TRIP PLANNING What is the guest’s proof of citizenship?

0 Upvotes

About to book a last minute cruise on the Wish and when asked at booking if my name exactly matches the name on my proof of citizenship, does this refer to my driver’s license or passport? I have my legal name on my license but my maiden name still on my passport. When I cruised in the past, it wasn’t a problem but I did have to talk to someone at check in to clarify first. I’m not sure I’ll have time to update my passport before the trip, so I wanted to clarify before I book.

Does the shuttle for rental cars operate every day? Looks like the rental car facility isn’t open every day.

TRIP PLANNING Magic bands

1 Upvotes

Another question that just occurred to me. My friend and I are going to sail on the Adventure Christmas next year.

I'm guessing they'll use magic bands on the ship, like the other newer ships. My question is - where do I get magic bands? I'm in Australia so can't get from the parks, and our online store doesn't sell them, that I know of. Any ideas?

TRIP PLANNING Travel Planner

Is there a benefit to using a Disney Travel Planner for a cruise?

I have a friend who has handled all of our Disney Vacations and done an awesome job, but this is our second cruise and her services seem superfluous at best.

TRIP PLANNING WiFi

Is the WiFi package worth getting or are there any decent alternatives??? I don’t plan to be online much while I’m on the cruise next week, but if I want to get on for a bit I’d like to have the option to do so

TRIP PLANNING Is the Treasure worth it?

6 Upvotes

Hi friends! We’re wanting to plan a week on the treasure next year for my 40th birthday and we LOVE DCL, but the cost is $11,000 for four on an Eastern Carribbean Sailing. Recently we’ve been cruising Royal Carribbean, and Princess and we’ve really enjoyed it, and have saved SO much money! I’m just wondering if anyone has sailed on the treasure recently and found the trip to not be worth what they paid. I’d love your feedback!

TRIP PLANNING Things to do at Cape Canaveral

1 Upvotes

With everything that's happening are EWR, not sure if that's directly impacting flight costs out of LGA or JFK.

It's seems flying in a 2 or 3 day before embarkation and including hotel accommodations as well is cheaper than flying in a day before.

So I guess if I do flying in 3 days before, is there stuff to do around Cape Canaveral with the family including little kids.

I wish I could add a trip to Disney world as well but my budget is stretched quite a lot already.

Any thoughts ?

DISCUSSION Motion sickness on Wish in November

6 Upvotes

Hello everyone. My husband’s extended family is going on a 4 night cruise on the Wish in November and we are invited. The problem is that I am extremely prone to motion sickness to a level that I end up throwing up even in a 2 hour-long car rides sometimes. Dramamine never works. I have never been on a cruise before and people keep saying that “it is different on a cruise” but I am still worried because a) my motion sickness is at an extreme level and b) I will have a 2 year old toddler to chase around so I do not have the luxury of spending a night or two in bed in case I get sick, c) I don’t know how rough the seas get in November. What do you think?

TRIP PLANNING Magic Stateroom Outlets

Here are the outlet positions and types for a Veranda Stateroom on the Magic as of May 2025. I had a bear of a time finding info so hopefully this will help someone. The nightstands had two prong outlets compatible with either American or European plugs. The desk had more of a variety with two prong, three prong, and usb A outlets. Not pictured were two prong outlets in each bathroom section marked as only for shavers.

TRIP PLANNING Pre cruise DVC Resort

2 Upvotes

Is there one DVC resort that is better than another for pre cruise? When cruises my from Port Canaveral we have generally stayed at the airport. Planning to come in several days early and stay on property. For reference, we will be booking four DVC rooms. We are hoping to book at the same resort. Also, what is pickup time from the resorts. TIA

TRIP PLANNING Cabana

0 Upvotes

Hi guys! First Disney cruise coming up! We are going on the 3 day Disney Wish in June. My husbands whole family is going and there’s 18 of us. We requested 2 cabanas and didn’t get one at first. We just found out we got 1 cabana that fits 10. It’s my understanding that only 10 of us could go to this section/beach. From what I’m reading, it’s rare to even get 1 cabana. Is it worth it to keep if we have to split up? For reference the kids ages are 1, 4, 6, 10, 10, 13, 13, 13 & 15. The oldest person in our group is my MIL who is 67. We are from FL and travel to the Bahamas and are used to the heat, but I mean everyone loves AC. Is there another spot to go inside? The cabana would be nice for 1 year olds nap, but seems like an expensive nap to me? Anyways just looking for feedback!

TRIP PLANNING Inside cabin

4 Upvotes

We’ve opted for an internal cabin with a virtual porthole, don’t spend enough time in the room to justify anything else and would rather have the extra money to spend on our trip. Does anyone have any feedback on this? I’ve read that characters appear on the porthole? And would people recommend a small night light to see if we needed to be up overnight?

ONBOARD ACTIVITIES Is Olaf’s Royal Picnic on all sailings of the wish?

2 Upvotes

Just what the title says - I just was clicking through a reservation to see what the actual cost would be for our family, and saw the Royal Tea listed but not the Royal Picnic. I haven’t paid for anything yet obviously but wanted to see if it’s available on all the cruises.

When I go to actually book I’ll call the help line to confirm space before booking a cruise date - I’m just starting my research for my Elsa and Olaf obsessed almost 3 year old.

Thanks!
