While it’s true that cruise lines cycle out ships as they age (Carnival Cruise Line and MSC Cruises are adding new ships), Disney Cruise Line has some of the latest boats in the industry. Setting sail for the first time in 1998, the Disney Magic was the first of the Disney Cruise Line Disney fleet to wow Guests. The Disney Magic, Disney Wonder, Disney Dream, Disney Fantasy, and Disney Wish ships are fun and up-to-date ways to travel with the newest amenities, activities, and dining experiences for Guests to enjoy.
Cast Member Care
The kind Cast Members and excellent care that Guests receive at Walt Disney World translates right over to the Disney Cruise Line.

Kid and Adult Friendly
While there is no doubt that cruises are a fun vacation option, not all cruise lines cater to the whole family like a Disney Cruise does. The kids club that can be found on most cruise lines is amped up to the max and sprinkled with pixie dust to keep kids fully engaged, having fun, and making friends during vacation.
Disney knows how to do kid’s clubs. With activity groups for young children through teens available throughout the day and evening, there truly is something for the whole family to enjoy on a Disney Cruise. Kids will love interacting with characters, playing with counselors, watching movies, swimming, crafting, and engaging in many other activities. Activity groups also mean that parents can enjoy some alone time in the spa or pool knowing that the kids are having a great time.
Let the little ones play at the Oceaneers Club while parents relax at the quiet cove pool. Adults will love a Disney Cruise as much as kids. With a gorgeous spa, quiet adult pools, delicious bars, and secluded decks for adults only, you will experience luxury alongside Disney magic.
Enjoy a Broadway-style Disney stage show every night at sea on your Disney Cruise, or drop by the theatre each day to enjoy classic Disney films. From characters to shows to music, trivia, and movies, you will feel all the Disney movie love by the end of your vacation. We promise you’ll get your Disney princesses, Disney Junior, Pixar, Pirates and Marvel, and Disney musical fix on this vacation!

Spacious Rooms
Traditional cruise staterooms are known for being tiny to pack in as many Guest rooms on the ship as possible. While the small quarters may be laughable, they are not practical for families. Disney took note of this detail when launching their cruise line.
Disney Cruise Line staterooms are among the largest in the cruise industry, allowing plenty of space for your family to relax and enjoy your space without feeling cramped. You’ll enjoy a fun room that is perfect for relaxing between activities. Are you wondering what to pack on your cruise vacation and how to organize when packing? Check out this guide to packing for your Disney cruise!
If you love meeting your favorite Disney friends, you are in for the vacation of a lifetime on a Disney Cruise. Be sure to keep a camera and autograph book nearby because you never know what princess, pirate, or other Disney character you may meet while exploring the ship. Not to mention you’ll have the chance to pose with Mickey Mouse, Minnie Mouse, and the rest of the gang in their sailing and beach attire when you dock at Castaway Cay!
Private Island Time
As if a Disney Cruise did not seem enticing enough, Guests sailing to the Caribbean get to enjoy Disney’s private island, Castaway Cay. Not only does docking at a remote island mean pristine beaches and privacy from other vacationers, but it also means you get an exclusive experience unique to Disney Cruise Line. This unique experience means the island won’t be overcrowded like you may have experienced with other lines, as Disney Cruise Ships are the only ships docking.
If you’ve never considered booking a Disney Cruise vacation, why not reach out to a certified Disney travel planner to explore options? We promise you will enjoy the vacation of a lifetime!
