Yes. There's plenty to do on board! Pools are open, along with some restaurants. Because many guests are off the ship when it's in port, you’ll have the perfect opportunity to enjoy "quiet time", relax by the pool, get in a workout at the fitness center or be pampered at the ship’s spa and salon. Teens 14 to 17 can also indulge themselves at our teens-only spa Chill.

Connecting staterooms with verandahs feature a partition that may be opened to create a larger shared balcony.

There are four general stateroom categories from which to choose. Within each category, a variety of stateroom types are offered that differ slightly from ship to ship. Our experts can explain the pros and cons of each and will help you choose the perfect cabin for you and your group.

Yes! The moment you board your ship, opportunities abound to meet favorite Disney Characters and pose for photos or add new autographs to your book. You’ll see Characters around the ship, in stage shows and during kids’ activities in youth clubs. And if one of your ports of call is Castaway Cay, you’ll have a chance to meet Disney Characters during an onshore Dance Party.

There are also several special onboard Character greetings where you can find yourself face-to-face with royalty at the Princess Gathering and get to meet several of your favorite Characters all at one time. (Some itineraries are also graced with the presence of Princess Anna and Queen Elsa from Frozen.) Additionally, Character meet-and greets also occur on select sailings during the Disney Junior Character Breakfast and the Disney VIP Character Breakfast.

To provide a more relaxed experience during these special Character Greetings, complimentary tickets are required. You can reserve your tickets for select Character experiences before you even board the ship. Speak to a CruiseInsider advisor to help you plan your Character experiences after we help complete your booking. Keep in mind that Character appearances are subject to change. Since space is extremely limited, only one reservation per ticketed event per voyage is allowed. Additional Character appearances that do not require a ticket are available throughout your cruise.

Like all cruises, any time of year is ideal for a Disney cruise vacation! Selecting which month is best for you is a personal choice that depends on your preferences, your budget and when you and your family are free to travel.

Itineraries during summer and winter holidays, including cruises during spring break, tend to be the most popular with most guests. We recommend you book peak season itineraries at least one year in advance for the best price and stateroom availability.

If your schedule is flexible, off-peak times―such as during the fall months―offer greater options and best-value pricing. No matter when you sail, making your reservation further in advance will give you the best rates for that sailing.
