Podcasts about Disney Cruise Line

On today's Disney Podcast, we are comparing a 4-night Disney Cruise to a 4-night Disney World vacation to see which one you should choose for your next trip to see the Mouse. This episode is Part 2, where we take the perspective of why a Disney World vacation is the better choice in terms of attractions, entertainment, autonomy over schedule, options and more. On our last episode, we argued the opposite perspective of why a Disney Cruise is, in fact, the better choice in this debate. This was a fun one to record. Enjoy!

Sarah is a travel advisor, and she brought 19 family members on the Disney Wonder to Alaska: grandparents, grandkids, teens, and everyone in between. She walks Sam through how she got the whole group to Vancouver, why she let everyone choose their own adventure in port, and what it's really like dining as a party of 19.

Wondering whether Disney Cruise Line concierge level is worth the cost? This year, I sailed in an interior stateroom on the Disney Fantasy and a one-bedroom concierge suite on the Disney Wish, and in this episode I break down exactly what concierge includes, how the experience differs between ships, and who should actually book it. I cover everything that comes with concierge: the private lounge, priority boarding and debarkation, character meet-and-greets without the lines, hot breakfast room service, complimentary wifi, and the dedicated concierge host team that handles things for you throughout the sailing. I also compare the concierge lounge on the Wish versus the Fantasy because they are genuinely different experiences, and that matters when you are deciding what to book. I also give you my honest take on whether concierge is worth it, including why I loved it but wouldn't book it for my own family right now.

Castaway Cay, Lookout Cay, then Castaway Cay again. First-time guest Courtney joins us straight from her classroom to talk about her family's five-night Disney Fantasy "Double Duo Dip." It was three private island days with two little kids, a nap after every beach day, and one very determined top-bunk daredevil. In this episode: Why a Castaway–Lookout–Castaway itinerary lets families with young kids spread out the beach time without skipping naps The smallest Fantasy interior stateroom, the first bunk-bed sailing, and the stateroom host who talked Courtney into it Pirate makeovers, a Captain Hook meet-and-greet that created a superfan, and timing naps around Pirate Night The picky-eater verdict on the new Kraft mac and cheese The black truffle pierogies at Animator's Palate Castaway Cay 5K with a jogging stroller, bike rentals, and the missing Lookout Cay 5K medal "My son has talked about Captain Hook nonstop since. He refers to me as Mr. Smee all the time and he thinks he's Captain Hook." — Courtney Connect with Courtney:Courtney is a travel advisor with Kingdom Seekers Travel.

Melissa flew all the way from Ireland for a late-season, adults-only sailing to Alaska on the Disney Wonder — six DCL sailings and nineteen cruises deep, and this one still delivered bears, whales, dueling pianos, and one gut-punch moment from home she wasn't expecting. In this episode: Why a late-September Alaska sailing means an almost entirely adult ship — and everything that changes onboard Chasing bears in Ketchikan and sled puppies at a Juneau dog camp she almost didn't book Real vegan dining tips across the fleet, from crew curries to a Palo brunch workaround The Shutters photo-package trick that can save your travel companions money A Vancouver hotel booking gone sideways, and the lesson in it for third-party bookings A moving, unscripted moment about staying connected to loved ones back home while at sea She's not a DVC member. She doesn't even really know what DVC is, but we always joke she'd be able to talk herself out of Alcatraz... she was sitting there, she already had a drink.

Royal Caribbean's Oasis of the Seas turned back to Nassau to evacuate two critically ill passengers, including a 7-year-old child, delaying its return to Cape Liberty in Bayonne by about eight hours, cancelling the next sailing's Port Canaveral call, and triggering flight reimbursements and onboard credit for guests. San Diego has opened its busiest cruise season in more than 15 years, with 183 scheduled calls and more than 700,000 passengers expected, led by a new 47-call Royal Caribbean homeport program and a Disney Cruise Line agreement that adds Disney Magic alongside Disney Wonder through at least 2031. And Hurtigruten has recovered 1,002 bottles of Barolo from Italian winery Rivetto after 12 months stored 34 metres beneath the Arctic Ocean off Kirkenes, with the Arctic Barolo to be served exclusively aboard its 10 Norwegian coast ships.

We're sharing the top ten things we wish we'd understood before our Walt Disney World vacations, with plenty of reminders we still need today.We kick things off by talking about why you can't do everything and why that shouldn't determine whether your trip was a success. From choosing one priority for each family member to building backup plans for weather and ride closures, we discuss how a little flexibility can keep disappointment from taking over your vacation.Then we tackle the practical lessons, including an overdue investment in comfortable shoes, the value of midday pool breaks, and choosing a resort that fits how you actually travel. Whether you're spending every minute in the parks or making relaxation the main event, your hotel should match your plans and budget.Food gets its moment, too, as we explain why scheduling every meal can eat up your time and why the dining plan deserves a closer look before you commit. We also cover learning the basics before arrival, setting aside money for what matters to you, and letting your family's version of fun guide your decisions.Finally, we share why working with a travel advisor is our biggest takeaway, including how Amy with MEI-Travel helps us compare options, handle bookings, and find available savings while leaving us free to enjoy planning.Whether you're preparing for your first visit or your fiftieth, these lessons are about making your vacation feel like yours. Less pressure, more flexibility, and happier feet? That's a magical place to start. And yes, permission to skip someone else's must-do is part of the package.

Last time, Disney Cruise Line gave us the ideas. This time, we're taking over. In Part 2 of our discussion about the future of themed Disney cruises, Kevin, Danny, Eli, and Rachel put on their Armchair Imagineering hats and pitch the specialty sailings THEY would create for Disney Cruise Line. And nobody knew what anyone else was bringing to the table. Rachel comes prepared with two very different possibilities: a Taylor Swift-inspired sailing packed with music, themed nights, and plenty of opportunities for Swifties to spend money—and "C23," essentially D23 at Sea, complete with Imagineers, Disney history, archival material, models, panels, and plenty of exclusive merchandise. Then things get nostalgic. Danny transforms an entire Disney cruise ship into a celebration of extinct Disney attractions, reimagining everything from the atrium and restaurants to onboard entertainment with tributes to Horizons, Mr. Toad's Wild Ride, Kitchen Kabaret, Spirit of Aloha, and other pieces of Disney history. Eli takes a trip into another dimension with a Twilight Zone-inspired voyage filled with lost Disney objects, retired attractions, classic animatronics, and some wonderfully strange possibilities. Finally, Kevin pitches Adventures on the High Seas—a four-night sailing where every day becomes a completely different Disney adventure. Guests receive an Adventure Passport and become part of the story through family challenges, entertainment, activities, and experiences that can change from year to year. Four hosts. Several very different cruise concepts. One imaginary unlimited Disney budget. Which one would YOU book? It's time for our ideas to set sail. Episode 647 | The Future of Themed Disney Cruises – Part 2  

This week on Wander With Milford, we break down four travel updates that could affect your next vacation. Disney After Hours tickets are now available to the general public, while Universal Orlando's Skull Island: Reign of Kong remains temporarily closed with no confirmed reopening date. Disney Cruise Line has also expanded select Placeholder savings to as much as 25 percent, and Virgin Voyages is offering up to $400 in Sailor Loot on qualifying Brilliant Lady sailings. But these offers come with restrictions. Milford explains who qualifies, what the headlines leave out, and why the cheapest advertised deal may not deliver the best overall value. Topics include: • Disney After Hours tickets • The temporary Reign of Kong closure • Disney Cruise Line Placeholder savings • Virgin Voyages Sailor Loot • Brilliant Lady qualifying sailings • Fare restrictions and promotion deadlines Before booking, let Wander With Milford compare the dates, restrictions, and complete vacation price so you know what the deal is actually worth.

Fuel surcharge clauses are back in focus for passengers sailing from Port Canaveral, where Carnival Cruise Line retains contractual authority to add up to $9 per person per day and Royal Caribbean up to $12, including on some fully paid bookings, while Disney Cruise Line's published U.S. terms show no active supplement. In Alaska, the Alaska State Fire Marshal's Office has declared the dock at Whittier's Chugach Glacier Gateway Cruise Terminal a total loss after a Sept. 14 fire; no injuries were reported, Norwegian Jade shifted its embarkation across the water, and the Oct. 3 commissioning of the USS Ted Stevens moved to the Holland America Princess terminal. And the Port of San Diego has opened its largest cruise season in more than 15 years, with 183 scheduled ship calls and more than 700,000 passengers expected, driven by new Royal Caribbean homeport operations and Disney's first two-ship deployment from the port.

Today we are very excited to have Becky joining us from up near Boston to share her Land/Sea trip to Walt Disney World and on DCL this past summer! We start off by discussing her stay at Disney's Fort Wilderness Cabins, renting a golf cart, enjoying the theme parks (in spite of the rain!), an amazing dessert party, an amazing Blizzard Beach day and more! Then, we hear about her family's first Disney Cruise on the Disney Fantasy! We talk about embarkation, dining, the kids' clubs, shows, a fun trivia win, and much, much more! Were these theme park fans won over by Disney Cruise Line? We hope you can continue the conversation with us this week in the Be Our Guest Podcast Clubhouse at www.beourguestpodcast.com/clubhouse!

Donna from New Jersey joins me to share about her family's first cruise - a 7-night Alaska sailing aboard Royal Caribbean's Anthem of the Seas! Donna traveled with her husband and two teenager kids, ages 13 and 15, plus her sister's family, including her 18-year-old nephew, for a summer 2026 adventure cruising round-trip from Seattle.We're talking about what it's like to cruise Alaska with teenagers, what they loved about Anthem of the Seas, how to pack for unpredictable Alaska weather, and the excursions that made this trip unforgettable — from whale watching in Sitka and riding the White Pass Railroad in Skagway to seeing Dawes Glacier and visiting a summer musher's camp in Juneau. Plus, Donna shares why, if you can swing it, she believes a balcony is a MUST for an Alaska cruise — especially when the scenery is this spectacular.This episode is available to watch on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@kelseygravesIf you'd like to share about your trip on the podcast, email me at: kelsey@triptalespodcast.comBuy Me A Coffee: https://buymeacoffee.com/kelseygravesFollow me on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/kelsey_gravesFollow me on TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@mskelseygravesJoin us in the Trip Tales Podcast Community Facebook Group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/1323687329158879Mentioned in this episode: - Alaska Cruise- Royal Caribbean's Anthem of the Seas: The Key, Port Valet- On ship cruise activities: iFly, ping-pong, pickleball, bumper cars, sushi making, The Solarium, - Seattle Marriott Waterfront- SEATTLE: Puget Sound, Pike Place Market, the original Starbucks, The Great Wheel, Bite Society cookies- How to pack for Alaska- Inside passage vs. outside passage- SITKA: Free shuttle, cute harbor town, shopping, restaurants, Sitka Sound, bald eagles, Sitka National Historical Park, Tongass National Forest, Totem Trail, whale watching tour with Captain Brad, sea lions, - SKAGWAY: Alaska Shore Excursions: White Pass Railroad - Dawes Glacier, Endicott Arm- JUNEAU: Summer Musher's Camp, - VICTORIATrip Tales is a travel podcast sharing real vacation stories and trip itineraries for family travel, couples getaways, cruises, and all-inclusive resorts.

We went live with Benji from LaughingPlace.com to get the full scoop on the 25th Disney Vacation Club Member Cruise — this year sailing Copenhagen, Skagen, and Stavanger aboard the Disney Dream. Turns out it's less D23 spectacle, more "mini D23 at sea," and yes, there's a John Stamos karaoke story. In this episode: Why Benji calls a DVC Member Cruise "a mini D23 at sea." Inside the Norway and Denmark itinerary, including Tivoli Gardens, the Little Mermaid statue, and a castle opera performance. A rare public talk from Imagineer Michel den Dulk, plus a Halloween deck party with Nina West, Susan Egan, and Jodi Benson. The DVC gift and merchandise culture, and Benji's number one packing tip. DVC Member Cruise versus D23: who each one is actually for.  "I discovered that it is kind of like a mini D23 at sea." -Benji Book your next Disney vacation with our show sponsor - We Do Travel Right!

We put a single microphone on the table and asked one question: was our Adventures by Disney river cruise through Holland and Belgium actually worth it? What we got back wasn't a travel review — it was four completely different answers about why people travel at all. In this episode: Why one lifelong "pool girl" pushed herself onto a bike through Kinderdijk's 19 windmills — and what she said when it was over The friendship-bracelet trick one traveler uses to turn total strangers into breakfast companions An unfiltered review from a family of six that couldn't agree on whether they even had a good time What a 5-guide, 119-traveler ratio actually buys you on an ABD sailing Two stories from a veteran adventure guide that explain what this job really is A real look at the Holland and Belgium river cruise itinerary "A vacation is where you go to stop.

We just hit 100 episodes! To celebrate, we're sharing our favorite things at Walt Disney World! We start by ranking all four parks, and Chip and I don't agree. Then we share our top three hotels, plus the budget resorts we'd pick in each category. From there we get into the best ride queues, the resort smells we can't forget, our go-to Disney Springs stops, and the quick service meals we'd eat today if we could. We keep it honest, because a favorite isn't always the right pick for every family. My favorite resort is Riviera, but it's not where I usually stay with my kids, and I explain why. You'll also hear which queue we'd skip every time and the resort scents we can't stop thinking about. We wrap up with a Santa dinner at The Cake Bake Shop that costs a family of four over $900, plus our favorite character meals and the surprise character meets we love most.

881 · The Magic of Disney Animation: An E-Ticket Without a Ride at Disney's Hollywood StudiosThe Magic of Disney Animation gives Disney's Hollywood Studios a new way to explore how the movies we love are made. But I kept coming back to a bigger question: what makes a place feel like a studio when the movies are no longer being made there?This week, join me as we discover what's inside, which details deserve a closer look, and why different people in your family might love completely different parts of the same experience. We'll connect it to the original animation tour and explore why I think this is an E-ticket experience without needing to be an E-ticket ride.A studio open house: How Once Upon a Studio connects the experience, with characters taking over and artwork coming to life.Hidden details worth finding: A Lost and Found with references to Atlantis: The Lost Empire and Treasure Planet, plus a chandelier whose paintbrushes were individually named by Disney artists.Inside the Animator's Office: Personal objects, familiar tools, and unexpected references that bring you closer to the people behind the films.Characters with a purpose: Why Mulan is in Story, Rapunzel is in Layout, and Goofy has somehow been entrusted with Lighting at Off the Page!An unexpected Mulan moment: The conversation that brought back a memory of my son and changed how I think about character encounters.Olaf Draws! and Eric Goldberg: The thread connecting Robin Williams in Back to Neverland to drawing Genie, and why my own attempt came with a written apology.Room to play and discover: Mary Blair's influence on Drawn to Wonderland, and why I'd leave yourself time to wander.There's history, humor, practical advice, and a drawing that probably raises more questions than it answers. What part of The Magic of Disney Animation would you most want to spend time exploring, and why?

On today's Disney Podcast, we are talking about why a bad day at Disney World is still better than a good day pretty much anywhere else. From nostalgia to the Disney Magic, this is everything we believe comes together to make the Disney theme park experience so amazing and memorable, even when problems and frustrations pop up from time to time.

Landon's back in the driver's seat for another Matt vs. TJ battle. Like George Costanza, this week we're "doing the opposite." Who won the Fantasy Draft and did Matt make it to Disneyland??? FIND OUT NEXT WEEK!!

Disney Cruise Line may be looking beyond the traditional Disney cruise. A recent Disney Cruise Line survey asked guests to rate several potential themed sailings, including a music festival at sea, an ESPN fantasy sports cruise, a special Castaway Club sailing, and even a cruise built around Disney pin trading. So naturally, we put the ideas to the MOW crew. Which ones would we actually book? Which could Rachel realistically sell? And which ideas should probably stay on the survey? Then things take a very different turn. As Disney and WWE continue expanding their relationship, reports suggest that some type of WWE experience aboard Disney Cruise Line could potentially make sense down the road. With Eli and Danny at the table, you know we weren't going to simply mention that idea and move on. What would WWE at sea actually look like? Live wrestling? Legends and current stars? Meet-and-greets? Exclusive merchandise? Themed bars and drinks? And perhaps most importantly: would wrestling fans actually pay Disney Cruise Line prices for it? This conversation went exactly where you would expect a Magic Our Way conversation to go—which is also why our original plan became a two-part show. In Part 2, we stop evaluating Disney's ideas and start pitching our own. What themed cruise would get YOU aboard a Disney ship?

Big ships, private islands, and just a few days to get away. Which short cruise is actually worth booking? John, Dayna, and Jess compare the best weekend cruises for families, couples, and adults looking for a quick escape. From Royal Caribbean's Utopia of the Seas and Wonder of the Seas to Disney Cruise Line and adults-only Virgin Voyages, we break down the food, entertainment, atmosphere, and value that make each experience different. In this episode: Royal Caribbean's Utopia and Wonder, plus the appeal of Perfect Day at CocoCay. Disney Wish vs. Disney Dream for a short family cruise. Why Virgin Voyages is a favorite for an adults-only getaway. Celebrity Reflection's quieter vibe and MSC Yacht Club's suite experience. Short cruise options from Norwegian, Carnival, and Margaritaville at Sea. The tradeoffs of three- and four-night cruises, from limited itineraries to seasonal weather. Plus, we share 10 favorite cruise destinations, including Santorini, St. Lucia, Alaska, and a few places that left us wanting to return for an entire week. Planning your first cruise or squeezing in one more getaway? Find the sailing that fits your vacation style, then follow Where We Roam for more honest cruise reviews and travel advice.

Rebecca joins us to recap her family's 5-night Bahamian sailing on the Disney Destiny — a true multigenerational trip spanning three connected staterooms: her husband and their two daughters, her in-laws, and her sister- and brother-in-law's family, all sailing together. A crew member told them the ship was close to capacity, with an estimated 1,800 kids on board, but the crowds weren't what made this cruise memorable. In this episode: How they coordinated three connected staterooms across three generations, and the MagicBand glitch that nearly derailed embarkation day Why her husband was a self-described "reluctant cruiser" and what finally won him over The night her mother-in-law unexpectedly ended up a contestant on Match Your Mate, and became a ship celebrity for the rest of the cruise Which rotational dining restaurant was the runaway favorite, and which one missed for their group Castaway Cay versus Lookout Cay: weather, snorkeling, and the beach wagon that saved the day A Marceline Market seating hack for anyone traveling with a big group "The Tiana performer for Almost There brought me to literal tears. She had an amazing voice. She was so good. That to me was worth all of the other songs." Support the Show:Book your next Disney vacation with our show sponsor, We Do Travel Right!

Len Testa and Jim Hill are back with Disney news, listener questions, and the conclusion of Jim's history of Disney family suites. They check out the latest Walt Disney World updates, from Magic of Disney Animation previews and EPCOT festival dates to Jollywood Nights demand and new vacation discounts. Then Jim traces how a stalled Pop Century expansion, the success of Nickelodeon Family Suites, and Disney's experiments at All-Star Music ultimately led to Art of Animation. Plus, the guys look at Disney Cruise Line's intriguing adults-only survey and wonder what an expanded Skyliner network might have looked like. NEWS • Magic of Disney Animation previews reveal Olaf Draws, Off the Page, Once Upon a Studio Theater, and the colorful Drawn to Wonderland play area. • EPCOT sets dates for Festival of the Arts and Flower & Garden while Coral Reef prepares to reopen ahead of the holiday season. • Strong Jollywood Nights sales could point toward an even larger role for the after-hours event in future holiday seasons. • Universal Orlando rolls out an aggressive Florida resident ticket offer covering Universal Studios Florida, Islands of Adventure, and Epic Universe. • Disney Cruise Line surveys guests about adults-only sailings, while dozens of upcoming cruises receive special offers and discounted fares. FEATURE • Jim finishes the story of Disney's family suites, beginning with Pop Century's ambitious original plans and the unfinished Legendary Years section. • The surprising success of Nickelodeon Family Suites helped convince Disney that larger family accommodations could be a major draw. • All-Star Music became Disney's testing ground before the company transformed Pop Century's abandoned expansion into Disney's Art of Animation Resort. • Jim explains how Art of Animation's opening was strategically paired with New Fantasyland - and how the Skyliner later transformed the appeal of Disney's value and moderate resorts.

A while back, we did a show on the early growing pains of the Disney Adventure — and more than one of you wrote in afterward saying we needed to talk to someone who'd sailed it more recently, because things have gotten so much better. So we did. Rich just got back from his second Adventure sailing, this time with his whole family instead of just him and his wife, after a points-fueled trip through Shanghai Disney and Hong Kong Disneyland on the way there. In this episode: What's actually changed on the Disney Adventure since Rich's maiden voyage Sailing concierge as a family of four, including the stateroom's oddly configured extra room Why Rich's party of four had a wine pairing tasting entirely to themselves The Marvel Speakeasy's secret entrance, and how you learn it What his 16- and 13-year-old made of the ship's teen and tween spaces Rich's day-trip tips for Shanghai, Hong Kong, and Singapore before and after the cruise "It was our intro to Prima Notte — the first night at Palo, a wine pairing tasting experience for adults only. The four of us in our party were the only four that participated, so we really got a personalized experience from the sommelier, from Palo's manager." — Rich You find, connect and book your next Disney adventure with Rich (and his wife MacKenzie) via their website.

880 · Tasting Disney History: The Unofficial Disney Parks Retro Cookbook What if you could taste your way through Disney Parks history?This week, I'm joined by theme park and travel journalist Carly Caramanna, co-author with Julie Tremaine of The Unofficial Disney Parks Retro Cookbook: 60+ Nostalgic Recipes and Stories of Yesteryear. And while “cookbook” is in the title, this conversation becomes something much bigger: a journey through Disneyland and Walt Disney World history using food as our time machine.Carly shares how discovering a 1981 Walt Disney World dining guide eventually led to the book, why the Adventurers Club became one of her first chapters, and how restaurants can tell us what Disney was trying to become during different eras.We wander through the Chicken of the Sea Pirate Ship Restaurant, Casa de Fritos, Top of the World, Aunt Polly's, Writer's Stop, Pleasure Island, the Handwich, ABC Soap Opera Bistro, Star Wars: Galactic Starcruiser, and more.We also explore why Disney fans become nostalgic for places they never experienced, how old recipes were adapted for modern kitchens, why Disney Legend Bob Gurr was the perfect person to write the foreword, and which Disney foods Carly believes we may someday regret taking for granted.Most of all, we ask whether the food itself is really what we miss, or whether one bite simply brings back the people and versions of ourselves connected to it.If you could bring back one extinct Disney restaurant or menu item tonight, what would it be, and why?
