27 Disney SECRETS! | Disney Cruise Line Pro Tips

Okay for someone who's on her 4 th DCL cruise You totally blew my mind with the free internet on embarkation day. I had no idea so taking advantage of this next time

[@disneeds]

Haha I hope it’s useful!

[@brianpettit8951]

I cruise solo so once I snagged the Palo brunch I posted in the facebook group that if anyone wanted to join me we could meet at Palo the first night to add them to my reservation. Something to consider if you don't mind dining with people you don't know and there are only one or two of you it is a nice gesture to make that offer for others to join you.

[@disneeds]

What a great idea. Thanks for sharing!

10:25 Pro Tip: Some Limited Edition Merchandise won’t be found in the shops. For example, the DCL 25th Anniversary Floating Speaker could only be purchased by going to Guest Services and then they would verify they had some in stock and then it would be delivered to your stateroom. Make sure you do your merch research before going aboard. *I’ve heard that the regular floating speakers (not 25th anniversary) can be purchased on the onboard gift section of the website before setting sail for $120.

Good tips as always. Note: There is no longer an on-board Future Cruise Desk so the placeholders are reserved/purchased in the app, any time on your cruise.

[@disneeds]

Thanks for the info!

I didn't know about the birthday credit for the spa! Yay for me!

[@disneeds]

1st time cruiser…..make sure you get a placeholder for your next cruise….take advantage of the discount.

That’s exciting! I hope you have a fabulous time!

115 days out

[@rickyragazzo2610]

5:22 except when they say the AquaMouse says it will open at 12:00 but what they actually mean is that’s when the lifeguards get up there so they take 45 minutes getting the ride ready. But wait! The ride breaks down so they take another 20 minutes re-booting the system so you don’t actually get to ride until 1:15.

[@AntMan7111]

Just got back from one yesterday. I’m gold status, and still learned a lot

[@Mombierella]

FE is one of my favorite parts of DCL 😊

[@michaeladams1523]

my understanding with the Pixie dusting is that there is no signing up and it is just completely random, maybe if someone likes your door decorations or something.

[@disneeds]

It’s different for every cruise group. Mostly I see a list of people that want to participate and then the group knows who is in or not. It just varies.

[@nickovoxsipa]

What time is the latest you can debark?

[@disneeds]

Out of staterooms by 8am and everyone off the ship by about 9am.

[@rickyragazzo2610]

14:10 Although all the ships have a Future Cruise Planning Desk, I’ve never seen anyone there since COVID happened- even though there’s a fully staffed DVC Desk which is it’s own issue. Anyways they just want you to do the placeholder on the app and then call when you get off to fill the reservation.

[@rickyragazzo2610]

15:09 yea so this one’s rlly nice. they rlly do not advertise this but it’s a solid feature. Words (no pics/vids/files) go through even to people off the boat. I believe this also works for DMs across various social media sites.

[@rickyragazzo2610]

11:16 They only started selling them bc people would steal them lol

[@maldo007]

Thanks for the information.

[@disneeds]

You’re welcome!

[@walterwhite1]

Disney cruise is so bad now. It’s lost it’s magic just not worth going anymore guys!

[@SeenOnPinterest]

Oh no! Why do you say so?

[@walterwhite1]

@@SeenOnPinterest I cover the entertainment industry focusing on movies and theme parks. Disney has revealed that its cruise line was still stuck in the troubled waters of the pandemic last year as it made a $325.8 million net loss - the second-worst result in its 26-year history! That’s all you need to know man

[@debbabe2254]

​@walterwhite1 The entire cruise industry suffered from the pandemic shutdown, like so many industries. Many won't recover merely because the lockdown is over -- many companies may take years to recover. BTW, we went on a 7 day Disney Cruise and it was as magical as ever. Just our experience. ✨️🧚🏼‍♂️✨️
