Welcome aboard, Erin -
I am so excited to hear that you will be setting sail with Captain Mickey and his crew for the very first time! Just a few more days - and your most magical cruise will whisk you on your way to explore the beauty and splendor of Alaska. You and your family will have an awesome experience and only Disney knows how to add that extra pixie dust to make it extra special.
The Personal Navigators are available onboard and are still in printed format. The Navigator app for smart phones has not been released on the Disney Wonder, though the app is currently working on the 3 other ships. So, I'm sure it won't be long and the Disney Wonder will have this extra tool available for guests too. Personal Navigators can be picked up at the Guest Services desk at anytime, and it will also be delivered to your stateroom each night. You can review all the following days' activities and schedules, so that you can plan your day accordingly. You might want to bring a highlighter, since it makes it easy to mark certain activities that you and your family members want to participate in. The list of movies and showtimes at the Buena Vista Theater can change at anytime, and you'll get the confirmed schedules onboard. As of this past couple of weeks, they were showing Frozen, Captain America: The Winter Soldier, Million Dollar Arm, and of course, Maleficent.
The Disney
Pixar Pals Party is a signature party on the Alaskan Cruises. It's an awesome party for everyone and you're sure to sing along with everyone. My fellow Disney Mom, Nancy, shows a
video and sneak peak on what you can expect on your cruise too.
Wishing you a memorable Disney Cruise voyage, Erin!
Bon voyage!
