Hi All,
Soooo.... DH and I have been wanting to take a Disney cruise for about 2 years now, but have not been able to swing it.
Through some juggling, we have pulled off a 4 day Bahamian cruise on the Wonder. I will admit, we are not particularly excited about Nassau and the fact that it's the only port of call, but we are VERY excited about going on a - ahhh! - Disney Cruise!
We are 2 adults, no kids. We went on a cruise 12 years ago for our honeymoon and this will be our belated 12 year anniversary gift to ourselves.
We have the reservation. - Check! -
We have the flight. - Check -
Ummm.... now what?
I've read the sticky at the top. But... hmmm.... I'm sure there's things we should be doing to prepare, right?
- What is special about a Disney cruise that we aren't going to want to miss?
- What do we need to book separately (reserve?) that we are not thinking about?
- Are there theme nights that we need to pack some special items for that we aren't even aware of?
- I am a pin trader. I know there is some trading onboard. Can anyone give an idea of how much compared to the Parks (DL or WDW)?
- How do sodas, water, other non-alcoholic drinks work onboard cost-wise?
- What else should I know that we are not even thinking to ask?
Thank you all in advance for anything you can share. This is our first and we want it to be everything we have dreamt it to be.
We appreciate any input, ideas, or tips!
