Hello there, Kathryn! Welcome to planDisney where my pals and I are here and happy to help with your planning needs. From Walt Disney World Resort to Disneyland Resort, Disney Vacation Club, and of course, the Disney Cruise Line ... we are fellow guests who have "been there and done that" and want to share our insights. Thank you for sailing our way!
It looks like you are just days away from a voyage on the
Disney Fantasy! I'm so excited for you to be welcomed aboard my favorite ship. Make sure that you check out the
Midship Detective Agency for a chance to interact with the artwork throughout the ship while solving a mystery. It's a great way to have fun while exploring the ship.
Now, it sounds like you will be
traveling with little ones in your sailing crew. Captains Minnie and Mickey are always looking out for ways to spoil the young sailors on the Disney Cruise Line. At this time, "it's a small world" nursery! is temporarily unavailable. The Disney Cruise Line is evaluating its procedures as it navigates through the current "waters" so to speak. They are striving to keep all Crew Members and Guests healthy and safe. I also know they are striving to deliver the best cruising experience to their esteemed Guests. I apologize that the nursery is not available at this time and I am hopeful that it will again return in the near future.
In the meantime, be sure to take advantage of the amenities offered for
families traveling with young children. Portable cribs, diaper disposal units, and bottle warmers are available for use in your stateroom. Simply speak with Guest Services or your Stateroom Host to request these items. While dining in the main dining rooms, your server will be happy to offer pureed foods and a high chair to make mealtimes a breeze.
During your voyage, be sure to visit
Nemo's Reef to splash and play. While visiting Castaway Cay, look for the Spring-a-Leak water play area not far from the Bicycle Rental area. My toddlers would have happily played there all day! When you need some refreshment, you can grab a soft-serve ice cream cone (or request it in a cup) to cool off. My favorite way to enjoy this treat? Sandwiched between two cookies from the buffet on
Castaway Cay.
I wish you a wonderful voyage full of happy moments and many memories. Please visit us again at planDisney if you have any future questions. We would love to help!
Bon Voyage,
Adrianna
