BBB Booking Question

[BugsAndBeans]

Hi Everyone, First off, I have learned so much from reading everything, so thank you! I am in the process of planning my families first Disney Cruise and I was wondering when I would be able to book the "Bibbily Bobbilly Boutique" as my daughter calls it. Is it 180 days like at WDW or when I book the cruise? Thank you in advance!

I believe it would be when your online checkin/excursion booking window opens. For first time cruisers that is 75 days out from the cruise. Unless you've booked Concierge, then it's 120 days.

Thank you!

we walked in the morning that we wanted to go, and they had the whole day free. When my girls went, they were the only ones in there the entire time. I'm not under the impression that it's difficult to get a time, although pirate night may be different. Plenty of people came up to us after seeing the girls in their mermaid outfits and asked about it, and then we saw them later in the week with the same package, so i assume they all just went in and booked a time on the spot as well.

Yes, PrincessShmoo is correct. You can book it when your check in window opens, along with Port Adventures, Palo and Remy dining, spa appointments, and your PAT time.

I knew you guys would know! Thank you so much! And I'm surprised that it's not the craziness that is WDW trying to get a reservation. I'm pretty sure this is a once in a lifetime trip for us, and I want it all to be amazing!

While I have so many experts, is there a specific day you would recommend for a 5 year old to have her appointment? I'm not sure when anything is, so I'd appreciate the input. Thanks again.

Since we waited until we were on the cruise, we picked a day when the weather wasn't great and the kids wouldnt be swimming as much. (my girls were 4 and 5)

I'd go with the formal night, which on our cruise is the 2nd night. We're on an Eastern Itinerary A. I'm pretty sure all the Fantasy cruises have formal night on that second night, but I'm not 100% sure.

You guys are the best! We've taken our kids (Bug- 7 when we go; and Bean- 5 at travel) to WDW 3 times but never thought we can afford a Disney Cruise, but my Grandmother passed away in January and told us we should make memories with them and this is what we decided! I can't wait to tell the kids. Thanks again for everything.
