SECRETS of Disney Cruise Line’s Gigantic New MEGASHIP -- The Wish

[@rrrryno]

props to the lifeguard proactively scanning the clearly empty pool bc he's on camera 😂👍

[@DennisO22]

10/20

[@GetAwayGalAdventures]

Disney makes all lifeguards scan a walk around look at all times… even when unoccupied. They do it at all resorts too.

[@buckybarnes3015]

Would you rather have him be texting on his phone?

[@AKbaby89]

I'll be 33 this month, and the Disney cruise my family went on when I was in middle school, is still one of my favorite memories🙌🙌❤️

[@StoneUSA]

Wait, wait, wait. Wait! OMG, WAIT! ... Back up to 1:24... Those are literally cutest nails I've ever seen. Okay, now on with the video!

[@Shag471]

You caught a couple of stars on vacation at the 18:32 mark 😆 Joshua Basset from the Disney High School Musical series (in the black & white floral shirt) and Andrew Barth Feldman from Dear Evan Hansen on Broadway (in the black shirt).

[@stubidbaby978]

I'm so happy someone else caught that

[@sarah_whitson21]

I noticed that

[@SoniaDekker]

Oh my, that manicure is divine! Absolutely gorgeous!

[@richardmercer2337]

"Slipping throught the CRACKS?"?! Maybe not the best expression for a new cruise ship! 😁

[@carloskreek7419]

🤣🤣🍿🍿

[@trooper5157]

Yahoo! Nightlights in the bathroom! About time. Still, sounds like there are a tremendous number of design oversights and snafu's on board. Have not yet sailed the Wish but still gotta believe that the Fantasy will stay my favorite... at least it has a full circumference track on deck 4.

[@loracaro4427]

Love the mickey on the nails love the nail art always

[@BethWade]

Thanks for sharing these! Just booked my 2023 cruise on the Wish and I'm excited to see there will be some more out-of-the-way places to hideout and relax. In the next video, can you explain a bit more about the barbery bar? I can't tell if the barber shop is merely the entrance to the bar, or if you can only get a drink with a barber service. Thanks!

[@craigpinkava6256]

Great job covering the new Wish, AJ! Somehow, throughout most of the vlog, I started to whimper like a puppy at most of the secrets you revealed while I was viewing this while I had my morning coffee! 😂

[@patricklaneuville9701]

Such great coverage from DFB! Can’t wait to sail on the Wish in August.

[@veronicajude]

Lucky! 😍

[@stephaniebattison2334]

I'm very jealous!

[@nicholasrusso9982]

I’ll be there in August as well!!

[@ContempoCoding]

So excited for my Halloween on the High Seas cruise!

[@jessicaroscoe1437]

Just an FYI Your sail date must be within 15 days of the current date before it is available for registration in Safe Passage. So you can’t register or order your tests too soon.

[@the_red_key8825]

Ha, I love your videos but I dont want to spoil the ship too much for me, but I’ll be on it in less than 2 weeks! I’ll just be sad tho if I missed something you had in this video and see it too late…maybe I’ll watch it on board 😂 So EXCITED!!!!

[@stephkimble21]

Can't wait for October! Bring on all the details AJ!

[@veronicajude]

While i have loved being in Florida during the panny I’m not down for being on a cruise yet…. But when i am this is the one I want to do!!!!! 🖤🎩🥂

[@petro0889]

Same here in every way, Veronica!

[@liora8896]

mSame with me, Dont think ill be cruising for a while, but the wish on my bucketlist!

[@TheWASHINGMACHINEBOY]

i got back from a disney cruise yesterday, but i was on the disney dream, but that's still pretty good considering it is about the same size as the disney fantasy. i also learned quite a lot about the disney cruise line on that cruise

[@emilyw7043]

Boarding tomorrow for the maiden voyage 🎉🎉🎉

[@wilfredodiaz8743]

That Ship it beautiful Thanks for sharing your video with us here on KZbin. Sadly this might be the only way we get to see what this ship has to offers

[@valerieberry9363]

Thanks for these great tips! Can you go to the hidden bourbon bar in Hooks without having a service?

[@temmietaft2552]

Thanks for sharing this video. I found this video to be so helpful. I’m going to share this with my family.

[@olafpamela]

Thanks AJ👍😊 great new information I haven't heard before. Thanks for sharing ⚓⛴❤🤗

[@ace6502]

When I heard the toilet updates, you know I was about to watch the whole video just for that 😎

[@Officiallemon]

I’m going at the beginning of 2023 I can’t wait for the trip

[@NotASwiftie_13]

Whoever at the DFB team has the Mickey nails... they look great!

[@hannahschutzler]

I haven’t been on a Disney cruise in over a decade, would love to go on the wish

[@lauraf9860]

Kind of sad there isn’t a continuous track around the ship

[@el_covfefe]

The Hyperspace shows the failer of the hotel. Something like this in a space themed hotel would be much better.

[@MoL42q]

Light switches, INSIDE the bathroom?!?! Amazing! 😂

[@Mum_and_LizzyLark]

Does your channel have a video on the Olaf’s picnic? I was hoping you have a review of that. Finally, after watching you for 3 years (since I was in labor for my preemie rainbow baby), we are going on the Wish, in Feb 2024) for her first Disney experience. I have been searching on your channel for that special event. Have you taken your child AJ? Or anyone in your staff attended it? Thanks a million! ❤ Marie

[@summermazur3064]

I'm dying to know what makes that one Star Wars lounge drink cost a ridiculous $5000 amount! A diamond-encrusted glass? Super expensive champagne? Please tell us, AJ!

[@spoonlessvalkyrie7514]

I believe it comes with a vintage bottle of skywalker ranch wine and an exclusive tour of skywalker ranch.

[@KrazyLoveless]

@Adam Efimoff No, it comes with 4 drinks, a behind the scenes tour of skywalker ranch and character escorts around/off the ship.

[@KrazyLoveless]

@Adam Efimoff I never said I thought it was worth it lol. It’s not to me. I was just pointing out it’s more than just a drink lol

[@BethWade]

@@KrazyLoveless From what I saw (someone posted a vid of their ordering it), each of the four drinks isn't a cocktail, but a rare liquor or wine (difficult to produce, or only a few left in the world, etc.). So these are things that would cost you several hundred or a thousand dollars each anyway, off the ship. I've no idea how much a backstage tour of Skywalker Ranch costs (or if it's even available to the public in any other way), so determining the value of the experience definitely lies in "do you enjoy rare liquors" and "do you enjoy elite access to restricted, private areas".

[@SilverFoxForestsDesigns]

all my friends in did all the testing and came back clear but caught covid on the ships and came back very ill they said it made a change from getting a bad tum

[@kathryncashner3294]

Same passenger load as Fantasy and Dream, but slightly larger ship. Have fun....I'm moving to adult only cruising.

[@gluehorse12691]

Been waiting for this video. I'll be there in 6 weeks.

[@doug9622]

Wonderful nails! Very helpful video.

[@sabinamarshall3134]

I’m going on the wish in a few weeks I’m so excited!

[@melissahervey6203]

Just got off the Dream and we used OnPoint testing…it was super easy!!

[@kris-tkris-t3271]

Such great information thank u so much. Keep up da wonderful work up

[@saarahruth]

I’ve never wanted to go on a cruise. But this yeah this I want to do

[@valeriegoulettalbot9900]

Same, cruises never really appealed to me, but the fact that it’s themed makes it much more interesting!

[@ajmadamba2476]

Omg it’s Joshua Bassett and Andrew Barth Feldman at 18:34

[@Shag471]

I noticed them right away! 😆

[@shinelight999]

Andrew Barth Feldman cameo at 18:34 lol

[@suziequeue2]

How soon can you order tests?

[@kathyriggs7266]

I loved the video but I wish you would have covered the food and the different restaurants more.

[@kirstybrown1185]

She says at the end, they are doing another video about the food.

[@kendallskonfessions4606]

Can you do a video on the stores and merch on the ship

[@kimt8162]

Hyperspace Lounge???? Loved space 220. Reservations, got it.

[@msgail5988]

I was on that trip as well

[@kendallskonfessions4606]

Can you use magic bands on a Disney cruise ?

[@mackinzielizabeth872]

great video

[@suziequeue2]

Does the cove cafe still have free snacks?

[@anthonykp25]

Everything looked great! But AJ! You're from Texas! That bbq did not look great it looked sooooo dry 😆

[@jennifernielsen599]

That was definitely some dry looking brisket!

[@kaiulanisallas9005]

The ribs are delicious!! And the different BBQ sauces are amazing!

[@markthomas6236]

I love what you do

[@bluexbunnyyquit8813]

Yes

[@emilyw7043]

Gosh darn it. I can’t turn the light off on people while they’re taking too long to get ready in the bathroom in the morning. They put the light switch on the inside. 😢

[@kathyrobinson4344]

This is 2023, Are covid tests still required ? We cruise the end of August

[@mackenzieesslin3111]

It looks so neat

[@Theheadless1858]

Secret number one the Aladdin musical is not ready for the upcoming trips. So despite it being the first show advertised you won’t get to see it. Enjoy the little mermaid and that’s it.

[@carol2girls]

Little mermaid would be my first!! But can’t get on a ship seasick sucks

[@KrazyLoveless]

They also have the new show starring captain Minnie that basically replaces the golden Mickeys for this ship. So there are at least 2 shows lol but Aladdin is my favorite 😍

[@peter-mickey-chu198]

Starting Tomorrow My Asian Wife (Maya) Will Be Working On This Disney Cruise Line Ship (Disney Wish).

[@Sportsbh21]

I was just on it it was so fun

[@Cantpasslevelcandycrush]

I love chicken tenders and fries so much.

[@mattdisney1132]

Today is Disney wish is ready for maiden voyage

[@darlenelibbi1030]

Can you get gluten free chicken tenders at the festival of foods?

[@dylandwhat]

kristoff cast member caked up 😋

[@InMyCruisingEra]

Where is the free morning coffee ?

[@mattdisney1132]

Tomorrow is maiden voyage

[@timkeith7201]

Are they still requiring guess to be vaccinated if so any idea or hints if they’re going to lift that requirement?

[@loracaro4427]

Yes they are

[@thomasjeske9766]

I love you AJ!

[@KrazyLoveless]

I am so sick and tired of having to make reservations to do anything Disney related. I made a reservation to be ON THE SHIP. I shouldn’t then have to go making reservations to go to places on the ship I already reserved a spot on! Also, who was the one that decided to make what they knew would be such a popular space so SMALL!? I just don’t get it. It’s an amazing ship and I love DCL but my fear is the cruise line is going the same direction as the parks, and I actively avoid the parks now as they’re just not worth the hassle anymore and it genuinely pains me to say that 🤦🏼‍♀️

[@tatianaragland4007]

I agree with you. Disney are con-artist at this point.

[@1snowlin]

I agree! Such a large ship and yet they didn’t think ahead to make a larger space for a popular themed lounge??? I feel like at this point they do it on purpose to make people feel like it is exciting bc it’s almost exclusive.

[@jasonhensley2452]

To put things in perspective it's kinda a nessisary evil. In the parks if they didn't have the option to make reservations then you would likely spend most of your trip standing in lines for a restaurant you may or may not get into. In regards to the cruise ship they have better control over the guest population and when you buy a ticket that should come with automatic reservations at accommodate anyone on the ship that wants them. Let people make reservations right away at the time of ticket purchase since some people might not want to spend the extra money on paid restaurants they can better control it. With that said they definitely dropped the ball on themed experiences on the ship. The Star Wars bar should have been much larger.

[@KrazyLoveless]

@@jasonhensley2452 I already do nothing but mostly stand in line, even with the reservation system. They need to put a REASONABLE cap on the number of people allowed in everyday but they’ll literally never do it. Imagine walking down Main Street and being able to extend both of your arms at your side without hitting 18 people in the face lol. Never gonna happen, unfortunately. All good though, it is how it is 🥰

[@brittniep9219]

Yeah I think the problem is how small it is for sure. I think to make it feel “exclusive”

[@DadWisdomBites]

i am excited to take my kids. but will wait for things to get sorted out before I take them.

[@dachshundsaremylife667]

There are elevators on a cruise ship. Can we all that sink for a moment?

[@jayjaybulldog9180]

There’s 104 days of Disney vacation and guests comes along just to WISH it So the annual problem for our generation is finding a good way to spend it? LIKE MAYBE 🤔?

[@leeuwestein101]

Totally sang that!!

[@sebastianhale7424]

I think lots and lots people who want to go on the new Disney Wish will be tested negative for COVID-19 and only one two three will be tested positive, because COVID-19 is endemic now. As I've heard, the Bibbidi Bobbidi Boutique in Disneyland is going to open up again and start giving princess makeovers to little girls again on the 25th day of August and the new Disney Wish is going to start sailing this Friday.

[@conradbezo5530]

No walking track? 😞

[@evanwright8762]

lol are the costumes still super itchy on the ships like they are in the parks? poor kiddos hate wearing them after an hour their so itchy in the parks

[@chrissysm1981]

I heard they’ve fixed the elevator buttons on the wish.

[@ddramos956]

Do people need a passport for these Disney cruises?

[@amlocke]

Where is the Disney Wish pamphlet?

[@Sarlat6]

Say what? The mid elevators are constantly busy.

[@aarenleigh6575]

I guess I won’t be going until they remove the vaccine requirement. Great video as always AJ, and what a gorgeous ship 🚢 ❤️

[@tiffanyyheld1115]

🤩🤩🤩

[@tumiretimberlake1624]

If you test negative for COVID-19 you don’t have to be vaccinated correct? I just want to make sure I have the information right🙂 I want to take a Disney Cruise.

[@markw3455]

It sounded like you have to be vaccinated and test negative 48 hours prior to sailing.

[@karenrinaldi1837]

You have to be fully vaccinated and test negative.

[@MD-co4lu]

you need the vaccine

[@KrazyLoveless]

Nope, you have to be vaxxed and show proof and then also test negative

[@tumiretimberlake1624]

Thank you all

[@Sportsbh21]

The actors are the same when I went

[@HeatherLass]

The lack of running track annoys me to no end but also that they took away an adult area (satellite falls) and turned it into a quiet pool for "families".

[@clairebecker2490]

the $5000 WHAT

[@timmoore3534]

Mega ship? As the industry standards it is barely a yacht compared to competitors.

[@kendallskonfessions4606]

Do you need a passport,?

[@NinthShinigami]

Another secret: they’re reportedly selling a $5000 Star Wars cocktail lol

[@markw3455]

She mentioned that.

[@NinthShinigami]

@@markw3455 I commented before watching it lol

[@thejoshwileychannel]

You have to be vaccinated and test negative 😂 what’s the point?

[@caitlynskiff2001]

Because being vaccinated doesn't keep you from getting or carrying the disease. It just helps with making sure you don't get really sick. In December my family got Covid. Me, my mom, and my dad are vaccinated and only had mild symptoms and were fine in a week. My brother is not vaccinated and he ended up in the hospital (on Christmas) and he still has breathing problems.

[@thejoshwileychannel]

@@caitlynskiff2001 I get that. But the fact I’m going to spend thousands of dollars on a trip and get a jab I don’t want to get and still might possibly test positive and all of it is over is ridiculous.

[@caitlynskiff2001]

@@thejoshwileychannel I agree it would really suck to go through all of it and not get to go on the cruise, but a lot of it is a precaution for not only you, but other people as well. Plus I don't think the vaccine requirement is gonna change anytime soon.

[@thejoshwileychannel]

@@caitlynskiff2001 then a lot of people won’t be going on cruises that would previously. They’ll just go to Disney world. Or will go somewhere else. As soon as they see it hurting their money they reverse it.

[@mko1753]

It’s obvious by now that it’s not a true vaccine. Regardless of vax status, you can get, spread and also die of covid. Seems just discriminatory to deny services at this point

[@mko1753]

I can’t believe we are still playing pandemic

[@chriso1626]

Well I was enjoying this video until the Wuhan Virus mess came up🤦🏼‍♂️…No cruise for my family…

[@sikk_osrs3635]

Man what a great lawsuit that would be. I’m being singled out because I’m not vaccinated. Can’t wait for that.
