What are you FAVORITE Disney Cruise Tips & Tricks?!

[jonc]

The walls inside the staterooms are magnetic as well.

Woah you can request to be close to the stage for dinner? We’re going on the Wish for the first time in May and will be bringing our 4 almost 5 year old! They would absolutely love to see Elsa and Olaf up close!

Disneeds talks about the Mickey bar sandwich too 😅. Good info, thanks!

[christineboyce]

You sound more like Mr. Hanky than Mickey😂

[DisneyMom]

You actually have 30 days after your cruise to claim a place holder. You can absolutely call DCL within that time frame and still get up to two place holders. FYI

I'm glad I found out that paying for your cruise using Target Red Card to buy Disney gift cards to pay for your cruise, you pay 5% LESS cuz you get 5% off using Target's Red Card! Since Disney cruises are so expensive, you can save a few hundred dollars!

We are going on the Wonder when it comes to Australia. So disappointed the character calls weren’t available for Australia and New Zealand

[vickimeaney]

I found you from watching Legglife they are very fond of you. This is my first time watching you. You both are great I have subscribed.

Love your tips! You guys are hilarious 😂 Last time we sailed we couldn’t tip on the app, not sure if they stopped or if it was just something on our cruise. Just ordered the drink coffee and cruise shirts. So excited to wear them on our next cruise!

[dotinspirational]

You guys are great, thoroughly enjoyed your video thank you!

I prefer to tip in cash as you never know what Disney is doing with the electronic tipping. It may be like what Grubhub or another food delivery service was doing, where tips added were going to the driver's but not actually being added on top of what they would normally get, instead you were subsidizing the payments that Grubhub was giving (i.e. the drivers were getting the same amount whether you tipped or not, but if you tipped you were basically helping Grubhub and not the drivers. Wouldn't be surprised if Cruise ships do the same with their mostly 3rd world staffers (not the American cast members who I'm sure get treated better).

We've been cruising DCL since 2012 and only recently realized that Cove and Vista food is included, and I had no idea the coffee punch card is good for future cruises - good tip!! I also got a good tip which we will be using in our upcoming trip on the Fantasy - in addition to the pop-up hamper, bring a collapsable box (you know those cubed fabric ones?) for shoes and pool stuff. Something to note about the magnets on the walls and doors, they have to be the strong magnets in order to hold anything other than a hat or lanyard. Ours were just sliding down the walls! 😆
Hot tip - before or during the Pirate show, if you hang out by the elevators, you might get a quick interaction with Jack Sparrow. It's happened twice now. I go head-to-toe pirate costume, and the first time, I got a hat tip and a "M'Lady..." and the second time, he tip-toed around my son like he was vermin. LOL

Great tips and tricks. On our first cruise, we brought a wooden anchor and permanent marker and had the characters sign the anchor. It is now a cool decoration in our bathroom.

[Sezbez]

Great vlog, thank you! Quick question, are there any packaged snacks are can take off the ship? Can we take our own packaged snacks onboard at embarkation?

[MrJames-]

A tip on the tip for the place holder... It is good for 2 years from the day you purchase it. so if you pay for it on night 1, it's good till that date... if you wait till the last night, you give yourself 7 more days, for that just in case, wiggle room. =]

[michaelvandergrift]

magnetic hooks work on the walls as well. They use bleach on the towels when they wash them so if you have clothing that might be harmed by bleach, beware. Learned that the hard way on a rainy trip to Castaway Cay. Pop up hamper in my Amazon cart. Thanks for that one! Have always had to call DCL to use our placeholder for the next cruise. If there's a way to use it on the website, please share. Regarding sharing tables at dinner. You may or may not have great table mates. Stay magical regardless. Hope to see ya'll on board one of these days.

[JOEKPOND]

You can also make table requests through the app now. Still not guaranteed, but it is easy to do.

[RohdeFam]

I love any talk of Disney cruise!
When I sailed in December on the Wonder, the way to do a placeholder was only through the app. I’m sure guest services could help, but the future cruise desk was always empty! I always book my placeholder on the last night of my cruise because your placeholder ends 2 years from the date you booked it. I figured that there may be a cruise in the future that I really want and if I did my placeholder even the day before I may miss it. Of course, you don’t know 2 years in advance, but I think the more wiggle room, the better. 😊

Recently did a 7 day cruise on the Fantasy and tried the room service cookies…terrible. The one I purchased in sweet shop was soft, warm, and tasted delicious.
