    Each adult over age 18 has to have a unique email address associated with their account for login purposes....an access code gets emailed to them when setting up account.....I had to do this for my parents and just called them as they checked their email and got the codes....if they don't have...

    Reservations

    No, and that was a bit frustrating. You could not make dining reservations on the app. You had to call the reservations number.

    Reservations

    we were there last week and reservations were helpful if you wanted to eat at a specific time or not too late.....you could walk up and put your name in but often were told it would be over an hour wait....if you called, you had better luck

    Yeti

    Disney policy is that any wine/beer brought onboard should be consumed only in one's stateroom. That being said, we bring our Yeti cups and walk around the pool area or Castaway Cay, and no one has ever asked us what was in them. If you're planning on taking wine to dinner, you can stop at any...

    Port of Miami...Hotel the night before????

    We stay in South Beach when we arrive the day before (if it's during the day). You can go to the beach, shop along Lincoln Rd., or stroll down Ocean Drive. Dinner at Joe's Stone Crab is wonderful if you like fresh seafood. We got a good rate on hotels dot com for The Albion hotel, which had a...

    Uber after early disembarkation?

    We had no problem getting an Uber to take us to MCO, but we took our time disembarking, so it was probably around 9:30-9:45 when we ordered one.

    Do you bring your own cups?

    We take our large Yetis with handles. We also bring either a Kleen Kanteen, or Yeti's new screw top bottle for excursions. The less plastic you use, the less will end up in the Carribean or any ocean.

    Disney Magic docking at Castaway Cay

    Do the classic ships typically back in when docking at CC like the Dream and Fantasy do? I'm looking at booking a room on the Magic and wondering which side of ship has the view of Castaway Cay family beach while in port.

    Taxi to Atlantis

    The casino is free and about all you can do without being a hotel guest or pre-purchasing a day pass/excursion. You may want to check out the website resortsforaday dot com or something like that if you want to use pool/waterpark/beach. We are a family of 4 and book a room at the Comfort...

    What is there to do near the Miami Airport?

    We took a city tour on one of those open, double decker buses that included a boat tour of Miami harbor, which was fabulous. It was a great way to see the city quickly. The bus part is hop on hop off so if an area interested you, you can get off and explore a little. Miami Beach (Lincoln Rd...

    Coffee pots in a stateroom?

    If you’re picky about your coffee, you can bring your own ground coffee and a French press. Then order “tea” from room service and you will receive a carafe of hot water (it will stay hot overnight if you prefer to order it the night before). Use that in your French press to make your own...

    Car Rental from Port to MCO

    You may want to compare just taking Uber or Lyft from the port to the Grand Floridian and then from there to the airport. On each company's website there is a "fare estimator" where you put in the addresses of where you want to travel. It may or may not be cheaper than renting a car and paying...

    When do you unpack?

    but the key is to not overpack. you really won't need half of the clothes you think and can re-wear/re-mix your evening outfits since you're only in them for a few hours each night. Daytime, mostly you'll be in swimsuits/coverups or casual shorts/shirt. Shoe-wise, 2 pairs: a pair of flip...

    Taxi to Atlantis

    Yes, it's easy. When you walk out of the gates of the terminal, there are many taxis (van type) waiting to take you anywhere. I think they will quote you $4-5 per person to go to Atlantis, and may add people to your van until it's full. I think we paid $20 or so for our family of 4. Often, our...

    Left or Right side of Disney Dream?

    I've had verandahs on both sides of ship. Starboard has view of beach/activity area of Castaway, which is gorgeous, but port side allows you to see the anchoring/docking of the ship on Castaway which I found fascinating (listen for the small explosion which is how they launch the ropes onto the...

    super bummed...

    our first cruise on the Wonder was on deck 1, all the way forward and it was very quiet and super easy to get on and off at ports as there is a door all the way forward that opens directly into the tender lobby which is where you enter/exit at ports
