Ahoy there, Windy! Thanks for sailing by planDisney.
It sounds like there is a very special teen who is about ready to have an absolutely magical birthday onboard! We've yet to take a cruise on my birthday, but it's definitely a bucket list item. There are many special ways to
celebrate onboard, so let's dive right in!
First thing is to make sure the stateroom is as magical as possible. Disney Cruise Line has a bunch of fun decor options for your stateroom. I love the "
Celebrate Today" package because it includes all your favorite Disney pals in a classic birthday package. You also have the option to deliver sweet treats to your room or dinner, and there are other
gifts to enhance the pixie-dusted decor. Set this up for your arrival day so you can start the celebratory cruise right!
Depending on where you sail, consider a
special excursion for the celebrant—maybe
sledding with the Iditarod dogs in Alaska or a
zip line adventure in Puerto Rico. When you're a teenager, I think the number one thing you want is to feel special, so an
exciting "older" excursion might do the trick!
Windy, let your stateroom attendant know that someone is celebrating a birthday by heading online to "My Reservations." Once there, click on "Special Requests" and then "Celebrations." You will have the option to select a birthday. Your steward will make sure to create magical moments throughout the cruise. Also, alert your dining crew that you have someone to celebrate - you'll get the perfect (slightly embarrassing) moment for your teen at dinner!
If you have any other questions, feel free to float back by. I wish you a magical birthday sail!
