Ahoy there, Art! Your sailing on the
Disney Magic is just around the riverbend, so I’m glad you stopped by planDisney to uncover the answer to your question. If you’ve got shopping on your mind, then I’m your gal!
I’m happy to report that yes, the Disney Magic does offer duty-free shopping onboard. Once onboard, make sure to visit White Caps, where you’ll find duty-free favorites like fine jewelry, perfumes, designer handbags, and premium spirits. Because these items are sold duty-free, you’ll often find some nice savings compared to what you might pay back home.
Of course, that’s not the only shopping opportunity on the ship. You’ll also discover exclusive Disney Cruise Line merchandise and unique souvenirs that can’t be found anywhere else. Between duty-free deals and Disney exclusives, you may find yourself sailing home with more than a few magical treasures, so make sure to leave a little extra room in your suitcase. And even if you don’t, you can always pick up an extra bag at
Mickey’s Mainsail before debarkation day.
As a fellow shopper, I recommend shopping early in the cruise to secure the best selection, and then checking back throughout your sailing for special promotions or limited-time offers. Sometimes there will even be free gifts (like bracelet charms) offered during your cruise. Just pay attention to your
Disney Cruise Line Navigator app and listen to announcements from your Cruise Director throughout the trip to find these gems.
And don’t worry if you’re more of a casual browser, the shopping specialists are super friendly and helpful. In fact, other than our dining room servers and stateroom host, my family and I remember the Cast Members from the shops most fondly (probably because we’re also always in there looking for and asking about new pins they might be willing to trade too!).
I know you’ll have an epic adventure at sea, Art, and don’t hesitate to head back to us here at
planDisney if you think of any other questions before you depart!
Bon voyage,
Sami
