Disney Cruise Line Updates Infant Policy

Disney Cruise Line has just announced an update to their current infant policy which goes into effect immediately.

For all new bookings of sailings taking place after Jan. 1, 2015, the minimum age to sail aboard any of the Disney Cruise Line ships will increase from 12 weeks to 6 months. For select itineraries including Transatlantic, Hawai’i and Panama Canal, the minimum age will increase to 1 year of age.

Guests with existing reservations to sail in 2015 with a child between the ages of 12 weeks and 1 year will be unaffected by this change as only new bookings will be subject to the new age limits.

For additional information on this change, please contact your Magic Maker®.

Cruising is Child’s Play with New Service on Disney Cruise Line

Disney Cruise Line Babies Travel Lite Enjoying a Disney Cruise Line® vacation will soon be easier than ever for those traveling with infants and toddlers. Thanks to a cruise industry-first service, you will be able to have baby supplies, including diapers, baby food, infant formula and specialty travel items delivered directly to your staterooms!

Beginning March 15, those preparing to sail on Disney Cruise Line® with little ones will have access to an online service that allows them to order baby supplies in advance of your cruise and have them delivered to your stateroom. The new service is exclusive for Disney Cruise Line® Guests and provided by Babies Travel Lite, an online retailer offering more than 1,000 brand-name baby products.

The new delivery service is just one of the many products and services available to those traveling with children under three. Guests also have access to a host of onboard services to facilitate traveling with toddlers in tow:

Diaper Genie units, cribs and playpens are available complimentary upon request from the stateroom host/hostess for use during the cruise.
Bottle warmers, bottle sanitizers and strollers are available complimentary at Guest Services for use during the cruise.
At Castaway Cay, Disney’s private island in the Bahamas, wagons are available to facilitate navigating the island’s sandy beaches.
Baby supplies are available for purchase on the ships.

These amenities are the perfect complement to Disney’s infant-care center at sea, Flounder’s Reef Nursery. The nursery features an “under the sea” soft play area themed to Disney’s “The Little Mermaid” where children twelve weeks to thirty-six months can enjoy themselves under the watchful eyes of trained Disney caregivers. Mickey Mouse or another Disney pal may swing by for a surprise visit involving fun and games!

Also for infants and toddlers to enjoy is Mickey’s Splash Zone, a water playground inspired by The Sorcerer’s Apprentice from Disney’s “Fantasia.” This extension to Mickey’s Pool features star- and moon-shaped interactive fountains, soft play surface and whimsical splash zones, creating an inviting environment for children not yet toilet trained and in swim diapers.

Guests sailing on seven-night cruises can enjoy some “together” time with their little ones during Family Time Sessions at Flounder’s Reef Nursery. Families have the opportunity to explore the nursery and meet the team of counselors who supervise the children.

Also on seven-night cruises, Guests can enjoy Toddler Time at Disney’s Oceaneer Club and at Mickey’s Splash Zone. Families can join their little ones and explore the world together as they participate in musical games and fine motor skill exercises led by Disney’s youth activities counselors.

A leader in the family cruise segment, Disney Cruise Line delivers a cruise experience that every member of the family feels was created for their own individual vacation needs and wants.
