Hi Lisa, welcome to planDisney! I’m excited to help you plan your vacation with Captain Mickey.
You’ll have the best adventure aboard the beautiful Disney Wish! From the moment you step aboard, you’ll be treated like royalty, surrounded by the magic of Cinderella and her friends. Keep your camera handy; you never know who might make a special appearance in the Grand Hall. And be sure to visit at 10 p.m. or midnight for a delightful surprise!
It looks like you have your heart set on a special souvenir. I also like to visit the shops on the first night. Just so you know, the onboard shops must remain closed while the ship is docked. Typically, they open at 6:00 p.m. on the first night and close at 11:00 p.m. However, these hours are subject to change in the event of any delays departing Port Canaveral.
You're in for a treasure trove of goodies at
Mickey's Main Sail! Discover Disney Cruise Line merchandise, toys, pirate costumes,
DisneyBand+, and more. For a touch of elegance, don't miss the jewelry and handbags at
Treasures Untold, where you might stumble upon exclusive Disney Wish collectibles. I recently bought a Dooney and Bourke Wish tote, which I absolutely love!
Once you hop on board, check out the
Disney Cruise Line Navigator app for all the fun details! You'll find store hours, your dining rotation, table number, and the daily activity schedule all in one place. If you've got a thrill-seeker in the family, toss a swimsuit into your carry-on and head straight to
AquaMouse after lunch. Trust me, the lines are usually shorter on embarkation day and in the morning.
I hope this information helps as you prepare for your cruise. If you have any other questions, please see us again. We are happy to share our best Disney Cruise Line tips with you!
SEAS the adventure!
