I feel like each ship is for a specific cruiser Magic-classic Disney/cruise fan Not only is this the OG, but right now it's the only ship that will go to both Disney islands and tangled has that classic "Disney Magic" even though it's newer. Also, panama canal is classic cruising. Wonder-Small ship, culture lovers The ship itself is a little worse than the Magic imo, but a lot of people love the small ship feel and again, the ports are amazing. Fantasy and Dream-DCL superfans These ship captured everything the die-hard Disney cruisers love, from the amazing kids clubs and adult areas to the MDA, there's always something for cruisers of any age. Only difference for these 2 is the Fantasy has a little better adult area and the extra MDA, but the Dream has the better ports, so you can kind of apply some of what I said about the magic to the fantasy and wonder to the dream Triton Class-parks fans/families/t̶h̶e̶ ̶r̶i̶c̶h̶ It's obvious that they spent a lot of effort into the kids clubs and activities, as well as the sheer number of shops on board. A pro for families and a con for adults only cruisers are the adult only areas. It's not secluded and what there is is small. Also, there's 2 interactive dining rooms and only 1 that gives you a little break, but still wrapped in traditional disney fandom For the specific ships, this is what I've gathered: Wish-Magic Kingdom enthusiasts Even in all the promotion materials, this ship was promoted as DCL's Castle. The theming is mostly around your classic princesses and fairytales, even down to the stateroom themes. Treasure-Disney theororists Most areas are themed to properties that are S.E.A related, as well as pixar. Even the tower suite is EPCOT themed, as well as having the dining room that's unique being a Pixar IP Destiny-Heroes and Villains is the theme, pretty much all we know Adventure-all around big ship experience, encompassing the most IPs and utilizing areas, also pretty much all we know My ranking of what I've been on Fantasy, Dream, Wonder, Magic, Wish Tentative ranking including the ships not out yet Fantasy, Dream, Wonder, Magic, Treasure, Adventure, Destiny, Wish
It'll be nice if they have a 5K run, and if you go to both islands on the same cruise and do the 5K, it can be called Challenge of the Islands. Thanks for the video.
Room service can, and they will give you envelopes on the last night for the evening servers and stateroom host you could add cash too. You can also do the tip on the receipt for room service. They just add it to the stateroom charges.
I brought candy from my home state for my stateroom host and servers and wrote thank you notes and gave it to them. They seemed to like it. I also gave an extra tip at the end of the cruise, but I don't know how they felt about that, because I gave those envelope on the last night/day and they were super busy. That name tag tip is SO IMPORTANT! Especially for the survey!
My mother and I went on a Disney Cruise for her 70th birthday. Our server completely forgot about our table. We got our drinks late our food late. Everyone would be leaving before we had our meal. They forgot about my mothers birthday cake. Even though I reminded him four times. Finally she got her cake and they sang to her in a empty room. Everyone else that helped us (outside the dining room) was wonderful. Planing another Disney cruise. If I feel ignored again in the dining room, I’ll just ask for another person.
I like that Disney wants their guests to feel that Disney difference and if you have ever sailed with them, you know exactly what I mean. I do not like the pressure they put on both their cast members and guests with the survey. Disney uses the surveys to achieve industry quality awards, and while I do belive they are well deserved, I don't like that cast members are terrified to be anything but perfect which is an unrealistic standard. I don't like that guests feel pressured to be less honest about their experience because they don't want the slightest imperfection to cost a great cast member their next contract. The survey really doesn't serve to drive improvment because any oportunity for improvment may be severely punished. It is just a very toxic system in my opinion. I love DCL, and the cast, but I hate that survey.
I just know atleast one Dcl imagineer kicked their air after realizing they should've designated Adventure as their "castle at sea", given its huge size, compared to the little ol wish class.
There is only 1 ship from 1 major cruise line that is registered in the United States. Everyone is registered in different countries like Panama and the Bahamas. I can also assume the long strenuous “workers permitting visa process” with immigration to all the crew to every cruise line with every country represented if it was USA based, majority of people have to get working visas based on the ships registry. This out of the states jurisdiction.
Trying to remember to get names while I'm supposed to be enjoying my vacation just doesn't work because it's too much like work. My last cruise only 1 crew member said their name with any authority, and while we remembered it, it was only because on two different occasions he brought us empty butter dishes.
APPRECIATION TIP- Whenever we encounter a crewmember that truely goes above and beyond we always ask permission to take a photo with them or at least a photo of just their name tag to ensure we spell it correctly on the comment card. A nice way to let them know in the moment they are really appreciated and also help our own fuzzy memories after all the fun. Special shout outs to crewmembers Blyton and Gede Rama on the Dream, and Declan, Milos, and Sonya on the Fantasy! 😊
This was so helpful thank you! I've been trying to decide which ship we wanted to try because we've never done a Disney cruise before! I've been leaning towards the Wish so it was nice to see the comparisons here
Do you think English will still be the primary language aboard? We are booked on the Treasure already in the Spring, but may look at this in the fall. Thank you!
I really hope this ship eventually makes it over to Florida (port canaveral and port Everglades can both handle Oasis class ships which is similar to the Adventure). Going on the Treasure in 2025. Can’t wait to actually see what they do with this new ship and make what was a dupe of the oasis class ships into a Disney ship.
They have Halal requests that can be made but it’s typically 5 weeks in advance so they can prepare. Not sure if that will stay the same process for Singapore yet though or if it might be easier.
With all these themed areas I hope they give themed water slides at least and more slides to Edit: And I've never been on a cruise and also I hope they put something like a roller coaster but if they don't an Avengers water slide sign me up
I really enjoy your videos. Your editing and transition is smooth, narration and tone of voice is comfortable, information provided is helpful...overall well done! Thank you ☺️
We were really looking forward to trying this one (as my wife’s side of the family lives in India), however we were disappointed this is only 3/4 night sailings. We have grown accustomed to the 7 night options and prefer having enough time to explore.
I was interested in trying this ship but the cost of round trip airfare from New York City to Singapore is over $2000 per person and the flight is between 32-35 hours each way. That doesn't make sense when you are only sailing for 3 or 4 days. The cost of the cruise will be close to $2000 per person compared to Royal Caribbean that does a similar cruise for $500 per person or less. Disney is going to have trouble in the Asian market with their inflated prices.
Wonderful presentation. I read the releases, the posts, etc. but just having visuals along with the narration and commentary makes a huge difference. Thank you for the efforts in sharing this information with us!!!
With 6700 guests onboard, it is going to be really crowded, especially in the buffet area, pools and other common areas. It will be interesting to see how DCL manage the crowd, which they have been doing very well with the older ships.
How will it be crowded? It’s designed for that many people, Royal Caribbean & Celebrity seem to cope ok with those sort of numbers so why is this different? It’s a huge ship for that reason.
@@stevefindlater302 It's designed to accomodate these passengers but it will still feel crowded because people tend to congregate in the most popular areas, like the pool, the buffet, the rotational dining restaurants, the theaters etc. The theater will need to have a capacity of 3400 for 2 sittings, and that is one huge theater. The rotational dining venues will also be huge and it will take a long time to serve. I have sailed on the Magic, Wonder and the Fantasy, the difference is noticeable. Everything is slower on the Fantasy due to the need to move more people around. That is why luxury cruises have very small passenger loads in smaller ships to avoid of the sense of crowdedness. For me, I still prefer the older Magic and Wonder because they feel more intimate and less hurried. I'm not even considering the Wish because I think it will feel crowded..
@@stevefindlater302 RCCL mainly designs their ships with guest ratios in mind. Oasis class is almost 50k tons larger than this ship with many less passengers. So safe to say crowds might be crazy. DCL just bought a half baked and half completed eyesore and threw some theming on it and called it a day
