So, you're saying that I just need to buy a hat right away to cover up my head that will be newly bald from ripping my hair out?

Disney Wish’s November 11, 2022 Embarkation Delayed 4 Hours – Nassau Call Dropped for Day at Sea

This evening, Disney Cruise Line informed guests booked on Friday, November 11th’s 3-Night Bahamian cruise to arrive at the terminal at least least four (4) hours after their selected port arrival time, but no later than 8:00 p.m.

As a result of this delayed departure from Port Canaveral, the sailing will also have an itinerary modification. Instead of visiting Nassau on Saturday, the ship will now spend the day at sea, followed by the scheduled call to Castaway Cay on Sunday.

Good Morning!

I wonder how crowded those flights will be considering many passengers have probably cancelled/rescheduled their flights

I can only imagine how bonkers the airport is going to be today. We're on the Wish now, with delayed arrival in Canaveral until the port has been cleared. Initially, they told us to reschedule all flights starting before 3pm, then yesterday bumped it to 5pm. Except, by then I'm assuming all the flights were full of people who have been trying to get out since Wednesday afternoon!!

I'm so glad we have a day at the the World scheduled or we'd be scrambling for flights/hotels too.

Yes, the cruise was lovely despite the hurricane impacts.

It looks like we're doing a 3 park hop tomorrow! Starting in MK but the girls also want to hit EP and HS rides for their park birthday. I'm raising park stormers!!!

No idea who she is, but it would be a waste of Josh's talent if they don't include "If I can't Love Her" from the Broadway version.

Is it too much to ask to maybe finally add characters into Florida small world when they add in the handy-capable dolls

I am all for this, but it's odd to think about It's a Small World needing to be more inclusive - it's like the original inclusive (and wonderful) thing!

I am all for this, but it's odd to think about It's a Small World needing to be more inclusive - it's like the original inclusive (and wonderful) thing!

It’s definitely the easiest attraction to showcase that level of inclusion. Might as well start there.
