Yes, thanks for making the time and effort to post all of this and give everyone a real understanding of what sailing Disney will be like. If my kids were a lot younger, I might consider it. But they're 19 and 16 and we all have basically outgrown Disney (except my wife, who I think will always love to go to WDW no matter how old we get). Just no way I can justify it now, with how much more they cost and how limited their itineraries are.

Thanks for taking the time to do this report!

So in summary, it was a great experience to be able to enjoy a new cruise line and ship. As a Disney annual pass holder I appreciated the characters and the entertainment and theming and attention to detail. i thought the food in the main dining room was excellent and was well above the average of other cruise lines. The kids club was outstanding and the kids appreciated the activities plus the ability to just go to any themed area whenever they wanted. Entertainment put on by the crew was amazing especially the full production shows and the guest entertainers were above average too. My biggest missed opportunities were not having enough time in the adult areas. I was nearly always trying to do as much as possible with the kids and trying to experience as much as possible so I missed out on some adult areas of the ship and island and some relaxation time. I also missed out on having enough time on Castaway Cay. Trying to do the 5K followed by the early afternoon bad weather limited my time there and the opportunity to experience more of the island. So, would I go on another Disney Cruise despite the price premium? Probably, but it might need to be a good price or only on rare occasion and would not be a regular cruise option. It was an amazing experience and I was glad I did it. I hope everyone enjoyed my cruise recap even if it took me some time to get it all out. When I returned from the cruise I worked two days Then was at Disney World at Hollywood Studios for a day and then became quarantined for the remaining 14 days post cruise due to the newly enacted CDC pandemic guidelines. Since then, I have returned to working full time as a CT scan technologist at an Orlando area hospital and have become a home school teacher and cook three meals a day on my days off. So, this explains a little bit as to why it took me an extended amount of time to complete my recap. Anyway, if you have any questions or comments please feel free to post them.
