Do I need to dress up for dinner?

My Insider Tips for Sailing with Disney Cruise Line
Disney cruises are incredibly popular and not often discounted. Booking early means better pricing, more stateroom choices, and priority when selecting dining and excursions.
The Disney Cruise Line Navigator app is your onboard guide for everything from dining rotations, showtimes, and character meetups to onboard texting with your group. It’s essential!
Most sailings feature a Pirate Night, and many families go all-out with costumes. Disney also offers themed nights like Marvel Day at Sea, Pixar Day, and Halloween on the High Seas—so pack accordingly if your cruise includes one!
Most items on Disney’s 24-hour room service menu are included with your cruise fare. Pro tip: Order warm cookies and milk before bed or a light breakfast to enjoy on your balcony.
Disney knows how to throw a party. The Sail-Away Celebration kicks off your cruise with music and characters, while Pirate Night features fireworks at sea (on most Caribbean & Bahamian sailings)—a Disney exclusive!
For a romantic, upscale experience, book Palo (Italian) or Remy (French)—the adult-exclusive restaurants with incredible food, service, and ambiance. Reservations go fast, so book early!
If traveling with little ones, schedule a magical makeover at this popular boutique early—spots fill quickly! Pirates League makeovers are also available on select nights.
Your checked luggage may not arrive until later on embarkation day. Pack swimsuits, sunscreen, and medication in your carry-on—especially if you want to enjoy the pool or beach right away.
Once you get to the family beach, most guests go right—go left for more open loungers and a peaceful spot to relax. And don’t forget to try the Pelican Plunge water slide or rent bikes to explore the island!
