November 2015 - Help me pick a ship!

[RNicole1]

Our 10-year anniversary is next November and we are planning a Disney cruise. Due to a personal lack of childcare, we are also planning to bring our 2 daughter's (they will be ages 6 and 4) with us. Due to being a teacher and my oldest in school, we are looking at Thanksgiving week (which is also the week of our actual anniversary.) We would like to leave from Port Canaveral since we are also planning to do a couple of days at Disney World.

Can you guys help me decide between the Magic, Wonder and Dream? They all have 4-night cruises that week.

TIA!

Edited: Thanks guys...I did look at the wrong year for the Wonder and port for the Magic! OOPS! I guess it will definitely be the Dream!

November '15 the Wonder will be in Galveston. I think the Magic will be in Miami. The Dream will be in PC but does short 3 and 4 night cruises. So it will depend on how long you want to sail. Every ship has its own uniqueness, all ships have Disney feel and hospitality.
What ever you choose you can not go wrong sailing with Disney.

ENJOY!!!

Well if price isn't any factor I would probably pick the Dream since it will leave from Port Canaveral and it has all the bells and whistles with the AquaDuck and the kids clubs are amazing. I think it may be more costly to sail the Dream but I don't see why you would go out of Miami or Galveston if you can take the best ship just 45 minutes from Disney. If you save a significant amount of money to sail the Magic out of Miami I would consider that as well as it is about a 3.5 hour trip to Miami maybe??? Haven't done it in years but if you save a significant amount of money to ride down from Orlando.....


Have fun planning!!

Normally I'd be all for the Magic but if you're doing it all in a week? Parks and Dream. I wouldn't want to waste good chunk of time driving.

Just know that WDW will be crazy. I'd personally pick a week long cruise instead if it was viable. It might be busy but there is a ceiling on how many people can be on the ship.
