Dear Disney fans and all lovely and good people,as Disney's employee on Castaway I think that you deserve to know couple of things regarding Island. Just recently went home for vacation but from reasons which will be explained in text I can not same my name, but let just say that I am currently was employed on Castaway Cay as international worker. Yes, very same island that many of you love and gladly going there to experience nice beaches and Disney level of excellence that we are so proud on. Yes, very same that island. As you all in states already knows, Disney is proud on their inclusion policy, fair treatment of all employees, promoting meritocracy and fighting against racism, nepotism and similar backwards things. Well, regarding Castaway Cay, you should know several things that make you think again about Castaway. As island international employee I need to bring couple of things to your attention regarding mistreatment of international employees under Disney/Bahamian rule.I arrived long time ago on Castaway and started my carrier as lifeguard and at that time most of island crew where internationals from all over the world, also we had local Bahamians as well. Everything was working fantastic, our crew was hired according by Disney very strict and demanding rules, which allowed company to provide best level of service for American/Disney’s guests and provide superb experience. Recruitment process was very strict(for lifeguards), requirements where that everyone who applied for this position supposed to be superb swimmer, with previous work experience in similar area, police/criminal background check and etcetera. Upon arrival on island we used to had drug test, swim test and if you fail you are going back home. This process, along with Disney strict work policies, where enabling Disney’s guests superb experience and safety on island, because we had team of proven lifeguards ready to act at any moment. However, in past 2-3 years things started to change from bad to worse, dropping down in recruitment requirements, general negligence, and promoting Bahamians only work policies especially. All this things and especially Bahamians only work policy above anything else leaded to deteoriation and dropping down in quality of the workers, safety of the island crew and pushing on side Disney inclusion and everyone are equal policies. As Disney employee, it’s my duty to inform everyone about grave injustice and mistreatment of international island crew that is going right now on Castaway Cay, and Disney’s indifference toward that. For past 2-3 years, DCL is under pressure of Bahamian government to apply Bahamians only policy despite the fact that their law allows 20:80 ratio in Bahamian favor, and that rule started to create lots of problem and mistreatment, racism and bad treatment of international workers including American one on Castaway Cay. Also, created generally unsafe environment for Guests. As interactional worker who embraced inclusion, Disney way of running business, who until now was winning, I feel obligated to turn attention of world on what is going for past 2 years on Disney private Island. So, here we go: Bahamians only work policy means that all international will be replaced Bahamian regardless their skills or level of competency, that means that does not matter if Bahamian is completely lacks essential skill for some position, he/she is not fit and etc, he/she be brought on position despite total incompetence. As lifeguard, I will first speak about impact on our department and safety of the Guests and that about general situation on island. For past several months for new lifeguard’s crew there is almost no any requirement for job except being Bahamian. New hires all all Bahamians, 90 percent of them does not know to swim properly or at all, and lacking any skill for position. Swim test is canceled, so right now people who are in charged for guests rescue/assistance are completely incompetent and bad swimmers who can even past swim test or even swim properly. Company is pressed by Bahamian government and new Bahamian island director Earle Bettel, who’s is racist toward anyone who is not Bahamian, to hire more and more Bahamians regarding the fact that they are incompetent and lack any qualifications for job. Mr.Earle repeated several times publicly that his goal is to replace all internationals with Bahamians, and we all going to be here just until he finds someone from Bahamas to replace us. Our lifeguards managers are also Bahamians, and we been told that any key position on island from now one can be held Bahamians only. International workers are been said in face every week that will be replaced very soon, and Bahamians enjoy doing that. Very inclusive and totally we are all equal Disney policies, right? As professional, I am deeply worried about safety of our Guests on island cause most incompetent peoples are hired for the job. Another thing is general safety of crew and guests. As I told you earlier in text, police background check was mandatory, but now that is cancelled to, but only for Bahamians. While internationals every time when renewing work permit need to submit police background check, is not anymore needed for Bahamians. As result of that I discovered that we have more and more new hires on island have criminal record, and spent couple of years/months in prison. We have burglars, thieves, (perhaps even murderers) and similar scum now on island. Just imagine that people with criminal record are in charge for guest safety, and we have to live with them on castaway. But company is unfortunately forced to tolerate this cause of Bahamian government and Mr.Earle Bettel. Drug test for new hires and random drug test are still mandatory, but: due to the fact that drugs and marijuana are very common among Bahamians they cancelled urine and switch to saliva drug testing cause if you rinse mouth with vinegar prior testing, will come out negative. They don’t one to lose their Bahamians employees and helping them in every way possible to deceive drug testing. Matter of fact, if you walk on Castaway during nighttime, you can sometimes smell marijuana in certain parts of island. In other departments situation is pretty much the same: Bahamians only new hires, incompetent, with dubious criminal records and similar. Encouraged by island director, everyone are bringing their friends, relatives, cousins to work here, despite the fact their only qualification for job is being Bahamian. Unfortunately, DCL is forced to accept this behavior and play by Bahamian rules, and from some reason does not try to fight back. At this moment Castaway is running on incompetence, nepotism and racism like policies toward anyone who is not Bahamian. As Disney employee, I am using this opportunity to reach you in hope that somehow by making this public, Disney will be forced to act and stop this shameful behavior toward their international employees on Castaway and fight back Bahamian government and Mr.Earle Bettel. At this moment on island, Disney inclusion policy is failing big time and something needs to be done.

I went on the wish in February as a college graduation present and I loved it! It’s definitely different than the other ships but they nailed a lot of the theming. The reason why the walking track doesn’t go fully around is because the Arendelle restaurant goes fully to the back of the ship and has those big windows at the back.

Recruitment process was very strict(for lifeguards), requirements where that everyone who applied for this position supposed to be superb swimmer, with previous work experience in similar area, police/criminal background check and etcetera. Upon arrival on island we used to had drug test, swim test and if you fail you are going back home. This process, along with Disney strict work policies, where enabling Disney’s guests superb experience and safety on island, because we had team of proven lifeguards ready to act at any moment. However, in past 2-3 years things started to change from bad to worse, dropping down in recruitment requirements, general negligence, and promoting Bahamians only work policies especially. All this things and especially Bahamians only work policy above anything else leaded to deteoriation and dropping down in quality of the workers, safety of the island crew and pushing on side Disney inclusion and everyone are equal policies. As Disney employee, it’s my duty to inform everyone about grave injustice and mistreatment of international island crew that is going right now on Castaway Cay, and Disney’s indifference toward that. For past 2-3 years, DCL is under pressure of Bahamian government to apply Bahamians only policy despite the fact that their law allows 20:80 ratio in Bahamian favor, and that rule started to create lots of problem and mistreatment, racism and bad treatment of international workers including American one on Castaway Cay. Also, created generally unsafe environment for Guests. As interactional worker who embraced inclusion, Disney way of running business, who until now was winning, I feel obligated to turn attention of world on what is going for past 2 years on Disney private Island. So, here we go: Bahamians only work policy means that all international will be replaced Bahamian regardless their skills or level of competency, that means that does not matter if Bahamian is completely lacks essential skill for some position, he/she is not fit and etc, he/she be brought on position despite total incompetence. As lifeguard, I will first speak about impact on our department and safety of the Guests and that about general situation on island. For past several months for new lifeguard’s crew there is almost no any requirement for job except being Bahamian. New hires all all Bahamians, 90 percent of them does not know to swim properly or at all, and lacking any skill for position. Swim test is canceled, so right now people who are in charged for guests rescue/assistance are completely incompetent and bad swimmers who can even past swim test or even swim properly. Company is pressed by Bahamian government and new Bahamian island director Earle Bettel, who’s is racist toward anyone who is not Bahamian, to hire more and more Bahamians regarding the fact that they are incompetent and lack any qualifications for job. Mr.Earle repeated several times publicly that his goal is to replace all internationals with Bahamians, and we all going to be here just until he finds someone from Bahamas to replace us. Our lifeguards managers are also Bahamians, and we been told that any key position on island from now one can be held Bahamians only. International workers are been said in face every week that will be replaced very soon, and Bahamians enjoy doing that. Very inclusive and totally we are all equal Disney policies, right? As professional, I am deeply worried about safety of our Guests on island cause most incompetent peoples are hired for the job. Another thing is general safety of crew and guests. As I told you earlier in text, police background check was mandatory, but now that is cancelled to, but only for Bahamians. While internationals every time when renewing work permit need to submit police background check, is not anymore needed for Bahamians. As result of that I discovered that we have more and more new hires on island have criminal record, and spent couple of years/months in prison. We have burglars, thieves, (perhaps even murderers) and similar scum now on island. Just imagine that people with criminal record are in charge for guest safety, and we have to live with them on castaway. But company is unfortunately forced to tolerate this cause of Bahamian government and Mr.Earle Bettel. Drug test for new hires and random drug test are still mandatory, but: due to the fact that drugs and marijuana are very common among Bahamians they cancelled urine and switch to saliva drug testing cause if you rinse mouth with vinegar prior testing, will come out negative. They don’t one to lose their Bahamians employees and helping them in every way possible to deceive drug testing. Matter of fact, if you walk on Castaway during nighttime, you can sometimes smell marijuana in certain parts of island. In other departments situation is pretty much the same: Bahamians only new hires, incompetent, with dubious criminal records and similar. Encouraged by island director, everyone are bringing their friends, relatives, cousins to work here, despite the fact their only qualification for job is being Bahamian. Unfortunately, DCL is forced to accept this behavior and play by Bahamian rules, and from some reason does not try to fight back. At this moment Castaway is running on incompetence, nepotism and racism like policies toward anyone who is not Bahamian. As Disney employee, I am using this opportunity to reach you in hope that somehow by making this public, Disney will be forced to act and stop this shameful behavior toward their international employees on Castaway and fight back Bahamian government and Mr.Earle Bettel. At this moment on island, Disney inclusion policy is failing big time and something needs to be done.

Im so excited for bands on the Wish. I don't know why it has taken so long to see them onboard a ship. Some other cruiselines have been doing madallions which are the same tech, but Disney has had them at WDW for years.

@AdventuresinMillerland 8 ай бұрын

I love how princess uses the medallion, so Disney has a long ways to go on catching up to the tech that other cruise lines are using. It would definitely make the extra cost for magic/disney band+ more worth it. We’re still debating if the added cost was worth it for us. We’ll talk about it more when we do our Wish review video!

We might include what we use in a future video. We honestly don’t put a ton of thought into what we use. She has a few backpacks, but she actually prefers her other one over the one she used.

Ours was the 2nd Halloween on the high seas cruise on the wish, so we missed the 25th sailings by a week. As far as I’ve understand it, the new lanyards and state room gifts are the new castaway club gifts, replacing the old ones going forward. Not just for the 25th anniversary.

My family and I cruised on the Wish last November. Even though I enjoyed my cruise, the Wish is my least favorite ship. It lacks open areas and feels small even though it is a bigger ship. Lastly, the adult pool area, if you can call it that, is basically nonexistent. I will stick to the Dream and Fantasy.

@AdventuresinMillerland 3 ай бұрын

On the Wish, only Palo and Enchanté cost extra. A few other up charge options are joyful sweets (ice cream/sweet shop), mocktail/alcoholic drinks, and specialty coffees. If you’ve never done it before, Palo brunch is incredible. It is adults only, so if you’re prioritizing time with your grandkids, then, maybe that’s not the best option. All the food on the ship is pretty good. Palo brunch is a great meal and it’s more of an experience, and a nice break from kids if they want to hang out in the kids club. Definitely worth the price of $50 per person for what you get.
