    We set sail on the 15 night cruise leaving out of Sydney heading to Honolulu next week and have never been on a cruise longer than 7 nights. Are there shows every night? How does dinner rotation work? And do you get Disney Plus in the room?

    Hi there, Rhandi,

    Welcome back to planDisney! As your sailing inches closer, I know you must be thinking about all the things you can expect on your 15-night South Pacific sailing from Sydney to Honolulu. My longest vacation with Captain Mickey was 10 nights, and throughout the sailing, I felt the magic as Disney sprinkles some extra pixie dust on longer cruises. 

    Rhandi, there should be a show in the Walt Disney Theatre each night of your cruise, starting on Day 2. These will be a mix of the Broadway-style shows, variety entertainers, and first-run movies. In the past, these extended cruises have featured special performances from the mainstage singers and dancers, as well as a crew talent show. It will be a fun surprise to see what lineup the entertainment staff has planned for your sailing when you check the Disney Cruise Line Navigator app in the cruise terminal. 

    As for your dining rotation, you'll rotate through Triton's, Tiana's Place, and Animator's Palate just as you would on a shorter cruise. Although always subject to change, one formal night (Day 2), one Pirate Night (Day 7), and one semi-formal night (Day 10) are planned, with the rest of the nights being cruise casual. With so many nights to keep up with, you'll be able to check in with the Disney Cruise Line Navigator app for your dining time, dining location, table number, attire suggestion, and dining menus.

    As for Disney+, it is not available on the stateroom TVs, but if you'd like to stream it, you can purchase the WiFi package that offers Internet + Streaming. But with that said, the stateroom TVs offer many on-demand options, including your favorite Disney, Pixar, and Marvel films. You'll also be able to watch tv shows, recordings of the ship's Broadway-style shows, and live TV when available. I think you'll find it to be an extensive library of titles for your viewing pleasure! 

    Thank you again for sending in your questions to planDisney. I hope you have the most magical experience as you sail across the beautiful South Pacific on the Disney Wonder.
