Disney ships are the first ships since the 1950s to feature two funnels.

Many cabins on Disney ships feature faux steamer trunks for storage and efficient split-use bathrooms.

There are no casinos on board Disney ships, and smoking areas are strictly limited.


With the launch of Disney Cruise Line in 1998, families were offered yet another reason to take a cruise. The magic of a Walt Disney resort vacation plus the romance of a sea voyage are a tempting combination, especially for adults who discovered Disney movies and the Mickey Mouse Club as children. Mixed with traditional shipboard activities, who can resist scheduled opportunities for the young and young-at-heart to interact with their favorite Disney characters?

Choose If ...

You want to cruise with the entire family -- mom, dad, the kids, and grandparents.

You enjoy having kids around. (There are adults-only areas to retreat to when the fun wears off.)

Your family enjoys Disney's theme parks and can't get enough wholesome entertainment.

Don't Choose If ...

You want to spend a lot of quality time bonding with your kids. Your kids may not want to leave the fun activities.

You want to dine in peace and quiet. The dining rooms and buffet can be boisterous.

You want to gamble. There are no casinos, so you'll have to settle for bingo.

Silhouettes and abstract images of Mickey Mouse are cleverly hidden by Disney's creative designers throughout the ship. See how many Hidden Mickeys you can spot -- it's a terrific family game. Another favorite pursuit is autograph collecting; characters and crew members alike are happy to oblige. You can buy autograph books on the ships, but the gift shops won't open until after you sail. Drop in at a Disney store before your cruise and purchase them for your kids; they'll appreciate being prepared from the get-go.

Prior to sailing, go online to reserve shore excursions, a table at the adults-only Palo restaurant, and babysitting in the nursery. Children can also be pre-registered for youth programs, and adults can make spa appointments.
