Easter on a Ship

[oufpat]

For anyone thats been on a Disney Cruise over Easter, do you remember if they did anything special on board for children on Easter?

I don't remember any Easter-themed activities or decorations. We were able to order Easter baskets to be waiting in our room, though:

We boarded on Easter a few years back. There was nothing special for activities that I remember. Perhaps it is different if you are not boarding on Easter. Minnie & Mickey were dressed in their Easter best!

 

[Princess and Queen]

I was on the Fantasy a year back on Easter. All I can recall was a chocolate egg display at Animator’s Palate.

Easter was our last day on the Magic a few years ago. I remember a decorative Easter display in the MDR at breakfast.

Does anyone know if there are religious services on Easter?

Does anyone know if there are religious services on Easter?

If it is an actual cruising day and not a switchover day, there is normally a Mass offered.

Yes, concerning the Easter services. On the Fantasy we had a sunrise service (interdenominational) on the top deck...at sunrise, of course, which was brief and the sunrise was awesome. Check the Navigator for services and locations. There was a display at our MDR of bunnies & chocolate. Thumper was not available, however.

Great, glad to know this! We'll be on board in 2020. I think it's the day we debark, so we'll see if they have anything?

Odds are nothing on a debarkation/embarkation day service-wise. There just isn't time.

Our cruise had a nondenominational service and a photo op with the white rabbit from Alice.

Do you remember how far in advance you bought those? I don't seem them available right now under the Onboard Gifts.

Christmas and Halloween specific gifts are available around the 60 days out from your cruise point. Id expect any holiday offerings to be similar.

We were on the Magic last Easter. They also did a sunrise interdenominational service and it was beautiful!

I don't remember for sure, but I want to say it was fairly close to the cruise. I saw them listed with the other onboard gifts but I was a slacker about getting them ordered, and by the time I got around to it the Easter-themed gifts had already been removed from the list. I called DCL and was able to get them that way.
