At Port Canaveral yes, the 20th. I’m not saying any changes to that. I’m saying she’ll leave Bremerhaven on the 13th, arriving at PC on the 20th.

Sorry, I misread your post as arriving in PC on the 13th, not leaving Germany on the 13th!

Probably not until after the Wish's Christening on June 29th.

Maybe friends and family, too? I don't know. There are a few preview cruises scheduled to take place before the first official cruise, but I think those start after the ship arrives at Port Canaveral.

I thought this too but the videos I saw had people at the front who definitely weren't workers and had people on the balconies of the rooms. So it definitely looks like they are "guests". Not sure who or what but they were dressed in street clothes

I'm going out on a limb but guessing it's not any "regular" people/guests and they all have something to do with Disney.

Of course. We knew it was going to be cast members, then media, then cruises for people who won contests, etc. I just meant it seemed like it was people who were able to enjoy the ship. Whatever of it is open to them.

The times I wish I worked for Disney.....

 

[LambertLion]

Probably friends and family members, cast members and VIPs and contest winners are on the transatlantic cruise. So lucky!

There are castmembers on board who are not working, that are simply on board enjoying the cruise as any other paying guest would.
