Ahoy, Emily, and thanks for visiting us again at planDisney with your question!
Boarding the shuttle to go to the port always signifies the start of our family’s cruise vacation. If you are not using a Disney Cruise Line transfer, you will choose your arrival time during
Online Check-In. If for some reason you arrive after that time slot, it won’t be a problem; you are more than welcome to come after your port arrival time and board at your convenience.
Once onboard, I suggest heading up to either
Marceline Market or Mickey’s Smokestack BBQ for lunch. You’ll be close to the pool deck, so in addition to packing important necessities like medication and
travel documents in a carry-on bag, I would pack a swimsuit, sunscreen, and sunglasses so your fun can begin even before you set sail.
Speaking of fun, it looks like
your cruise will start with a few days at sea to enjoy all the amenities of the
Disney Treasure and end with a day at
Castaway Cay. Don’t forget to download the
Disney Cruise Line Navigator app before you leave so you have all the activities, specials, and showtimes in the palm of your hand.
I hope this helps prepare you to have the Best Day Ever! If you think of any other vacations before your trip, don’t hesitate to head back to us here at
planDisney.
Sea ya real soon,
Sami
