Ahoy, Mark, and welcome back to planDisney!
Thank you for reaching out again about your upcoming voyage in just a few days. I'm sure the
packing is well underway, and you're dreaming of all the special moments you are about to create with your family on your Disney Cruise Line vacation. As a mom of two whose kids have grown up cruising, I've loved being able to check in with them throughout the day using the
Disney Cruise Line Navigator app. The ships are floating destinations, so having an app to keep track of everyone's plans will be very helpful next week.
Mark, I have good news: if your old phone runs on Android or Apple iOS and can
download the app, your grandson should be good to go. Before you leave for the cruise, I recommend
downloading the Disney Cruise Line Navigator app using your home Wi-Fi network. Once you arrive at the port or board the ship, you can connect your phone to the ship's Wi-Fi network, DCL-Guest. There is no charge to use the app while on your cruise. Each member of your crew can share their unique chat ID to send messages throughout your vacation. It's an easy way to stay connected while at sea.
I know the final countdown is on, Mark. We hope our answers have been helpful as you prepare for the most magical vacation on the high seas. The Cast & Crew can't wait to welcome you and help you make unforgettable memories with your family. Please let us know if you think of anything else as you check off items on your pre-cruise list.
Safe travels to your crew, Mark, and have a magical time with Mickey!
