Day 1 – Boarding

It was finally time to get on the boat!  We woke up super early (we were still on East Coast time), so Nancy decided to go for a run to the beach while the girls and I headed to the market at the Hyatt to grab some coffee and breakfast.  Nancy’s first stop was Mission Beach. read more

Disney Cruise, Planning

You’ve booked your Disney Cruise — now it’s approaching your check-in day and you wonder what will happen.  The most important thing you need to know before checking in for your cruise is that you must be paid in full before you begin the check in process.  Once you have paid in full for your cruise, you can start checking in.  Your check-in date will depend on how many Disney Cruises you have taken.  If this is your first cruise, your check-in day will be 75 days from your sailing date.  If you have taken 1-4 cruises (this makes you a Silver Castaway Club member), your date will be 90 days out.  If you have taken 5-9 cruises (this makes you a Gold Castaway Club member), your date will be 105 days out.  If you have taken 10 or more (a Platinum Castaway Club member), your date will be 120 days out.  read more
