    Can people staying at Disney take this shuttle to port canaveral even if they aren’t boarding a Disney cruise?

    Ahoy, Jadene!

    It's almost that magical time! You'll be embarking on a vacation of fun and relaxation with Disney Cruise Line to start the month of April. I know how much you are looking forward to setting sail. 

    Disney Cruise Line's ground transportation to Port Canaveral is available only to Guests with reservations for the day of their sailing. 24 to 48 hours before embarkation, an email with specific instructions is sent to Guests, including the luggage pickup time, meeting time, and location at their Disney Resort Hotel. Once luggage is picked up, it will be transported to the ship and arrive outside the Guest's stateroom door later that afternoon. Guests will need to keep their port arrival form and important cruise documents with them. This includes a valid passport or certified state-issued birth certificate, and government-issued photo ID (Guests 16 and over), and medications in their carry-on luggage. This will make a smooth land-to-sea transition!

    Once you arrive at Port Canaveral, be sure to have the Disney Cruise Line Navigator app downloaded so you can start planning all the magical things you want to do on your sailing. You'll also be able to check your onboard balance, explore deck plans, view your photos, check the weather forecast, and chat with other sailors in your party. I love having all these features at my fingertips.

    Jadene, wishing you smooth seas and gorgeous weather on your cruise this week! Enjoy!
