Why Disney Cruise Line?

From Magic Maker® Jennifer Lennox

Of all of the beautiful ships and amazing itineraries in the cruising industry from which to choose, what makes Disney Cruise Line® special?

I have been lucky enough to discover the Disney difference for myself. I traveled with my family, which consisted of my husband, our daughters, Brynne and SeiJin, who were respectively eight years old and nearly two and myself. From the moment we saw the port, with the giant mouse ears waiting for us, we knew we would be experiencing something special. We boarded the Disney Wonder®, breathless with excitement, and were greeted and welcomed by name as we entered. This would be a vacation to remember!

As part of our vacation package, we had just enjoyed three nights in nearby Walt Disney World®, and were now to experience four nights on one of the most magical ships afloat! From the floating cinema, running brand new movies, to the unique dining choices in which we were treated royally by the same attentive staff each evening, though in a new restaurant each time, to the jaw dropping and side splitting Broadway style shows, we were hard pressed to take it all in! The family-oriented game shows had us itching to participate, winning a pin for one daughter’s collection. And when my “big girl” was doing something that my little one could not, we danced to a Playhouse Disney Party, and explored the ship on our own, finding stolen moments with characters, such as Lilo, who sat and held her in a chair on an out-of-the-way deck.

Ah, but the very best part, in my opinion, was what awaited us on Castaway Cay! Never in all of my travels had I seen such unspoiled paradise. Disney’s private island is everything you would expect, and so much that you can’t even imagine! We snorkeled and made sandcastles, cheered the crabs in the crab races, dribbled ice cream down our bathing suits from the included-and-all-you-can-eat cones, and were photographed with Mickey, Minnie and Daisy dressed for fun at the beach! And there were so many activities that we didn’t even have time to discover!

What makes Disney different? There is the well-known Disney service, the unparalleled attention to detail, the cutting edge programs for your smallest sailors, entertainment for cruisers of all ages, as well as quiet areas for adults only, and so very much more!

Let Off to Neverland Travel® help you make your dream cruise vacation a reality! The attention to detail that you will find with our Magic Makers will give you peace of mind and our own special magic before you ever board the ship!

Disney Cruise Line – New Option: Dine and Play

Here’s a great new offering for families assigned to second dining! The Dine and Play program allows children to get their meals quicker and adults to check-in a child for Youth Activities without leaving the dining room.

Dine and Play

  • Available on both the Disney Magic® and Disney Wonder® Cruise Ship.
  • Offered during second dining in any of the main dining rooms – Animator’s Palate, Lumieres, Tritons and Parrot Cay.
  • Open to children ages 3-12.

Here’s how it works: You arrive in the dining room and inform the server that your child would like to participate in Dine and Play. The dining room team brings the child’s meal first while serving the adults at a more leisurely pace.

About 45 minutes after seating begins, Youth Activities Counselors arrive in the dining room and sign in your child to their respective groups in Disney’s Oceaneer Club or Disney’s Oceaneer Lab, eliminating the need for you to escort your child to Deck 5.

Adults are then able to enjoy the full dining experience with the knowledge that their child is having a great time in a safe, fun and comfortable environment.

Introducing Disney Dream and Disney Fantasy – Disney Cruise Lines Newest Ships

Disney Dream and Disney Fantasy

It’s official! The newest ships in the Disney Cruise Line® fleet now have names – Disney Dream and Disney Fantasy.

Bob Iger, President and CEO of The Walt Disney Company, announced the official names today at the 2009 Annual Meeting of Shareholders in Oakland, Calif. The Disney Dream is scheduled to launch in 2011, with the Disney Fantasy following soon after in 2012.

Like the Disney Magic® and Disney Wonder® Cruise Ships before them, the names of the two new ships were chosen with care to celebrate Disney’s unique heritage – creating incredible worlds of fantasy where your dreams really do come true.

Walt Disney Imagineers and shipbuilders have been working full steam ahead since the fleet expansion was first announced in 2007. On March 2, 2009, construction on both ships began at the Meyer Werft shipyard in Papenburg, Germany with a special steel-cutting ceremony.

The new ships will more than double the passenger capacity for Disney Cruise Line and create even more family cruise options for you to enjoy.
