I recently started looking into it and felt so so overwhelmed lol

My son is just shy of 3 and we are considering a Disney cruise (when DD is old enough she isn't even here yet lol).

I feel like at his age the cruise will be perfect, my DH and I aren't waiting on line all day but he is getting to see all the characters which is what he will love. Best of both worlds vacation wise for us. When DS and DD are older and can understand what waiting on a line is (so like 20 Chat Icon ) we will do the parks.



Just so you know, there ARE lines on the Disney cruise to see characters. In fact, people line up an hour before, and it gets long. We did the cruise last September, and loved it, but you definitely have to wait in many lines for many things. It was not a relaxing cruise. I mean, it could be if you didn't want to participate in family activities, character meet and greets and shows (i.e. you just sit at the pool, eat, and get off at ports).



Oh damn, there goes that. Lol maybe I just hire somebody to dress up as Mickey for DS. Chat Icon



I think it depends on the sailing. We booked a last minute cruise in May and there were no lines for anything. We got great pics with characters on Castaway Cay. There were many times where the characters were standing with no wait. We went when all the kids were back in school after spring break and not out for summer yet. There were like barely any elementary kids on the boat.

We had so much fun that we want to do the Disney cruise during spring break. What is preventing me from booking is spring break crowds the week before Easter. I'm sure our experience would be much different. I HATE WAITING in line. I'd rather not do things if I have to stand in line for more than 20 min tops.



april/May is when we are looking to go...

Did you get a good deal booking last minute or was it the opposite? thanks



It was our first sailing so I'm not sure if it was cheaper or more expensive. We went on a 3 night cruise for around $3000 so like $1000/night. I think Disney cruises are expensive all the time and then crazy expensive during certain breaks like Xmas.

The spring break cruise I am looking into is like $8000 for 7 nights so it is similar on a per night basis.

Off peak sailing was awesome. 5yo DS went on the slides over and over and over again. I believe those lines get very long during crowded sailings. I felt there were a lot of toddlers and preschool aged children. Like I mentioned previously, there were very few elementary kids and zero middle and high school kids. I was surprised to see a lot of couples and adult only. I thought only families would want to cruise on Disney.

eta: I think we did get a deal because I just looked at pricing and we got a deluxe room with verandah for the same price I am seeing for an inside room. Memory is blurry but I think only balcony rooms were available when we booked. I think we booked about 1 month prior to sailing.

We are in the midst of planning a trip in April. My kids aren't interested in the character meals which I'm glad about. We are just going to see the sites. I'm not planning anything ahead if time. Even though it's disney, I'm not in favor on being on a time line

Is there a way to go to Disney without a Masters degree in Disneyology and a year long planning stage?

I only planned the princess breakfast bc my DD is obsessed and I'm so glad I did because it was the highlight of our trip and she still talks about it 2 years later. We stayed offsite, rented a car and did magic kingdom one day, Epcot the other. The other two days we hung by the pool. It was fun and relaxing at the same time and I didn't pressure us into seeing too much. I'm planning on going back in June, and well prob do 3 park days and 3 pool days. I don't feel the need to stay on site although my BFF swears by it.

That's crazy expensive. I am looking at them for end of October and a seven night cruise would be 3500 for four of us!

Thanks for all the responses!
They are definitely making me feel better.
Question for those who recommended staying off site at a higher end hotel/resort. ..where do you recommend that is nearby?
I like a nice hotel....



There is a really nice Ritz Carlton and JW Marriott not too far away.

We usually stay offsite - we have a timeshare at the Sheraton Vistana Villages. I like staying there since they have a washer and dryer and kitchen.

When we went a few years back, we planned a couple of breakfasts and a couple of dinners in advance and pretty much winged it (it was before fast pass plus where I find it was easier to just wing).

Re: Is there a way to go to Disney without a Masters degree in Disneyology and a year long planning stage?

I am with you 150% - we enjoyed our recent trips a lot because Disney immaculate, organized, and there is always something (or nothing if you wish) to do -

Here is my advice - it is supposed to be a VACATION. NOT a job.
DO NOT MAKE IT MISERABLE for yourself, and your kid!

1. If it's possible, go 'off peak' - as in, warm enough to be comfortable, and NOT CROWDED. - IT is MUCH more enjoyable of an expeerience when you aren't battling 500 million people. You can fast pass your 3 prime rides, just b/c it makes your life simple - and do anything else as you feel like it - which is how vacation SHOULD be! I fyou miss your fast pass time.......who the hell cares? The park is empty, you'll wait online for 20 minutes whereas if youi go when it's miserably crowded you'll wait for 3 hours. (NOT happening on my vacation!)
2. If you can swing the cost, stay on property. It's CONVENIENT - No craziness, no driving, you can have a drink here and there when you want (read, NEED) one etc. You don't even have to worry about your bags. - You get off the plane, and your bags show up at your hotel room - Same for going back to the airport. Stick the tags on, and get off the plane at home and pick them up - Thank you Mr. Disney.
3. Remember, your kid has NO CLUE what they are missing if you don't tell them. I was disapponted I missed the Haunted Mansion our last 2 trips lol - my kids had NO clue what's even there -
4. Make reservations for places that won't charge you to cancel last minute - but make resercations. But beleive it or not, it makes things easier to have them. - Order room service if you feel like it, place a Garden Grocer (aka Disney's Peapod) order for snacks - eat ice cream and brownies for dinner - who cares? You're on vacation with your kids - you're not going to dinner at Morton's anyway !!!
5. If you kid doesn't care about meeting the characters, skip the character meals.
6. DON"T PUSH - If your kid is tired or cranky or hot ........don't force them to spend 10 hours in the park. Go back to the hotel (again, staying on property makes this easy) take a nap, go for a walk and see the 500 other things there are to see and do - hit the pool .....whatever.
Just b/c you're "@ Disney" does not mean you're required to spend every waking second in the parks. If you're staying on prpperty there are SO many other great things to see and experience. My kids loved just running up and down the boardwalk and getting ice cream (We stayed at the Yacht Club and then the Beach Club) - walking distance to Epcot & MGM Studios

IMO, there are no MUST DOs in Disney. You do what your family will ENJOY.

But it's definitely worth the trip !!

It depends on the boat also. Wonder is the cheapest (oldest), followed by Magic (2nd oldest, but just refurbed), then Dream (only 3/4 night cruises), then the Fantasy (newest and only 7 night cruises.

We went for 4 nights on the Dream and booked 3 weeks out with an ocean view room (huge porthole window), and paid $2,333 for 1 adult and 2 kids without insurance, lodging the night before, transfers, etc.

definitely this. We hit the park in the morning and took a break after lunch in our room and then we were refreshed. It worked for us.

Re: Is there a way to go to Disney without a Masters degree in Disneyology and a year long planning stage?

Great subject-line! lol

We (my husband and 4 year old daughter) just went for the first time in July. We booked a Disney Resort 2.5 months before our arrival. I booked a character breakfast one of our 7 days there and knew from reading that that had to be done ahead of time. Other than that, we booked things from the Disney App such as dinner reservations and FastPass selections while we were there.

The only thing I'd recommend is having a plan for which parks you will go to during your stay. We bought multi-day passes through them beforehand and were able to save some money.

It was a very easy trip! Enjoy!

Re: Is there a way to go to Disney without a Masters degree in Disneyology and a year long planning stage?

So here's the thing. I have NO desire to go to Disney.
Like when it comes down to that or a root canal, the root canal actually wins.

But here is why. I feel like lately, Disney has become this crazy crazy place that requires dining reservations 8 months in advance, planning for a year, spreadsheets, college degrees, and 15 thousand dollars to throw around.
Oh and also a dictionary of terms- because i have no flipping idea what a fast pass is, or what MAGIC BANDS are, and nor do I want to!


And if you know me, you will know that I don't do planning. I don't do things far in advance. I don't do stress.
Even a little. And especially for a vacation.
I have enough stress at work. I want my vacations STRESS FREE. It can't be work or I shut down and won't do it.
Planning a birthday party stresses me out to the point I don't do those either. So forget this!

But I have this tremendous guilt too- because I know DD would LOVE it there. And I would like to do it before she starts real school next year- so we don't have to go on a school break. (Because that would be WORSE than a root canal to me!) Chat Icon

So- are there any LOW MAINTENANCE ways to do Disney? Like book a hotel ,book a flight and wing it?
Will we be able to eat without reservations farther in advance than the normal human gestation period?

Any under achieving moms out there like me...Please advise!





Ha ha... Holy sweet mother of god. We can be identical twins. I was just doing a Disney search and read this. I literally could have written this word for word! Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon

this is what I learned... i planned reservations, I planned fast passes for rides( you can only plan 3 a day)....

Then when we arrived last month some of the dining reservations opened up 1 -2 days in advance....Even for Chef Mickey which usually sells out 6 months in advance... So if you don't care which particular character meal you are booking then yeah, just wing it.

So much easier to stay on site for transportation. If you can find a "free dining" promo date to book, even better.

I booked my fast pass in advance and then my 5 and 2 year olds did not cooperate in getting over to the park that we lost some... I will tell you if your heart is seat on - MK- Miners Ride , HS - Toy Story Ride, these fast passes fill up fast in advance and I couldn't wing any reservations - they had almost 2 hour waits every time I would check the disney app.

We haven't been to Disney with our son (won't for another few years), but when DH and I did go - we totally winged it. Got a hotel off the resort, spent the day from morning till night walking around - ate when we got hungry (tons of places), etc. It was amazing and I'd do it again in a heart beat.

Thanks for all the responses!
They are definitely making me feel better.
Question for those who recommended staying off site at a higher end hotel/resort. ..where do you recommend that is nearby?
I like a nice hotel....



I would not stay off site for your first trip. It's a complete headache to park your car to get to the Magic Kingdom. You have to park in the parking lot. Take a tram over to the transportation
and ticket center if you get there less than an hour before opening because it will be too far to walk. THEN take the boat or the monorail over to the Magic Kingdom. If you stay on Disney property, you just take the boat/bus or monorail.



I both agree, and disagree with the above. If you are going to do parks on each day of your trip then you are better off staying on site. You have the added perk of magic hours (when the parks open early or stay open late) and can book your fast passes earlier.
If Disney is going to be part, but not all of your trip, then I would suggest staying off site. I personally can't imagine doing parks every day. I need down time and rekaxing, otherwise it doesn't feel like vacation. We love staying at our timeshare Orange Lake for a few reasons. 1- we live the extra space of a timeshare. 2- we love all of the pools. 3- we love the location. Disney is 10 minutes away and there are tons of restaurants close by.




I agree, we stood offsite and parking and everything wasn't a big deal, I don't remember that being an issue.



DH and I went on a whim a few years ago. We stayed at the Embassy Suites which is right outside disney andis a Disney good neighbor. We got our room for $40 a night and it was AMAZING! The even upgraded us to a suite because I asked lol! The had free breakfast every morning and FREE happy hour drinks from 5-7 at night! The pool was amazing and they had a shuttle taht dropped you off right at the gates of Magic Kingdom or what ever park you wanted. You don't have to be a super crazy planning freak to do Disney. Just go and have a blast, There are so many restaurants around the area that youll find food and the characters are in the parades and walk around. We had a great time and didnt plan anything expect the hotel and what day we went where. Even the fast pass was super eay to figure out. Call a travel agent who is a disney specialist and let them figure that stuff out if its important to you to do character dinners and meal plans.

Since I started this post a few months back and see it got bumped I figured I'd chime in,.
I can't do it.
I can't bring myself to do it.
I tried. I tried to wrap my brain around going.
I just can't.
Everytime I tried to plan something I'd freeze up.
It's not in my bones. I'm not a fan of the whole Disney cult situation. I feel like they are just one huge rip off from their parks to the Frozen hype.
Maybe in the future.
For now, what she doesn't know won't hurt her.

I know this is an old post, but I seriously LOL'd when I read the subject. It couldn't be more fitting for the way I feel about Disney.



Exactly. And this is why my family wont be going for a while lol.



Since I started this post a few months back and see it got bumped I figured I'd chime in,.
I can't do it.
I can't bring myself to do it.
I tried. I tried to wrap my brain around going.
I just can't.
Everytime I tried to plan something I'd freeze up.
It's not in my bones. I'm not a fan of the whole Disney cult situation. I feel like they are just one huge rip off from their parks to the Frozen hype.
Maybe in the future.
For now, what she doesn't know won't hurt her.

My dh wants to bring ds at some point, but since i know that he won't plan the trip, and i have ZERO desire to do it, we're safe!
