    hi, my twin daughters want their 10th birthday on the Disney cruise, they had their 9th birthday at the magic kingdom. The problem is that i can seem to find a good time and the birthday is 13th of August. Secondly i don't know if they can celebrate.

    Welcome to planDisney, Nkemjideka!

    Your girls sound like my kind of Mouseketeers because I'm all about celebrating my birthday at Disney Destinations, too. While every day spent with Mickey and his pals feels like a holiday, there's something extra special about proudly sporting your birthday pin and receiving well wishes all day long. After such a practically perfect day, it's easy to feel as if the fireworks display is just for you!

    While I've never celebrated a birthday aboard Disney Cruise Line, my husband and I just honored 11 years of marriage aboard the Disney Wish, and I can assure you that Disney's celebratory spirit isn't limited to its theme parks. Be sure to denote the celebration on your reservation and to pick up a couple of birthday buttons from Guest Services once you're on board. It's not guaranteed, but we even received a celebratory dessert and song from our servers one night at dinner just before fireworks at sea

    While I'm not sure of the exact dates you were looking for, if you were hoping to travel on the twins' birthday, I'm currently seeing that the Disney Magic, Disney Wish, and Disney Dream will be sailing on August 13. Whether you're hoping to embark, disembark, or be at sea on the big day, there's an option for you! If your schedule requires a celebration on a different date, you can conveniently search available cruises by departure month on the Disney Cruise Line website

    I'd love to share one more tip before you go, Nkemjideka. Did you know that you can even request to have a beloved Disney character share the big news with your girls? That's right! Disney Cruise Line offers complimentary character calls that can be scheduled at your convenience. What a magical birthday surprise! 

    I hope this information is helpful for you, and that your family is celebrating with Captain Mickey real soon. If any additional questions arise as you continue the planning process, please know that you are always welcome here at planDisney.
