Ahoy, Mary!
Thank you so much for cruising by the Moms Panel with your question. What an awesome way to celebrate a birthday - with a Disney Cruise! You can rest assured he will have the most magical birthday yet when he celebrates with Captain Mickey and his crew!
Disney Cruise Line does an amazing job of making sure that each and every guest has the best vacation possible. The highly trained staff, especially the Youth Counselors in the
Youth Clubs, are accustomed to working with all types of cruisers, young and old. The daily schedule will be full of fun, engaging activities for all ages - I promise there will be plenty to keep your nephew busy from morning til night! The only problem we usually have is not being able to do it all.
If you're concerned about your nephew's specific needs, you can always contact the DCL Special Services Team with any questions you might have. They're there to provide you with information, and give you peace of mind that he will have a wonderful experience, and feel right at home when in the care of the Youth Counselors. You can reach them by calling (407)566-3602, or by emailing them at SpecialServices@disneycruise.com
Disney Cruise Line's Special Services Team is made up of some of the nicest, most helpful people you'll ever come across. Their goal is to take away any worries and concerns you have before setting sail.
I hope this helps! Please let us know if you have any more questions as you plan your Disney Cruise.
Have a magical day! - Diane W.
