Hello everyone! New to the board - we just booked this cruise last week! It will be our second
Disney cruise aboard the Wonder but first first Mexican Riviera! Our last cruise was in 2008 and was to Castaway Cay and Nassau for 4 nights and WDW for 3 nights.
Welcome aboard!
Sooooo, I feel like I have no idea what to expect from this cruise! Any tips? Since we booked sooo last minute we were given a guaranteed room...if it's awful are we able to upgrade once on the ship? Does it cost a fortune if you wait that long?
I doubt the room will be horrible, but if it doesn't suit you, you can ask at the port (or guest services once onboard) if any upgrades are available. Actually, those upgrades are usually cheaper than if you upgrade before!
What nights are formal nights? Just how formal are they? Tux? suit? dinner jacket? Evening gown? cocktail dress? sun dress?
Formal night will most likely be night 2, and there will also be a "semi-formal" night. It's certainly not like other cruise lines, you will see everything from tuxes to shorts (and let's not get into the shorts discussion...) and no one will feel out of place, whatever they're wearing.
The kids LOVED the pirates in the Caribbean part on the last sailing - is there something similar for the MR sailing?
We'll have a Pirate night!
Anyone else gluten free? This is our first cruise after Celiac diagnosis and hoping for lots of safe options!
I know there are others on our cruise as well. I can't say I've dealt with it personally, but from all reports, Disney is very good about having options for all kinds of dietary restrictions!
We have 2 children 10 and 13 and we live in south Orange County, CA. So excited I can hardly concentrate at work!
Thanks for the help!!
