My wife and I love the Disney Cruise Line and that applies when traveling with or without our kids. This time, we traveled without children and we had an amazing trip in all respects.

Embarkation:

We flew into Orlando the night before the cruise to avoid any possible problems with flight delays. I highly suggest not flying the day of the cruise because flight delays do happen. We stayed at Disney for the night and when we checked in, the pickup time for the Disney Bus for the following day was in our room. Disney Cruise Line picked up our luggage from the room and it was transferred to our cabin on the ship without us having to worry about it whatsoever. The Disney Bus to the ship was very comfortable and only took a bit over an hour. When we got to the Port we "zipped" through security without a wait. As I had just reached Platinum status with the cruise line (over 10 trips), I was able to check in through the Concierge Desk and check in was quick and very pleasant. We immediately boarded the ship and as is Disney's custom, we were then welcomed aboard as they clap and announce the name of your family as you step aboard the ship. It is a very nice touch and you immediately feel welcomed and special. From that moment forward, each and every member of the Disney staff go out of their way to make you feel special. Everyone has a smile on their face and wants to do whatever they can to make your trip magical. Read more
