Planning Tips and Info for the Disney Cruise Line - Page 3

I bring many shoes. Many shoes. Mot of the time they even travel in pairs.

But, otherwise, I'm fairly edited. Black is a good, basic and fashionable color.

I believe, in cruise wear, esp. through the panama canal, white is the new black .

I'm not a light packer but I have plenty of time to plan this all out so I should be ok. I either need to go shopping or lose weight..I vote lose weight but we'll see how that goes.

Thanks DP for answering some questions before I even have to ask! How great are you

Ok, now I have to learn ship-speak. What is aft, port etc...?

I've read about people bringing cases of water on board, is that allowed? How about wine or hard liquor? Do I pack them in a suitcase or leave them separate?

I've started a cruise notebook and am putting info, questions, tips and tricks in it that I come across. I saw that Passporter had a cruise book from 2005 they are recommending for 2008 travelers. I actually joined the site so I can get an extra %30 off, if I decide to get it.

I can't believe Gary agreed to this!

Aft=back of the boat, bow=front, port=left, starboard=right, muster=fun to say.

Wine and liquor are not allowed (people have been known to get around that though...). If you buy any at ports, you'll be required to check it until you return home.

Actually, we were able to take our rum purchase at St. Thomas right to our room.

Huh? Does that just mean you're not allowed to have a supply of your own, or are you saying there is no wine or liquor even served aboard ship?

And just when are you folks planning this grand excusion anyway??

The official Disney policy is no BYOA but they are will allow it. Just no ice or hard coolers. Put in your carry-on, wrap it well and it can be brought on board.

I think there is an address where you can ship packages to yourself ahead of time floating around on the internets somewhere.

iSm - lots of alcohol on the ship. It's not DisneyLAND afterall
