Welcome Aboard, Dwight!
I think you've picked the best time ever for your very first cruise! Not only will you get to spend Thanksgiving on the high seas with Captain Mickey, but you'll also be amazed by the incredible Christmas decorations on the Disney Dream. You're in for a real treat!
No cooking, cleaning or decorating for Thanksgiving this year - Disney Cruise Line will handle all the details! You'll enjoy a delicious traditional turkey dinner, and no dishes to wash when you're done. That's reason enough to be thankful! Your favorite Disney Characters will be dressed up in seasonal Thanksgiving costumes, perfect for a Turkey Day photo op. No need to worry about missing any of those holiday football games - you'll be able to catch all the action on several big screens throughout the ship. I can't think of a better place for a Thanksgiving afternoon nap (our family tradition) than in a lounge chair on the pool deck with a nice ocean breeze. Sounds like you've got a lot to be thankful for this year!
Throughout your sailing, you'll also get to experience all the fun of Disney Cruise Line's
Very Merrytime Cruises. The ship will have holiday-themed activities, entertainment and decor, including a life-sized gingerbread house in the lobby!

Deck the Deck Tropical Holiday Party
