guests on the ship; you will all leave the ship together, clear customs, and complete a quick check-in for the second voyage. There may be a short wait time in the terminal, but you'll be the first to embark once the local authorities give the all-clear. No packing required if you are staying in the same stateroom. If you plan to change
staterooms, your host/hostess will move your luggage. The most magical part is a very empty ship when you reembark, so it's the perfect time to snap photos of this beautiful vessel!
I hope this gives you a good idea of what to expect next September, Laura. A back-to-back vacation allows you to check off more of your cruise to-do list or spend more time relaxing, or a little of both! I also love the idea of sailing down the gorgeous
Pacific coast! If you have any other questions about your magical vacation, please let us know, as we are always happy to help!
Happy planning,
Nancy
